Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Survival among patients at different stages of lung cancer and treatment will be measured using questionnaires along with medical chart data to monitor treatment and disease progression
Study lung cancer development in a case control study. We will look at three separate outcome measures specified below
20 years
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Overall survival
20 years
Progression-free survival
20 years
Treatment toxicities
20 years
Eligibility Criteria
Lung cancer cases and healthy controls are recruited from Massachusetts General Hospital patient population. Cases come from Thoracic Surgery or Cancer Center. Controls are usually spouses or friends of cases, or in some cases unrelated to a specific case.
You may qualify if:
- healthy controls: participants without evidence of any cancer
- cases: pathology proven primary lung cancer
You may not qualify if:
- younger than 18 years old
