Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 to 75 with pathologically confirmed stage IB, grade 3 invasive lung adenocarcinoma who have undergone complete surgical resection.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active EGFR mutations or ALK rearrangements, or those who have received prior anti-tumor treatments, may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This phase 2 clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the PD-L1 inhibitor Benmelstobart (TQB2450) as an adjuvant therapy for patients with stage IB, grade 3 invasive lung adenocarcinoma who have undergone radical resection. Participants will receive Benmelstobart intravenously every three weeks for up to 16 cycles, starting 4 to 12 weeks post-surgery. The primary goal is to assess the 2-year disease-free survival rate, while secondary goals include longer-term survival rates and safety assessments. The study will enroll 62 patients at Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could improve disease-free survival rates for patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma after surgery.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies using PD-L1 inhibitors in similar contexts have shown promising results, indicating potential for success in this approach.
