Perioperative Immunotherapy for Resectable Limited-Stage SCLC

Perioperative Tislelizumab for Resectable Small Cell Lung Cancer in Stage IIB-IIIB: A Phase 2 Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Aug 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

For limited-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC), surgical treatment is recommended for patients with T1-2N0M0 (I-IIA) by guidelines. However, whether perioperative immunotherapy extends radical surgery to stage IIB-IIIB patients with improved survival remains elusive. This is a phase II, single-arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant Tislelizumab + chemotherapy (Cisplatin/Carboplatin + Etoposide) followed by radical surgery and adjuvant Tislelizumab ± chemotherapy for patients with limited-stage SCLC.

Other illness

  • Tumor histopathology indicates non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC);
  • Any history of interstitial lung disease (ILD) (including pulmonary fibrosis or radiation pneumonitis), current ILD, or suspicion of such diseases based on imaging during screening;
  • Uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease at the time of enrollment;
  • History of active primary immunodeficiency disorders;
  • Presence of active infections;

  • Aged 18-75 years at the time of signing the informed consent form;
  • Pathologically (histologically or cytologically) confirmed diagnosis of small cell lung cancer;
  • Limited-stage disease (stage IIB-IIIB according to AJCC 8th edition) assessed by bronchoscopy, PET-CT, endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), mediastinoscopy, or percutaneous biopsy, deemed resectable with curative intent (R0 resection) by the investigator.
    • TNM staging includes T3-4 (N0 only) or N1-2 (any T) and M0, where T4 is limited to tumors \>7 cm in diameter; Patients with tumors invading the diaphragm, mediastinum, heart, great vessels, trachea, recurrent laryngeal nerve, esophagus, vertebral body, carina or having separate tumor nodules in different ipsilateral lobes are excluded. N2 is limited to single station and non-bulky.
