About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Sintilimab Plus Bevacizumab and Tafolecimab in Patients With Advanced NSCLC Who Have Progressed After Anti- PD- 1/L1 Therapy

This study evaluated the sintilimab combination of bevacizumab and tafolecimab in NSCLC patients who have previously been treated with anti- PD- 1/ligand (L)1 and acquired resistance. The patients were assigned to receive sintilimab(200mg Q3W) in combination with bevacizumab(7.5mg/kg Q3W) and tafolecimab(600 mg Q6W). The primary endpoints of the study were progression- free survival (PFS) assessed by RECISTv1.1 , while secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), and overall survival (OS) and safety.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Sintilimab combined with Bevacizumab and tafolecimab in people with NSCLC (Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer) and Resistance to Immunotherapy, run by Anhui Provincial Cancer Hospital.

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 26 inclusion and 35 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Zhihong Zhang (0551-65327766, zhangzhihope2022@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS (time frame: 24months). 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 10 Jun 2025.
