Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary objective is to investigate whether the eNose can discriminate the smellprints obtained before and after 1 cycle of chemotherapy in patients with specific histological types of lung cancer (NSCLC: adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and SCLC).<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The secondary objectives are: <br /><br>1. To investigate whether the eNose can discriminate between the baseline smellprints of patients with different histological types of lung cancer (NSCLC: adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and SCLC);<br /> <br>2. To investigate whether the pre-chemotherapy smellprint is related to: <br /><br>a. the stage of the disease according to the stage grouping of the Mountain classification (NSCLC) [21] or division into LD or ED (SCLC) [2];<br /><br>b. metabolic activity of the disease as assessed by Standard Uptake Value (SUV) on PET-CT scan;<br /><br>3. To investigate whether the potential change in smellprint after 1 cycle of chemotherapy is related to tumour response (determined after the second cycle of chemotherapy) according to the RECIST criteria. <br>
