Yang et al. Anti-PD-1/CTLA-4 Dual Immunotherapy for LARC

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial aimed at comparing different radiotherapy fractionation regimens combined with sequential dual immunotherapy versus traditional chemoradiotherapy in neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). A total of 342 pMMR/MSS LARC patients will be enrolled and randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to short-course radiotherapy (5×5Gy) followed by sequential dual immunotherapy (paromlimab + tuvonralimab + CAPEOX), long-course radiotherapy followed by sequential dual immunotherapy, or conventional long-course chemoradiotherapy. The primary endpoint is the complete response rate (pCR + cCR). Secondary endpoints include the proportion of patients adopting the "watch-and-wait" strategy, disease-free survival, overall survival, and safety. This study innovatively explores the synergistic mechanism of different radiotherapy fractionations with dual immunotherapy, optimizes the timing of immunotherapy initiation, and constructs a clinical-imaging-pathology multimodal efficacy prediction model, aiming to advance LARC treatment from empirical to precision therapy while achieving organ and function preservation.

Comparison of the Effect of Surgical Resection Based on Lesion Extent Before and After Neoadjuvant Therapy in Patients With Stage II-IIIB Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Single-Center, Real-World, Open-Label Study.

This study intends to conduct a prospective, non-interventional study to compare the survival benefits of different surgical resection patterns for patients with non-small cell lung cancer who have achieved partial response (PR) after immunotherapy induction. The study plans to enroll patients suitable for surgery as assessed by radiomics evaluation and multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussion, and will assign them to the modified surgery group and the conventional surgery group based on patient preference. The resection scope in the modified surgery group is more limited compared to conventional surgery, aiming to maximize preservation of pulmonary function while ensuring oncological safety. This study will systematically evaluate the impact of different resection scopes on patient prognosis after neoadjuvant immunotherapy, providing clinical evidence for exploring individualized surgical strategies for non-small cell lung cancer in the era of immunotherapy.

Efficacy and Safety of Tislelizumab in Combination With Disitamab-vedotin as Neoadjuvant Therapy for HER2-positive High-risk Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma (UTUC)

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment can be used for specific UTUC patients, especially for highly staged and/or grade tumors, such as kidneys with potentially decreased renal function after RNU. Neoadjuvant therapy is a series of treatments administered preoperatively for UTUC, mainly chemotherapy, and in recent years, novel therapies of immunotherapy have emerged. Since conventional cisplatin neoadjuvant regimens also require high preoperative renal function, neoadjuvant therapy regimens such as immunotherapy provide more effective and feasible treatments for patients who are intolerant to current cisplatin chemotherapy regimens. The aim of this study was to explore the efficacy and safety of the combination of disitamab vedotin, a human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) targeted ADC, and tislelizumab, a humanised PD-1 ICIs, as neoadjuvant treatment for non-metastatic, high-risk, HER-2 expressing UTUC. In our study, patients enrolled will receive neoadjuvant tislelizumab plus disitamab-vedotin therapy followed by radical nephroureterectomy (RNU), distal ureterectomy (DU) or ureteroscopic ablation (UA) .

Neoadjuvant SBRT and Tislelizumab (Immunotherapy) Plus Anlotinib for Resectable EGFR Wild-type NSCLC

The neoadjuvant strategy of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has been recommended for resectable or potentially resectable tumors without driver-gene alterations.However, the AE of chemotherapy is more than 40%,which bring fear to the patients,especially for those who cannot tolerate or refuse chemotherapy.Several studies indicated that the strategies of chemo-free ,such as the combination of immunotherapy with antiangiogenic therapy or with SBRT, were safe and well tolerated, without increasing adverse reactions. Both of them have a promising efficacy with a manageable toxicity profile in patients with resectable NSCLC. The investigators aim to assess the activity and safety of neoadjuvant SBRT and immunotherapy plus antiangiogenic therapy in patients with resectable NSCLC.

A Prospective, Single-arm, Phase II Clinical Study of Tislelizumab Combined With Anlotinib and Platinum-based Doublet Perioperative Therapy for Resectable Stage II-IIIB Driver Gene-negative NSCLC

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if tislelizumab in combination with anlotinib and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy works to treat for resectable stage II-IIIB driver gene-negative NSCLC. It will also learn about the safety of tislelizumab in combination with anlotinib and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does tislelizumab combined with anlotinib and platinum-based doublet perioperative therapy can increase pCR rate as well as MPR rate、EFS、DFS、ORR、OS for resectable stage II-IIIB driver gene-negative NSCLC? 2. Is tislelizumab combined with anlotinib and platinum-based doublet perioperative therapy safe? Participants with histologically or cytologically confirmed NSCLC, potentially resectable, driver gene negative (II- IIIB stage), and without prior systemic treatment, who have signed the informed consent, will be screened for inclusion. After receiving 4 cycles of tislelizumab combined with anlotinib and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, the subjects will be evaluated by a multidisciplinary team (MDT) to determine whether to proceed with radical surgical resection. The surgery will be performed within 3 to 7 weeks after the last neoadjuvant treatment. Postoperatively, patients will be divided into two subgroups based on the pathological results: For patients with postoperative pathological pCR, tislelizumab monotherapy will be used for maintenance treatment; For patients with postoperative pathological non-pCR, tislelizumab combined with anlotinib will be used for maintenance treatment. Both groups will continue treatment until disease progression as defined by RECIST 1.1, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of informed consent, initiation of other anti-tumor therapy, death, or other situations specified in the protocol that require treatment cessation, whichever occurs first. The maximum treatment duration is 12 months. Survival and safety assessments will be continuously conducted thereafter.

The Application Value of 68Ga-grazytracer PET in Immunotherapy for Stage III Non-small-cell Lung Cancer

Neoadjuvant immunotherapy can significantly improve the pathological complete response (pCR) and major pathological response (MPR) rates in resectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and extend the event-free survival (EFS). However, the current means for evaluating its efficacy are limited. This study aims to utilize the convenient and non-invasive 68Ga-grazytracer PET imaging to detect the aggregation of CD8+ T cells in target lesions after neoadjuvant immunotherapy for stage III NSCLC, and to assess its value in efficacy monitoring, providing valuable information for clinical treatment decisions.
