Lung cancer occurs when cells inside the lung grow abnormally. As more cells grow, they start to form a tumour and may spread to other areas in the body. There are two main types of lung cancer:

  • Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC); about 80% to 85%
  • Small cell lung cancer (SCLC); about 10% to 15%

There is a lot to consider when deciding whether to participate in a clinical trial. Any clinical trial includes risks, which the study doctor will review with you. Make sure you understand the risks before participating.
