“Sometimes tests can produce results that are not meaningful or actionable, and these results can cause people to have undue anxiety,” said Carrie Lee, MD, MPH, professor of medicine at UNC School of Medicine and medical director of UNC Lineberger’s Clinical Trials Office. “By conducting scientifically rigorous studies of cancer screening technologies, we want to develop a better understanding about whether a positive test result is actually associated with a cancer diagnosis, and whether early detection will have a meaningful impact on the individual’s prognosis and survival.”
