Investigating the link between abdominal aortic aneurysm and primary lung cancer
Official title: Epidemiology of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm With Concomitant Primary Lung Cancer
Run by First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University · NCT06775821 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is trying to see if there's a connection between abdominal aortic aneurysms and lung cancer by looking at the health and habits of 2000-3000 lung cancer patients.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are patients aged 20-90 who have been diagnosed with primary lung cancer.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who refuse to undergo abdominal aortic imaging screening will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to explore the prevalence and relationship between abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and primary lung cancer by collecting detailed information from 2000-3000 patients diagnosed with lung cancer. The study will analyze lifestyle habits, medical history, and laboratory indicators to identify risk factors associated with AAA in lung cancer patients. By conducting this multi-center prospective epidemiological investigation, the researchers hope to provide scientific evidence that can guide screening and prevention strategies for AAA in this patient population. The findings are expected to improve the treatment and prognosis of lung cancer patients, enhancing their long-term survival rates.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved screening and prevention strategies for abdominal aortic aneurysm in patients with primary lung cancer, potentially enhancing their quality of life and survival rates.
How similar studies have gone: While there is limited data on the exact relationship between AAA and lung cancer, previous studies have suggested a notable prevalence, indicating that this investigation could provide valuable insights into an underexplored area.
