Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Lung cancer compact panel test success rate: Percentage of cases with successful gene panel test in Lung Cancer Compact Panel Dx among those diagnosed with class IV or higher non-small cell lung cancer by EBUS-TBNA or EUS-B-FNA cytology. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Association between the amount of DNA and RNA extracted in the Lung Cancer Compact Panel Dx and cytological diagnosis of class IV and V. Percentage of tumor cell content using Papanicolaou stained specimens for cytology diagnosis and association with class IV and V in cytology and success rate of the Lung Cancer Compact Panel. At the time of the examination, investigate whether there are any changes in vital signs (e.g., decreased SpO2 or blood pressure changes), uncontrolled bleeding, or other complications that may require interruption of the examination. The presence or absence of complications (e.g., mediastinitis or other serious infections) that may develop late on the day following the examination and one week later will be evaluated. | — |
