About this trial

A prospective, open-label and parallel non-randomized control trial and biomarker research study is intended to compare incidence of repeated COVID-19 infection, severe pneumonitis and mortality between lung cancer patients undergoing systemic antitumor therapies who get vaccinated with 1 booster dose(majorly against XBB) and those who refuse. Meanwhile, a biomarker research is designed to monitor serum level dynamics of specific antibodies against COVID-19,analyze its correlation with incidence of breakthrough infection and further explore optimal periods for vaccination.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Incidence of critical and/or severe symptomatic COVID-19 infection among lung cancer patients treated with systemic antitumor therapies who get vaccinated 6 months after COVID-19 infection.

The incidence of the following events: COVID 19 infection confirmed by antigen test or PCR test and diagnosed of critical and/or severe pneumonitis.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks
2

All-cause mortality rate

The proportions of patients who died from any causes after enrollment.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks
3

Overall survival

The time length from enrollment to death from any causes.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks
4

Incidence of antitumor drug-related adverse events graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0

Evaluate adverse events of any cause(except cancer-related events), treatment-related adverse events, immune-mediated adverse events according to NCI-CTCAE V5.0.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks

Other outcomes

1

Exploratory biomarker analysis

5 ml blood samples will be collected in the 3rd ,4.5th and 6th months after symptomatic infection and at the same timepoints after booster dose vaccination(the interventional group) or of the successive 6 months(control group) to monitor the titre of specific sero-antibodies against COVID-19.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks
