Analysis of Breath Volatile Organic Compounds Using Mass Spectrometry
Sponsor: University of Oklahoma
Summary
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether volatile organic compound (VOC) signatures detected in the breath of patients with cancer can serve as a potential screening tool for the early detection of cancer.

Proton Transfer Reaction Mass Spectrometry Analysis
This is a noninvasive intervention. Participants will be asked to provide a breath sample using a disposable mouthpiece equipped with a saliva/moisture trap and a non-rebreathing valve. Breath samples will be collected through normal, steady exhalation. The entire breath collection process is expected to take no more than 30 minutes to complete.
