About

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery has been recommended as the standard treatment for locally advanced and resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its efficacy remains to be improved. Drugs targeting PD-1/PD-L1 pathway have been proven to be effective for late-stage NSCLC, and anti-angiogenesis agents targeting VEGF (bevacizumab) has also been used for the first line treatment of advanced or metastatic NSCLC. Therefore, we conduct this single-arm clinical trial, which aims to investigate the safety and feasibility of neoadjuvant sintilimab combined with bevacizumab and chemotherapy followed by surgery in treating locally advanced and resectable NSCLC.

Full description

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies around the world. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery has been recommended as the standard treatment for locally advanced and resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its efficacy remains to be improved. Bevacizumab targeting VEGF is a widely used antitumor drugs in different types of malignancies, including late-stage NSCLC. Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) targeting PD-1 has also been confirmed to be effective in NSCLC patients. Therefore, we conduct this prospective single-arm clinical trial, to investigate the safety and feasibility of neoadjuvant sintilimab (ICI targeting PD-1) combined with bevacizumab and chemotherapy followed by surgery in treating locally advanced and resectable NSCLC. Twenty patients with stage II-IIIA NSCLC will be enrolled. And the primary endpoint of this study is the safety of this newly developed neoadjuvant treatment. The secondary endpoints are feasibility, radiological response and rate of major pathological response.

  2. Patients with active autoimmune disease or history of autoimmune disease;
  3. Patients who have a condition requiring systemic treatment with either prednisone or other immunosuppressive medications;
  4. Patients with a history of symptomatic interstitial lung disease;
  5. History of allergy to study drug components;
  6. Women must not be pregnant or breast-feeding;
  7. Men with female partners that are not willing to use contraception;
  8. Patients who have received prior chemotherapy, anti-angiogenesis therapy and immunotherapy for this malignancy or for any other past malignancy;
  9. Patients who have received prior treatment for non-small cell lung cancer;

Neoadjuvant treatment
Experimental group
Description:
Participants will receive 4 doses of sintilimab (200 mg, IV) and bevacizumab (15 mg/kg, IV) every 3 weeks (Q3W). Participants will also receive 4 doses of carboplatin (AUC=5, IV) and pemetrexed (500 mg/m2, IV) Q3W. Surgery will be performed within 4 to 6 weeks after completion of preoperative therapy. After the second dose of sintilimab, bevacizumab and chemotherapy, contrast-enhanced chest CT will be performed. Patients with progression disease will receive surgery without the last 2 doses of treatment.
Treatment:
Drug: sintilimab
Drug: bevacizumab
