What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Objective Response Rate

    The proportion of patients with a complete response or partial response to treatment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)

    Measured: From the start of the neoadjuvant therapy until just before surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Overall survival

    The time from the start of treatment to death due to any cause.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Progression free survival

    The period from the date of beginning treatment until the date of disease progression or death from any cause

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Total resection rate

    Surgically removed tissue without residual cancer cells

    Measured: One month after surgery

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jing Sun (+86-13524284622, sj117788@rjh.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate (time frame: From the start of the neoadjuvant therapy until just before surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Dec 2024.
