What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Blood sample collection for telomere biomarker analysisDiagnostic test

    Also called Blood sample

    Peripheral blood samples will be collected to measure telomere-related biomarkers that will be used for the development of a predictive algorithm.

  • Telomere biomarker analysisDiagnostic test

    Also called Blood sample

    Laboratory analysis of telomere-associated biomarkers in blood samples to generate data for the development of a predictive clinical algorithm.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine the risk of developing lung cancer, expressed as a percentage, in order to assist doctors in the diagnosis of lung cancer.

    Measured: At study enrollment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate the performance characteristics of the predictive algorithm, which combines clinical parameters and telomeric variables, in a cohort of cases and controls.

    To determine the algorithm's ability to detect lung cancer by analysing its sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and overall accuracy.

    Measured: At study enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood sample collection for telomere biomarker analysis and Telomere biomarker analysis in people with Lung Cancer (Diagnosis) and Health Adult Subjects, run by Grupo Español de Investigación en Diagnóstico y Tratamiento Hipertemprano de Enfermedades (GeDiTPhe) at 12 sites in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Antonio Cubillo, MD (917 56 79 97, acubillo@hmhospitales.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the risk of developing lung cancer, expressed as a percentage, in order to assist doctors in the diagnosis of lung cancer. (time frame: At study enrollment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Mar 2026.
