Lung Cancer Clinical Trial

Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle-Aspiration With Suction in Obtaining Samples From Patients With Suspected Nodal Metastatic Lung Cancer

Summary

This trial studies how well endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle-aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) with suction works in obtaining samples from patients with suspected lung cancer that has spread to the nodal. EBUS-TBNA samples obtained with additional suction may help to improve material-amounts and decrease blood contamination in the samples.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate if suction applied with a vacuum syringe during EBUS-TBNA sampling helps to obtain more material for molecular analyses.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo bronchoscopy with EBUS-TBUA first without and then with applied vacuum.
