About this trial
This is an exploratory clinical study focusing on the neoadjuvant treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The study primarily aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Ivonescimab, a novel PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody, with those of conventional PD-1 inhibitors. Beyond evaluating its direct therapeutic benefits, this research also seeks to elucidate the potential mechanisms underlying the enhanced efficacy of Ivonescimab. Additionally, the study will conduct secondary exploratory analyses, including the identification and validation of predictive and prognostic biomarkers, as well as multi-omics profiling to investigate the molecular mechanisms of action. Collectively, these efforts aim to provide comprehensive experimental data to support the rational clinical application of Ivonescimab and the development of precision medicine strategies for NSCLC.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Pathological Complete Response (pCR
Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) is defined as the absence of residual tumor in both the primary lung tumor site and all sampled regional lymph nodes after neoadjuvant immunotherapy, confirmed through systematic pathological examination of the surgical specimen.
Secondary outcomes
Major Pathological Response (MPR)
Major Pathologic Response (MPR) is defined as the presence of ≤10% residual viable tumor cells in both the primary lung tumor site and sampled regional lymph nodes after neoadjuvant immunotherapy, confirmed through systematic pathological examination of the surgical specimen.
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR is defined as the proportion of patients achieving either a complete response (CR; disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (PR; ≥30% reduction in the sum of target lesion diameters) during or after neoadjuvant immunotherapy, as assessed by serial imaging (CT/PET-CT) using iRECIST criteria.
Event-free Survival (EFS)
Time from randomization to the occurrence of any of the following events: disease progression, recurrence, discontinuation of treatment due to toxicity, initiation of new anticancer therapy, or death from any cause.
Overall Survival (OS)
Time from randomization to death from any cause.
