Evaluating the response to neoadjuvant treatment in stage IIIA lung cancer patients
Official title: Retrospective Observational Study of Resectable Stage IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients: Pathological Response After Neoadjuvant Treatment and Patient Outcomes
Run by Fundación GECP · NCT05167487 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is trying to see how well neoadjuvant treatment works for people with stage IIIA lung cancer by looking at their tissue samples to understand if it helps them live longer and stay cancer-free.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with histologically confirmed resectable stage IIIA NSCLC who have received neoadjuvant platinum-based treatment.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who received chemoradiotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment or were not resected after treatment will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the pathological response in patients with resectable stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after receiving neoadjuvant treatment. It will utilize data collected from the Tumor Thoracic Registry and clinical trial case report forms without interfering in standard clinical practices. The study will involve re-evaluating specimens from approximately 150 patients across multiple Spanish sites to determine the correlation between pathological response and overall survival as well as disease-free survival.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide insights into the effectiveness of neoadjuvant treatments, potentially improving treatment strategies for patients with stage IIIA NSCLC.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in evaluating pathological responses in lung cancer, making this approach both relevant and potentially impactful.
