Details and patient eligibility

About

The purpose of this study is to assess the awareness of eligibility of lung cancer screening in Hispanic/LatinX Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) survivors using a survey questionnaire; and to understand the barriers to screening using qualitative interviews.

Enrollment: 44 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 80 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Participants must be able to understand, and sign informed consent form.
• Age ≥ 18 years.
• Participants must self-identify as Hispanic/LatinX.
• Individuals must be head and neck cancer survivors (treated locally with surgery, radiation alone, or definitive chemoradiation ≥ 5 years earlier and have no signs/symptoms to suggest recurrence of disease).
• Subjects that meet lung cancer (LC) screening eligibility according to United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF21) and/or National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN). For patients with a history of head and neck cancers, the NCCN recommends annual screening with low dose computerized tomography (LDCT) in those who have had a history of 20 pack years of smoking or more. USPSTF21 LC screening eligibility includes adults ages 50-80 that are current smoker or former smokers that quit within 15 years and have a 20 pack-year history or more of smoking.

Exclusion criteria

• Individuals with pre-established diagnosis of lung cancer.
• Participants with current diagnosis of any active malignancy.
• Subjects that had undergone lung imaging within previous 3 years.
• Pregnant or nursing mothers.
• Individuals that received head and neck related treatment less than 5 years before screening.
• Individuals with < 20 pack year history of smoking.
• Subjects with previous history of distant metastatic head and neck cancer.
