Who may be able to join
- People who are between 50 and 80 years old.
- People who are current smokers (have smoked at least one cigarette in the past 7 days) and have a smoking history that would make them eligible for lung cancer screening (at least 20 "pack years" of smoking — confirm with trial site if unsure how this is calculated).
- People who currently live in California.
- People who are able to understand and follow the study procedures for the full length of the study.
- People who are able to read and understand a written consent form, or who have a legal guardian or representative who can do so, and who are willing to sign it.
Who may not be able to join
Each point below is a reason the trial team may not be able to accept someone. It is not a list of requirements to meet.
- People who do not smoke.
- People who have already been diagnosed with lung cancer.
- People who are currently receiving hospice care.
- People whose own doctors do not think it would be appropriate for them to take part, for example due to a psychiatric illness or a significant difficulty with thinking or memory that would affect their ability to participate.

If this is close to home
This page includes language about advanced illness, prognosis, or palliative care, because that is how the trial's eligibility criteria are written. Seeing it set out plainly can land hard, whether it is about you or about someone you are caring for. You do not have to be at a crisis point to talk to someone.
- Griefline — grief and loss counselling, 9am to 6pm weekdays and midday to 6pm weekends (AEST/AEDT): 1300 845 745
- Carer Gateway — practical and emotional support if you are caring for someone, 8am to 5pm weekdays: 1800 422 737
- Canteen — for 12 to 25 year olds affected by cancer, their own or a family member's: 1800 945 215
- Palliative Care Australia — directory of palliative care services near you: palliativecare.org.au
- Lifeline — 24/7, for any kind of distress, at any hour the services above are closed: 13 11 14
Palliative care is not the same as giving up on treatment, and it is not only for the last weeks of life. It is symptom and comfort care that can run alongside active treatment, including a clinical trial.
