Stage IIB-III NSCLC

The goal of this multicenter prospective observational study is to learn about the surgical difficulty and outcomes of robotic-assisted sleeve lobectomy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the rate of unsuccessful robotic-assisted sleeve lobectomy after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy? What factors are associated with unsuccessful surgery? How do surgeons subjectively assess intraoperative difficulty across multiple dimensions during these procedures? In this study, unsuccessful surgery is defined as any of the following: conversion to thoracotomy, incomplete (non-R0) resection, or major postoperative complications. Participants who are scheduled to undergo curative-intent robotic-assisted sleeve lobectomy as part of their routine clinical care after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy will be enrolled from multiple centers. Clinical, intraoperative, pathological, and short-term postoperative data will be collected prospectively. In addition, surgeons will be asked to provide a multidimensional subjective assessment of intraoperative difficulty, including factors such as pleural adhesions, hilar fibrosis, nodal matting, fissure completeness, and vascular inflammation or edema, to better characterize the technical challenges of surgery and their association with perioperative outcomes.

The goal of this observational study is to learn whether tumor and nodal downstaging after neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy is associated with better surgical outcomes in patients with clinical stage IIB-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing robotic-assisted thoracic surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: Is downstaging after neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy associated with better surgical outcomes in patients with stage IIB-III NSCLC undergoing robotic-assisted surgery? Participants with resectable or potentially resectable stage IIB-III NSCLC who receive neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy as part of their routine clinical care and then undergo curative-intent robotic-assisted surgery will be prospectively enrolled from international centers. Clinical, operative, pathological, and postoperative outcome data will be collected, including R0 resection, the extent of resection, conversion to open surgery, postoperative complications, length of stay, readmission, and mortality.

This is a two-cohort, multicenter, Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3-4 cycles of toripalimab (JS001) plus chemotherapy followed by toripalimab maintenance treatment up to one year in participants with completely resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) stratified by prior neoadjuvant treatment status, as measured by disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Researchers will compare outcomes between two cohorts: 1. Cohort 1: Stage IB-IIIB participants following completely resection without neoadjuvant therapy; 2. Cohort 2: Stage IIB-III participants with non-MPR or MPR but lymph node positivity after neoadjuvant therapy.
