This trial is looking for patients with non-small cell lung cancer who are having surgery to remove their tumors. Participants will provide samples from their airways during the surgery to help researchers study their cancer.
You may be able to join if
- I am at least 18 years old
- I am having surgery to remove my lung cancer
- I might have had lung cancer surgery or radiation before
You may not be able to join if
- I have an active infection or pneumonia
- My surgeon thinks taking airway samples would cause me extra trouble

Check Your EligibilityThe purpose of this study is to find out if fluid rinsed from peoples' airways (bronchial washing samples) during routine surgery to remove (resect) their non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors contains enough vesicles to do testing that may help the researchers learn more about their NSCLC.
