Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include patients with histologically confirmed NSCLC who are clinically staged IA-IIIC and assessed as resectable or potentially resectable prior to treatment.

Probably not a fit

Patients with confirmed M1 disease or significant missing clinical data may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This multicenter retrospective real-world study aims to assess the safety, efficacy, and survival outcomes of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It encompasses various treatment pathways, including surgery and radiotherapy, to provide comprehensive real-world evidence that addresses existing gaps in clinical trials. By establishing a cohort that spans from the neoadjuvant therapy period to follow-up, the study seeks to inform treatment decisions for both operable and inoperable cases of lung cancer.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance treatment strategies and improve survival rates for patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies have shown success with neoadjuvant immunotherapy in NSCLC, but this study aims to provide novel real-world data to enhance understanding of its perioperative safety and efficacy.
