Lung cancer symptoms include a cough that does not go away, unexplained weight loss, or having a persistent croaky voice. But, you could also be at risk of lung tumour signs if you have these lumps on bumps on your skin.
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers to be diagnosed in the UK, said the NHS. Almost 45,000 people are diagnosed with lung cancer every year in the UK. There are usually no signs or symptoms of the condition, but many people can develop some tell-tale signs. One of those symptoms is small bumps on the surface of the skin, said the American Cancer Society.
Oncimmune (LON:ONC) is a leader in the development, manufacture and marketing of personalised immunodiagnostics for the screening, detection and care of cancer. The Group has pioneered the development of autoantibody tests that can detect cancer up to four years earlier than other methods and can be applied to a very wide range of solid tumour types. The Company’s first product, EarlyCDT®-Lung, was launched in 2012, as a CLIA test in the USA and since then over 156,000 commercial tests have been sold. EarlyCDT®-Lung is available through physicians in the US and also privately in the UK, Europe & Asia. EarlyCDT®-Lung is being used in the largest ever randomised trial for the early detection of lung cancer using biomarkers, the National Health Service (NHS) Scotland ECLS study of 12,210 high-risk smokers. EarlyCDT®-Liver launched in May 2018 and further tests are in development.
