About this trial
This study is a single-arm, multi-center, phase III trial conducted under the Eastern Cooperative Thoracic Oncoloy Project (ECTOP) with the identification number ECTOP-1021. The primary objective of the study is to assess the overall survival of patients with multifocal ground-glass opacities by employing a active surveillance approach rather than opting for surgical resection.

All lesions have remained stable without regression or enlargement for at least 3 months.
The dominant lesion (the lesion with the largest maximum tumor diameter) has a maximum tumor diameter >=0.6cm and <=2cm.
CTR <=0.25 in all lesions.
Disqualifiers
History of any prior malignancies within the past 5 years.
History of lung surgery.
History of interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis or other severe pulmonary diseases.
Presence of severe or uncontrolled diseases that may possibly reduce the 10-year life expectancy.

Treatments tested in this trial
Watchful waiting
Procedure/SurgeryConduct thoracic computed tomography scans every 12 months. The decision regarding surgery is based on the surgeon's evaluation of radiologic follow-up. The reference resection criteria encompass: a) Any lesion that progresses to a tumor diameter larger than 2cm or has CTR greater than 0.25. b) Clinical Tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) stage upstaging.
