About this study
Official title: A Phase II Study Evaluating Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy, Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Combined With Dual Immune Checkpoint Blockade (PD-1/CTLA-4) in Patients With Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This study will enroll patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with dual immune checkpoint blockade (PD-1/CTLA-4), bevacizumab and thymosin alpha 1, followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and finally consolidation therapy with dual immune checkpoint blockade (PD-1/CTLA-4), surufatinib and thymosin alpha 1. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this treatment regimen.
- Conditions
- Lung Cancer (NSCLC)
- Being tested
- Neoadjuvant therapy, Radiotherapy, Consolidative therapy
- Medical subject headings

RadiotherapyRadiation
Definitive dose of hypofractionated radiotherapy was delivered to patients, with concurrent chemotherapy and surufatinib.
Consolidative therapyDrug
Consolidation therapy consists of iparomlimab and tuvonralimab, surufatinib and thymosin alpha 1, for a total duration of 1 year.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Neoadjuvant therapy, Radiotherapy and Consolidative therapy in people with Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by Sun Yat-sen 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 16 inclusion and 31 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 14 Jan 2026. 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 DaQuan Wang, MD. (+862087343031, wangdq@sysucc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Progression-free survival (time frame: 2-year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT07103395, which also lists 6 linked publications.
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 14 Jan 2026.
