Objective Response Rate (ORR) refers to the proportion of patients whose cancer shrinks (partial response) or disappears (complete response) after treatment.
Measured: Two years of observation after enrollment
Secondary outcomes (3)
Overall Survival (OS)
The time from enrollment to death due to any reason.
Measured: Two years of observation after enrollment
Progression free survival (PFS)
The time from the beginning of randomization to the progression of tumor development or death for any reason.
Measured: Two year of observation after enrollment
Duration of response (DOR)
DOR was defined as the time from first documented evidence of a CR or PR until progressive disease (PD) or death.
Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Experimental: tislelizumab+anlotinib in people with Thymic Carcinoma and Thymoma, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University 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 11 inclusion and 19 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 1 Dec 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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 Wen Gao (+8613951619963, Yoghurt831030@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Two years of observation after enrollment). 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 1 Dec 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
