简要总结
Kidney cancer is the 8th most common cancer in Yorkshire. It has a poor survival rate, with only 6 out of 10 patients diagnosed with kidney cancer still alive after 5 years. This is partly because many people with kidney cancer don't have any symptoms. In some of these people, kidney cancer is only found by chance during investigations for other reasons. In others, it is often not diagnosed until the disease has passed the point at which we can easily cure it.
Screening for kidney cancer has the potential to pick up these cancers earlier and increase the number of people who can be cured. The Yorkshire Lung Screening Trial offers people aged 55-80 with a history of smoking a CT scan as part of a lung health check. This group of people is also at increased risk of developing kidney cancer. Our new study, the Yorkshire Kidney Screening Trial, will piggyback on this trial to offer an extra CT scan for kidney cancer. The extra scan will take 10 seconds. By the end of the study we will understand whether it is workable to roll this out more widely and whether people take up this extra scan.
详细描述
Background to YLST and link with YKST
YKST will be offered to participants of YLST. In brief, YLST is a community-based screening programme funded by Yorkshire Cancer Research which uses mobile units across Leeds through a Zelen's design study, allowing assessment of the overall effect of screening Yorkshire people who are current smokers or ex-smokers and therefore at high-risk for lung cancer. YLST is one of the World's largest lung cancer screening trials and nesting YKST within this on-going trial provides a unique opportunity to both add value to this existing trial and provide much needed data relating to future RCC screening.
In YLST, ~45,000 people were invited to participate in the study with 6,892 eventual participants estimated to attend for the first of two rounds of low-dose CT (LDCT) screening (called T0 and T2 respectively). To identify eligible individuals, General Practices within the Leeds CCG area provided consent for interrogation of their Primary Care databases
At the first Lung Health Check (T0) relevant clinical and demographic information were collected and participants were offered a LDCT scan either immediately or to return another day at their preference. Two years later the participants who attended for an initial Lung Health Check are invited back for a follow-up Lung Health Check (T2) which includes a second LDCT scan. In YKST we are asking participants in this T2 round of YLST, from 10 May 2021 to 31 Oct 2022, to undergo an abdominal CT scan in addition to the repeated CT chest.
