First-Line Treatment for Advanced Non-squamous Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer With Negative Driver Gene: a Single-center, Single-Arm Trial

• Status: Recruiting
• Trial end date: 2025-07-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab plus bevacizumab and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy as the first-line therapy for advanced nonsquamous non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC) with negative driver gene.

This study is an exploratory single-arm study. The specific treatment regimen is as follows:

Non-squamous NSCLC: Sintilimab (200 mg) plus Bevacizumab (7.5mg/kg) is started on the first day of each treatment cycle and administered every three weeks. Nedaplatin (80-100 mg/m2) (d2) +pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 (d2) Q3W is administered in this regimen for 4 cycles followed by sintilimab plus bevacizumab until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.

Patients are assessed for measurable disease at baseline, 6 weeks, 12 weeks after starting treatment, and every 9 weeks thereafter according to RECIST 1.1 criteria during the treatment period until disease progression or intolerable toxicity withdrawal. Following discontinuation of treatment, subjects are followed for survival status every 3 months until death. Subject safety was assessed during treatment according to NCI CTCAE Version 4.0 criteria. Subjects who experience an AE should be followed until the AE returns to baseline. The primary endpoints is Progression-free survival (PFS) . Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS) and safety (NCI CTCAE v 4.0). Statistical methods: The PFS curve was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method for the largest population to be analyzed. The confidence interval method was used as the criterion for the main analysis. OS was calculated in the same way as the secondary endpoint. Descriptive statistics will be used to analyze ORR, DCR, etc. It is expected that sintilimab plus bevacizumab and platinum-based doublet chemotherapy as first-line treatment will prolong median PFS and OS in patients with driver gene-negative advanced Non-squamous NSCLC.

People suffering from uncontrollable neuropsychiatric diseases or mental disorders had poor compliance and were unable to cooperate and describe treatment responses; The conditions of patients with primary brain tumor or central nerve metastatic tumor were uncontrollable and the symptoms of cranial hypertension or neuropsychiatric were obvious.

7. Patients with hereditary bleeding tendency or coagulation dysfunction, or history of thrombosis or bleeding, and abnormal detection results of coagulation function related indicators.
