简要总结
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends annual lung cancer screening (LCS) with low-dose CT for adults aged 50-80 with a ≥20 pack-year smoking history who currently smoke or quit within the past 15 years. Despite insurance coverage, only 17% of eligible Iowans were screened in 2024. Barriers include the complexity of screening and competing demands in primary care. To address these challenges, investigators propose a two-part intervention: a blood-based screening test to simplify LCS and a community pharmacist-led referral program integrated into routine pharmacy care.
Eligible patients will be identified at Greenwood Pharmacy in Waterloo, Iowa. Interested individuals will be consented by a pharmacist and engaged in shared decision-making about LCS. Participants may decline screening, complete the DELFI Diagnostics FirstLook lung cancer screening blood test, or pursue CT screening through their primary care physician. Those choosing the blood test will be referred to Cedar Valley Family Medicine. Patients with a positive result will complete a standard shared decision-making visit with their PCP and, if appropriate, undergo confirmatory CT imaging. Patients with a negative result will enter a screening cohort and be re-screened annually for an additional year.
详细描述
The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends annual lung cancer screening (LCS) with low dose Computerized Tomography (CT) scans for adults aged 50-80 with a 20-pack year smoking history who are current smokers or who have quit within the last 15 years. Despite these recommendations and Medicaid/Medicare coverage, only about 17% of eligible patients were screened in Iowa in 2024. Barriers to implementing LCS are multifactorial and include patient and clinician barriers, specifically complexity of screening and primary care physician competing demands. To overcome these barriers, investigators propose a two-part intervention: first, a blood test, that reduces the complexity of lung cancer screening and second, a community pharmacist referral program that can be performed as part of routine care received in the pharmacy.
LCS eligible participants will be identified in Greenwood Pharmacy in Waterloo, Iowa and invited to participate in a lung cancer screening study. If they are interested, the pharmacist will review the consent form with them, explaining the study and answering any questions they have. After the consent is signed, the participant will engage in a shared decision-making conversation about LCS with the pharmacist. As part of this conversation, patients will be told they are eligible for LCS and given three options: Decline to participate; agree to participate and get DELFI blood test; or agree to participate but decline blood test and pursue a CT scan with their PCP. Patients agreeable to the blood test will be referred to Cedar Valley Family Medicine, where they can receive the DELFI FirstLook Lung Cancer Screening Test. Those with a positive (elevated) blood test will have a standard of care clinic appointment with the primary care physician at Cedar Valley Family Medicine for a shared decision-making visit about LCS and if warranted, order confirmatory CT scanning which is standard of care and billed to the study. Patients with a negative blood test will be added to the "Screening Cohort" and approached annually for a total of 2 years to participate in screening.

研究组 & 干预措施
DELFI FirstLook Lung Cancer Screening Blood Test
Participants may choose to receive the DELFI Diagnostics FirstLook Lung test, a blood-based screening test designed to support early detection of lung cancer. The test analyzes patterns in cell-free DNA fragments using whole-genome sequencing and machine-learning techniques. Designed to augment traditional low-dose CT screening, it offers a minimally invasive and accessible option for early lung cancer detection.
If a participant elects to receive this test, a blood sample will be collected at a study clinic and sent to a DELFI Diagnostics lab without any personal identifying health information attached. After processing, results are returned to the study team. Participants will be notified if results are not elevated, in which case repeating the test in one year is recommended. If results are elevated, study staff will recommend follow-up screening with a low-dose CT scan from local clinic for further evaluation.
Both the blood test and CT will be provided by the study at no cost.
干预措施: DELFI Diagnostics FirstLook Lung Cancer Screening Blood Test (Diagnostic Test)
No lung cancer screening
Participants chose to not participate in lung cancer screening. Annually, participants will be informed about lung cancer screening options and given the opportunity to participate in one of the screening options. Participants will have the ability to change their mind and choose one of the lung cancer screening options in between their annual screening discussion.
Low-Dose CT
Participants can choose to follow current US Preventive Services Task Force recommendations of a low-dose CT scan ordered through their primary care physician.
