Registry Trial for Young-onset Lung Cancer Patients

This observational study is looking at the experiences of people aged 18 to 50 who have lung cancer. We want to understand how a special care program (called YOLC) affects your satisfaction with your care. We also want to learn about the unique needs of young lung cancer patients and their families, and how joining peer support groups might help. You would be asked to complete surveys at different times over several years to share your experiences. The goal is to see if the YOLC program improves satisfaction and to better understand the journey of young adults with lung cancer.

What's involved
You would complete an intake survey and then repeat surveys at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months.
