Brief Summary: This prospective study aims to detect early-stage lung cancer using low-dose computed tomography LDCT in Mexicans aged 50 or older who are current or former heavy smokers non-smokers exposed to significant wood smoke or diagnosed with COPD Annual LDCT spirometry and serum biomarker tests will be conducted over 3 years and a follow-up lasting up to 10 years
Detailed Description: This prospective cohort study aims to detect lung cancer in early stages using LDCT scans in Mexican individuals aged 50 years or older Eligible participants comprise current smokers with a history of 20 pack-years former smokers who have quit within the past 15 years non-smokers exposed to wood smoke more than 100 hoursyear or patients diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD
Secondary objectives include assessing the 10-year mortality rate the association of lung cancer with immunologic biomarkers the demographic characterization of participants the psychological impact of an LC screening program the histological profiling of positive cases lung function changes in at-risk individuals and the clinical staging distribution at diagnosis
The study will conduct annual LDCT scans lung function tests spirometry anxiety and depression assessments and serum biomarkers tests over 3 years Positive LDCT results will adhere to LUNG-RADS guidelines and be managed by a multidisciplinary team Prevention strategies including tobacco cessation treatments will be provided Follow-up will continue for 5 and 10 years or until an event of completion occurs cancer diagnosis end of follow-up or death
