About this study
Official title: A Single-arm, Prospective, Exploratory Study of Adebrelimab Combined With Apatinib Mesylate and Chemotherapy for Neoadjuvant Therapy and Biomarker Analysis in Limited-stage Small Cell Lung Cancer
This is a single-arm, prospective, exploratory phase II clinical study. The study enrolled newly diagnosed stage T1-3N0-1M0 resectable limited-stage small cell lung cancer. Adebrelimab combined with chemotherapy for 4 cycles and apatinib mesylate for 3 cycles. Surgery was performed within 4-8 weeks after the above treatment (the operation was performed 4 weeks after apatinib was discontinued). According to the results of MDT discussion, adebrelimab combined with apatinib mesylate combined with or without radiotherapy was started 4 weeks after surgery. Preoperative prophylactic radiotherapy (PCI) is recommended for patients with preoperative stage N1. Patients with postoperative stage N1 received postoperative thoracic radiotherapy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Adebrelimab, Apatinib Mesylate and Etoposide in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer Limited Stage, run by Jin Ying 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 11 inclusion and 20 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 11 Sep 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 Ying Jin, MD&PhD (86+18806529092, jinying@zjcc.org.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
EFS of 2 years (time frame: Up to 2 years). 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 11 Sep 2026.
