About this trial

To evaluate efficacy and safety of low dose radiotherapy combined with sintilimab and platinum based chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy for stage II-III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Sign a written Informed Consent Form (ICF) and be able to comply with the visit and related procedures specified in the protocol.

Age ≥ 18 years old.

Primary non-small cell lung cancer (including adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma) diagnosed by cytology or histology.

According to the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer and the Joint Committee on Cancer Classification 8th edition (AJCC8) TNM staging classification of lung cancer, the clinical staging is IIB (primary tumor>4cm), IIIA, or IIIB (resectable N2 only) stage. Resectable N2 refers to non bulk (defined as a short diameter less than 3cm), discrete, or single site N2 involvement. If clinically suspected as N2 or N3, pathological confirmation is required.

Disqualifiers

1. Histological and pathological examinations show the presence of coexisting small cell carcinoma, large cell neuroendocrine tumor, and sarcomatoid tumor components.

Active infection (requiring treatment with anti infective drugs or having used systemic anti infective drugs within the week prior to randomization);

Congestive heart failure [New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification ≥ II]; Serious arrhythmias, liver, kidney or metabolic diseases that require medication treatment;

Untreated coronary atherosclerotic heart disease; Type I or II respiratory failure; History of gastrointestinal perforation and/or fistula, intestinal obstruction, extensive intestinal resection, or long-term chronic diarrhea within the past 6 months.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Pathologic Complete Response(pCR) rate

Pathological complete response (pCR) rate is defined as the proportion of participants whose tumor in the stomach and lymph node completely disappeared, as determined by a pathologist.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks after surgery

Secondary outcomes

1

Major pathological response (MPR) rate

Major pathological response (MPR) rate is defined as the proportion of participants whose percentage of residual tumor in the stomach and lymph node decreased to \< 10%, as determined by a pathologist.

Time frame
up to 8 weeks after surgery
2

Objective Response Rate (ORR)

An objective response is defined as either a confirmed CR or a PR, as determined by the investigator using RECIST v1.1Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) from the National Cancer Institute (NCI).

Time frame
through study completion, an average of 1 year
3

Event Free Survival(EFS)

proportion of participants who have no events,including death, disease progression, change of chemotherapy regimen, switching to chemotherapy, addition of other treatments, occurrence of lethal or intolerable side effects, etc

Time frame
up to 3 years
