Although phase III studies have confirmed the efficacy and safety of perioperative immunotherapy plus chemotherapy for resectable NSCLC, there remains room for improvement in both short-term efficacy and long-term survival. Preclinical evidence suggests that PCSK-9 inhibition may synergize with PD-1 inhibitors to suppress tumor growth in mouse models. To date, no data are available on neoadjuvant PCSK-9 inhibitor therapy combined with immunotherapy and chemotherapy in resectable NSCLC. Therefore, this phase II study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant adebrelimab or retlirafusp alfa (SHR-1701) plus recaticimab and chemotherapy in patients with resectable NSCLC.
18-75 years old
Histologically or cytologically confirmed resectable stage II, IIIA, or selected IIIB (T2-3N2bM0 only) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) according to the International Union Against Cancer (UICC) and American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 9th edition TNM classification for lung cancer, with the tumor judged by the investigator as amenable to curative-intent R0 resection.
Ability to provide tumor tissue specimens, either archived or freshly obtained prior to the first dose of study drug.
Presence of measurable target lesions by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) according to RECIST version 1.1. Tumor imaging assessment must be performed within 28 days before the first dose.
Histologically or cytologically confirmed small cell lung cancer (SCLC), mixed SCLC and NSCLC, or other non-NSCLC pathological types.
Known EGFR mutations or ALK positivity, or other actionable driver gene mutations for which approved targeted therapies are available and accessible.
Presence of malignant pleural effusion. For subjects with drainable pleural effusion during the screening period, at least one thoracentesis is required to rule out the presence of malignant cells.
Prior systemic anti-cancer therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. If the subject has previously received anti-cancer treatment with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), enrollment is permitted only if the interval between the completion of TCM therapy and the first dose of study drug is at least 2 weeks.
