Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study aims to evaluate the performance of serum free fatty acids as biomarkers for the identification of lung cancer.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: serum sample

Detailed Description

We will compare the concentration of free fatty acids and their metabolites between patients with lung cancer and control pulmonary patients without known cancer. The diagnostic accuracy will be assessed for potential predictors.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Lung adenocarcinoma patients

Serum samples were collected from patients with lung cancer at the time of their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of treatment. Diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma was based on pathologic analysis.

Other: serum sample
Serum samples from lung cancer patients were collected at the time of their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of treatment. Serum samples of control subjects were collected from a biobank

Control matched to adenocarcinoma

Control subjects without known cancer and aged from 40 to 75 years should meet at least one of the following criteria: (1) current or ex-smoker with at least a 10 pack-year history, (2) a first-degree relative with a history of lung cancer, or (3) a clinical diagnosis of COPD.

Other: serum sample
Serum samples from lung cancer patients were collected at the time of their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of treatment. Serum samples of control subjects were collected from a biobank

Lung squamous cell carcinoma patients

Serum samples were collected from patients with lung cancer at the time of their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of treatment. Diagnosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma was based on pathologic analysis.

Other: serum sample
Serum samples from lung cancer patients were collected at the time of their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of treatment. Serum samples of control subjects were collected from a biobank

Control matched to squamous cell

Control subjects without known cancer and aged from 40 to 75 years should meet at least one of the following criteria: (1) current or ex-smoker with at least a 10 pack-year history, (2) a first-degree relative with a history of lung cancer, or (3) a clinical diagnosis of COPD.

Other: serum sample
Serum samples from lung cancer patients were collected at the time of their diagnosis, prior to the initiation of treatment. Serum samples of control subjects were collected from a biobank

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Compare Concentration of Fatty Acids and Their Metabolites [At the time of diagnosis, prior to the initiation of lung cancer treatment]

    Biochemical analysis of serum sample was conducted by an investigator who was strictly blinded to cancer status and patient characteristics.
