Proposed Project 

Exploratory Research with People 

Living with Lung Cancer—New— 

Division of Cancer Prevention and 

Control (DCPC), National Center for 

Chronic Disease Prevention and Health 

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Lung cancer is the most common 

cancer and is the leading cause of 

cancer related mortality in the world. 

Each year, over 215,000 Americans are 

diagnosed with lung cancer and a 

similar number die from the disease. 

The five-year survival rate for lung 

cancer is 15%. The needs of individuals 

affected by lung cancer have received 

less attention in health care research 

than the needs of individuals with other 

types of cancer. This results in a gap in 

knowledge about a significant number 

of people living with the diagnosis of 

lung cancer. 

CDC proposes to conduct formative 

research to improve understanding of 

the challenges and needs of individuals 

living with lung cancer. Because 

smoking is one of the primary risk 

factors for lung cancer, the research will 

include respondents with different 

types of smoking history. This research 

will explore the influence of smoking 

status on individual experience with 

cancer diagnosis, stigma and 

discrimination, as well as counseling 

and support services. For example, 

individuals who have never smoked 

may face challenges in obtaining an 

initial diagnosis of lung cancer, while 

current or former smokers may feel 

subject to judgments or blame from 

others, including medical providers as 

well as family and friends. 

Information will be collected during 

in-depth interviews (IDIs) with 27 

respondents between the ages of 30 and 

80 who have been diagnosed with lung 

cancer. Three different types of 

respondents will be recruited from 

partnering clinical practices in two U.S. 

cities (Greensboro, North Carolina and 

Temple, Texas): individuals who are 

Smokers (9), individuals who are 

Former Smokers (9), and individuals 

who Never Smoked (9). Each telephone 

interview will last approximately one 

hour. 

The results of this exploratory 

research project will inform future 

research activities and the development 

of health-related information and 

services that will benefit individuals 

living with lung cancer. Project goals 

support the goals for cancer and 

communication described in Healthy 

People 2010. 

There are no costs to respondents 

other than their time. The total 

estimated burden hours are 50.
