Low-dose CT of the Chest (LDCT) + Sampling for Biomarker Assays: LDCT scan results will be reported based on the Lung-RADS classification. Participants will be stratified into various Lung-RADS groups based on the CT appearance and size of nodules. An alphanumeric Lung-RADS score will be assigned to each subject which will guide the downstream management of screened participants. All subjects will be required to donate drawn blood samples (up to 30 ml) at every LDCT visit during screening surveillance, and at every LDCT/CT scan and/or biopsy visits during clinical surveillance for blood-based biomarker assays development and characterization. Subjects may also be asked to provide a sample of urine, saliva and breath for biomarker discovery.
This is a single arm screening study. All eligible participants will be subjected to low dose CT (LDCT) screening and biomarker testing.
The primary aim of the study is to determine the feasibility of conducting LDCT screening in at-risk populations for lung cancer in Singapore:
* For the smoker population, LDCT screening for lung cancer will be implemented in accordance to Academy of Medicine, Singapore screening test guidelines with the aim of investigating the feasibility of instituting lung cancer screening clinical service in Singapore.
* For the non-smoker population, LDCT screening for lung cancer will be introduced to systematically collect baseline data to better understand and provide evidence for lung adenocarcinoma in never-smoker phenotype that is unique to East Asia/Singapore. This will help address unmet needs in local population research as reported by Academy of Medicine, Singapore, to validate risk factors and inform future screening guidelines for the at-risk population.
Screening results will be reported based on Lung CT Screening Reporting \& Data System (Lung-RADS).
