DEPRECAP: Lung Cancer Screening Programme by LDCT for Patients With COPD or Emphysema.
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
The DEPRECAP (Early detection of lung cancer) study is an ongoing, prospective, longitudinal, multicenter lung cancer screening program that recruited individuals with COPD or emphysema from the pulmonary clinics of Fundación Jiménez Díaz University Hospital and Villalba General Hospital, in Madrid, Spain.
The aim of this observational study is to determine the scientific evidence needed to study the benefit and potential effects of lung cancer screening in this group of patients and to determine the long-term effects of the intervention in reducing the high mortality rates associated with late-stage lung cancer diagnosis in a very high-risk population, to address under-diagnosis of COPD and to promote smoking cessation. This leads to the creation of a registry with clinical, radiological, functional data and biological samples for future studies in this cohort of patients to provide the scientific evidence needed to study the benefit and potential effects of screening for lung cancer and other tobacco-related pathologies diagnosed by Low-dose CT (LDCT)
