Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a multicenter, prospective, open-label Phase II study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adjuvant sintilimab therapy guided by minimal residual disease (MRD) in patients with Stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not achieved a pathological complete response (non-pCR) after neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy. The study is being conducted at the Third People's Hospital of Chengdu and the Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients with Stage II-IIIB NSCLC who have not achieved a pathological complete response after neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy will be enrolled in this study. Eligible patients will receive adjuvant sintilimab therapy guided by MRD.

Patients should undergo a test 3 to 7 days after surgery, and another test 28 days (±3 days) after. surgery The results of these two tests will be used to determine the subsequent treatment pathway. Participants with two consecutive positive MRD test results or a single positive MRD test result will be included in the MRD + treatment cycle: they will receive adjuvant therapy with sintilimab (200 mg, intravenous infusion, every 3 weeks). Follow-up will be conducted every 3 months, during which chest CT scans and MRD tests will be performed. If the MRD test result turns negative, treatment will be discontinued and participants will be monitored. If the MRD test result remains positive, sintilimab treatment will continue.

Participants with two consecutive negative MRD test results will be included in the MRD - treatment cycle: they will only receive follow-up observation. Follow-up will be conducted every 3 months, during which chest CT scans and MRD tests will be performed. If the MRD test result turns positive, adjuvant therapy with sintilimab (200 mg, intravenous infusion, every 3 weeks) will be initiated. If the MRD test result remains negative, follow-up observation will continue.

The maximum number of treatment cycles for sintilimab therapy is 18 cycles. Safety will be evaluated through adverse events (AE) and laboratory tests.

Intervention Type DRUG

Patients who met the inclusion criteria were treated with adaptive adjuvant sintilimab therapy guided by MRD.

Patients should test twice at postoperative days 3 to 7 and again at postoperative day 28 (±3 days). The results of these two tests will be used to determine the subsequent treatment pathway. Participants with two consecutive positive MRD tests or a single positive MRD test will be enrolled in the MRD+ treatment cycle：they will receive adjuvant treatment with sintilimab (200 mg, intravenous infusion, every 3 weeks). Follow-up visits will be conducted every 3 months, during which chest CT scans and MRD testing will be performed. If MRD becomes negative, treatment will be discontinued and the participant will be monitored. If MRD remains positive, treatment with sintilimab will continue.

Participants with two consecutive negative MRD tests will be enrolled in the MRD- treatment cycle：they will undergo follow-up observation only. Follow-up visits will be conducted every 3 months

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Signed written informed consent prior to the initiation of any trial-related procedures.
2. Male or female aged ≥18 years and ≤75 years.
3. Histologically or cytologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
4. Received 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant immunotherapy (PD-1 inhibitor) combined with chemotherapy.
5. Underwent radical surgical treatment (R0), with surgical procedures including lobectomy or sleeve lobectomy. All gross tumors must be completely resected at the end of surgery, and all surgical margins of the resected tumors must be negative. Systemic lymph node dissection is required.
6. Clinical stage II, IIIA, or IIIB (limited to resectable N2) according to the AJCC 8th edition TNM classification for lung cancer. Resectable N2 refers to non-massive (defined as short-axis diameter \<3 cm), discrete, or single-station N2 involvement. If clinically suspected of N2 or N3, pathological confirmation is recommended whenever feasible.
7. Patients with pathological response assessment of 1%-90% residual viable tumor (RVT).
8. No EGFR mutations, ROS1 fusions, ALK fusions, or RET fusions. Other potentially targetable driver gene alterations will be determined in consultation with the sponsor.
9. No prior anti-tumor treatment other than PD-1 inhibitors and chemotherapy before radical surgery for lung cancer.
10. Completed radical surgery for lung cancer 4-12 weeks prior to study enrollment, with pathological confirmation of R0 resection and radiological evidence of no residual tumor foci 1 month after radical surgery.
11. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1.

9\. Cardiac enzyme profile within the normal range (subjects with isolated laboratory abnormalities deemed not clinically significant by the investigator are also eligible).

14\. For female subjects of childbearing potential, a negative urine or serum pregnancy test must be obtained within 3 days prior to the first administration of the study drug (Day 1 of Cycle 1). If the urine pregnancy test result is inconclusive, a serum pregnancy test is required. Postmenopausal women are defined as those who have been amenorrheic for at least 1 year, or those who have undergone surgical sterilization or hysterectomy.

15\. All subjects (regardless of gender) at risk of conception must use contraception with a failure rate of less than 1% per year throughout the treatment period until 120 days after the last administration of the study drug (or 180 days after the last administration of chemotherapy).
