Brief Summary:
The main objective of the study is to measure adherence to a lung cancer screening program using low-dose thoracic CT.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
High-Risk Cancer Lung Cancer Procedure: Low Dose chest CT Scan for Lung Cancer Screening Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Secondary objectives

  1. To evaluate patient compliance over the entire duration of the screening program
  2. To assess patient smoking cessation
  3. To describe radiation doses received during CT scans
  4. To identify organizational constraints for general practitioners
  5. To compare stages at diagnosis before and after implementation of screening program

Conduct of research Eligible patients will be identified by general practitioners. Patients included will require a low-dose thoracic CT scan to be performed by a radiologist of their choice. Smoking cessation will be systematically proposed, and will be carried out by the general practitioner or a tobaccologist.

The radiation dose from thoracic CT scans should not exceed 100 mGy.cm Product Dose Length (i.e. < 1.5 mSv). Imaging reports will be forwarded to the general practitioner.

If the first CT scan is negative (T0): a second scan will be scheduled 1 year later (T1). If this second scan is also negative, in the absence of lung cancer risk factors other than smoking, scans will then be performed every two years. In the presence of a risk factor for lung cancer (other than tobacco), screening will remain annual.

In the event of a result classified as uncertain: a follow-up scan is scheduled at 3 months ; if the follow-up scan is negative, the next screening will be scheduled 1 year after this follow-up scan. If the screening performed 1 year later is also negative, subsequent screenings will be performed annually.

In the event of a positive result: the general practitioner will refer the patient to a pneumologist of his/her choice for further examinations; data from these additional examinations will be collected.

The screening protocol may evolve in line with recommendations issued by the French National Authority for Health (HAS).

For participants undergoing CT scan at the imaging department of Emile Muller hospital in Mulhouse (GHRMSA), a blood sample will be collected (optional) for subsequent biomarker assays.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Patients with a high risk of lung cancer Procedure: Low Dose chest CT Scan for Lung Cancer Screening
Low dose CT scans will be performed for three years




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Rate of included patients having undergone the first screening scan [ Time Frame: T0 ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Rate of patients who refused to participate in the screening program [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
  2. Rate of included patients having completed CT scans at each stage of follow-up [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
  3. Number of patients newly committed to smoking cessation during the screening period [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
  4. Tobacco consumption [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
  5. Radiation doses received at each CT scan [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
  6. Organizational constraints of the screening program [ Time Frame: before starting the study ]
    Organizational constraints of the screening program will be assessed on a subgroup of general practitioners by semi-structured interviews

  7. Stage at diagnosis (TNM classification) of patients with lung cancer [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
    The stages at diagnosis of patients with lung cancer included in the study will be compared with those of undetected patients (data from the Haut-Rhin Cancer Registry).
