Abstract:
The cohort study of lung cancer in high-risk population in communities in China was a part of Lung Cancer Cohort Study initiated in 2017 and funded by Precision Medicine Research of National Key Research and Development Program. Around 50 000 participants from the communities were enrolled from 7 cities in 7 regions in China. Information about the risk factors for lung cancer were collected and the populations at high risk for lung cancer were identified. Then, low-dose CT (LDCT) screening of lung cancer was conducted in the populations at high risk, and further information about the diagnosis of lung cancer cases and death cases were collected. Therefore, a community population-based cohort was established for lung cancer risk factor exposure survey, high risk population evaluation, LDCT screening and lung cancer case and death follow up. Meanwhile, biological samples were collected from all the participants in the cohort to support the future precision medicine research of lung cancer.
