Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy Plus Chemotherapy Followed by Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy and Consolidative Immunotherapy for Locally Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Summary

Consolidative immunotherapy following concurrent chemoradiotherapy, based on the PACIFIC trial, has become the standard treatment for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LANSCLC), leading to a 5-year survival rate of over 40%. The optimal timing of radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy still requires further exploration. This phase III, randomized controlled clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant immuno-chemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy and consolidative immunotherapy, compared with concurrent chemoradiotherapy and consolidative immunotherapy in LANSCLC patients.
