Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Major pathological response,MPR

It is defined as pathological examination shows that the tissue sample has ≤10% viable tumor, i.e. the area of residual viable tumor cell region/surface area of tumor bed ≤10%.

Time frame
up to 9 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Objective response rate (ORR) evaluated by RECIST 1.1

The proportion of patients whose tumors have shrunk to a certain extent and maintained for a certain period of time, including cases of complete response (CR) and partial response (PR). The tumor's objective response is assessed using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1 criteria).

Time frame
up to 9 weeks
2

Pathological complete remission rate (pCR)

Defined as pathological examination showing 0% viable tumor tissue (0% RVT); calculate the proportion of subjects achieving pathological complete remission (pCR).

Time frame
up to 9 weeks
3

Disease-free survival rate at 2 years

The proportion of subjects who experienced disease recurrence or died (from any cause) from enrollment to the end of the first year, out of the total number of subjects.

Time frame
from enrollment to the end of the second year
4

Locoregional recurrence-free survival rate (LRFS) at 2 years

The proportion of subjects who did not experience local or regional lymph node recurrence or death from enrollment to the end of the second year, out of the total number of subjects.

Time frame
from enrollment to the end of the second year
