Julian Marin Acevedo
50 years - 80 years
All genders
Study purposse:  Describe the demographics, risk factors for lung cancer, and baseline Lung Rads score of individuals enrolled in this observational study. Using descriptive statistics, compare the demographics and Lung Rads score of the participants enrolled in this study with those participating in the NLST and NELSON studies. Using descriptive statistics, compare the demographics and Lung Rads score of the participants enrolled in this study with a cohort of participants in the lung screening program at IU HealthParticipants will be recruited by advertisements and at community events. Participants will undergo their lung screening at IU Health fixed lung screening sites or through the IU Health mobile lung screening program.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Consistent with most oncology trials, patients are not actively “recruited,” but are screened by their physician for appropriate clinical trial(s) at the time of their routine clinic visit. Occasionally, a patient may be a self-referral or physician referral, but are still screened for appropriate clinical trials at the time of their routine clinic visit. PI and staff may send copies of relevant consent forms to these patients to look over prior to actually consenting or enrolling them. This may take place at the patient's visit at which the consent is presented or the patient's next visit to the outpatient hematology/oncology clinic.  Interested in participating?

Help us learn how to better support rural families facing cancer.  Take part in this study and help improve care for caregivers like you.  Caregivers play a vital role in helping cancer patients get the best possible care. But caregiving—especially in rural communities—can be demanding and emotionally overwhelming. Many caregivers face challenges related to stress, mental health, and balancing complex at‑home treatment responsibilities. Rural caregivers often face additional barriers such as fewer local resources and longer travel distances for care.That is why researchers at Indiana University are looking to speak with caregivers of people with solid tumor cancers who live in rural areas of Indiana.Your experiences matter.  By sharing your story, you can help shape better care for other caregivers and the people they love.
