Study Overview

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Gathering information about genetic and environmental factors from patients with lung cancer and their partners and first-degree relatives may help doctors learn more about the disease.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is looking at the patterns, causes, and control of disease in patients with lung cancer in the North Trent (England) region.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To establish a resource bank of high quality genomic and plasma DNA and tumor and serum samples linked to clinical data obtained from detailed family history and lifestyle questionnaires from patients with lung cancer and from their partners and first-degree relatives for genetic epidemiology studies of lung cancer.

Secondary

  • To study single nucleotide polymorphisms for candidate lung cancer susceptibility genes in genomic DNA samples from patients with lung cancer and from their partners and first-degree relatives.
  • To study genetic changes of lung cancer in plasma DNA samples from patients with lung cancer and from their partners and first-degree relatives.
