Prior studies have shown that cells in the buccal mucosa carry a molecular signature of lung cancer among the cigarette‑smoking population, the phenomenon known as field carcinogenesis or field of injury. Thus, we hypothesized that chromatin structural changes in buccal mucosa can be predictive of lung cancer. However, the small size of the chromatin chain (approximately 20 nm) folded into chromatin packing domains, themselves typically below 300 nm in diameter, preclude the detection of alterations in intradomain chromatin conformation using diffraction‑limited optical microscopy.  \nIn this study, we developed an optical spectroscopic statistical nanosensing technique to detect chromatin packing domain changes in buccal mucosa as a lung cancer biomarker: chromatin‑sensitive partial wave spectroscopic microscopy (csPWS). Artificial intelligence (AI) was applied to csPWS measurements of chromatin alterations to enhance diagnostic performance. Our AI‑enhanced buccal csPWS nanocytology of 179 patients at two clinical sites distinguished Stage‑I lung cancer versus cancer‑free controls with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.92 ± 0.06 for Site 1 (in‑state location) and 0.82 ± 0.11 for Site 2 (out‑of‑state location) .  \nCancer screening tests should, ideally, identify cancer before symptoms have appeared and while the tumor is small in order to effectively increase the chance of treatment and reduce mortality. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths across races and genders in the U.S. with an overall 5-year survival rate of 22.9% which is notably lower than colorectal (65.1%), breast (90.6%), and prostate cancers (96.8%)1. However, if lung cancer is detected at an early stage it is highly curable through surgical resection. The 5-year survival rate for late-stage (distant) non-small lung cancer (NSLC) is less than 8% but improves to 64% if detected at a localized stage, and reaches 80% if detected at Stage-IA2. Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) has been established as the gold standard for lung cancer screening and is associated with a 20% decrease in mortality among patients screened with the technique. Accessibility, cost, stigma, and lack of adherence to LDCT guidelines are among the major challenges limiting its impact, as only about 5% ofthe LDCT-eligible population undergoes screening3, resulting in 55% of lung cancer cases being detected at an advanced stage where the survival rate is below 8%4. We therefore propose a minimally invasive, accessible, sensitive, and accurate screening test with high sensitivity (Se) to early-stage lung cancer.  \nScreening methods other than LDCT such as chest X-rays and sputum cytology have proven unsatisfactory when evaluated in large-scale clinical screening settings5. New methods based on standard protein biomarkers used for the detection of cancer do not provide sufficient sensitivity and specificity (Sp)6. Recently, there has been significant interest in the development of protocols that rely on tumor secretions in the blood, such as liquid biopsy. Tests being developed by companies including Grail, Freenome, Guardant, Delfi, and Thrive identify cancer by analyzing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) or tumor-derived circulating free DNA (cfDNA) properties such as gene mutations, methylation, and fragmentation7–11.
