Trial summary

EGFR-mutated NSCLC is a distinct subtype that responds well to targeted therapies. Neoadjuvant targeted therapy aims to downstage tumors and improve surgical outcomes, but the prognostic role of residual viable tumor (RVT) remains unclear. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Association Between Residual Viable Tumor and Prognosis After Neoadjuvant Targeted Therapy in EGFR-Mutated Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

EGFR-mutated NSCLC is a distinct subtype that responds well to targeted therapies. Neoadjuvant targeted therapy aims to downstage tumors and improve surgical outcomes, but the prognostic role of residual viable tumor (RVT) remains unclear. This retrospective study examines the association between RVT and survival outcomes. The findings will further validate the importance of RVT as a surrogate.

Read the detailed description

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR mutations represents a molecularly distinct subset of lung cancer that benefits from targeted therapies. Neoadjuvant targeted therapy has emerged as a promising approach for locally advanced NSCLC, aiming to achieve tumor downstaging and improve surgical outcomes. However, the prognostic significance of residual viable tumor (RVT) after neoadjuvant targeted therapy remains poorly understood. This retrospective study investigates the association between the percentage of RVT and survival outcomes in EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients following neoadjuvant targeted therapy. Specific survival outcomes were disease-free survival (DFS) and event-free survival (EFS). By highlighting RVT as a critical prognostic biomarker, the findings provide actionable insights for optimizing postoperative management and stratifying high-risk patients. This work underscores the need for pathological evaluation of RVT to refine prognosis and treatment strategies.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease-free survival (DFS)

    Disease-free survival (DFS) was defined as the time from the date of surgery to the date of recurrence or last follow-up.

    Measured: Disease-free survival (DFS) was defined as the time from the date of surgery to the date of recurrence or last follow-up. Estimated final follow-up is 3 years postoperatively.

  2. Event-free survival (EFS)

    Event-free survival (EFS) was defined as the time from the date of diagnosis to the date of first event (relapse or death) or last follow-up.

    Measured: Event-free survival (EFS) was defined as the time from the date of diagnosis to the date of first event (relapse or death) or last follow-up. Estimated final follow-up is 3 years postoperatively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Guibin Qiao (+86-13602749153, guibinqiao@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease-free survival (DFS) (time frame: Disease-free survival (DFS) was defined as the time from the date of surgery to the date of recurrence or last follow-up. Estimated final follow-up is 3 years postoperatively.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Feb 2025.
