DNA Repair and Genetic Susceptibility to Lung Cancer

Completed

• Conditions: Second Primary Lung Cancer; Lung Cancer; Single Primary Lung Cancer
• Interventions: Other: Blood draw and Questionnaires

• Registration Number: NCT00611598
• Lead Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to help us better understand the cellular changes that may lead to the development of lung cancer. We want to compare people with a second primary lung cancer with those who have only a first primary lung cancer. We hope to use the information obtained in this study as the basis for future studies and will not regard the results from this study as final.

We will analyze your blood cells and DNA to measure the changes in several genes that we believe may be involved in lung cancer. We also want to evaluate the capacity for your DNA to repair itself.

Inclusion Criteria

• Cases will be eligible for inclusion if:
• They have been diagnosed with a second primary lung cancer, and
• They speak English or a language for which we have a translated consent form, and

Exclusion Criteria

• Subjects who do not meet the inclusion criteria as either cases or controls will not be eligible for this study.
• Control subjects who have a history of another cancer, other than nonmelanoma skin cancer or a first primary lung cancer, will not be eligible for this study.
• Control subjects who otherwise meet the eligibility requirements above but who have had chemotherapy and/or are currently being treated with chemotherapy will be excluded from the functional assay, but not from the genotyping.
