About this study

Official title: An International Multicenter Retrospective Analysis of RATS, VATS and Open Lung Resections After Neoadjuvant Chemo-immunotherapy

The study is a retrospective observational study. The study is designed to be multicentric and international and it will analyze medical records from selected patients diagnosed with locally advanced and resectable NSCLC who underwent lung resection by robotic, VATS and open approach after receiving neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy.

There are no risks for the patients, as this is a retrospective data collection.

Read the detailed description

The use of neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is increasing. However, there is limited research comparing the feasibility and oncologic efficacy of robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS), video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), and open lung resection, in patients already treated with neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. This study aims to evaluate the benefits of RATS compared to VATS and open surgery in terms of short-term outcomes for patients with NSCLC undergoing neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy.

All adult patients diagnosed with locally advanced and resectable NSCLC who underwent lung resection from 01-01-2016 to 31-03-2024 by robotic, VATS and open approach after receiving neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy will be included.

Patients are divided into three groups: robotic lung resection; video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) lung resection; open lung resection.

Robotic ApproachAdult patients diagnosed with locally advanced and resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who underwent robotic lung resection

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The perioperative complication of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approach

    The investigators will measure the perioperative complications of VATS approach in patients who received neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. Complications will be categorized according to the Clavien-Dindo scale.

    Measured: 30-90 days after surgery

  2. The perioperative complications of robotic approach

    The investigators will measure the perioperative complications of robotic lung resection in patients who received neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. Complications will be categorized according to the Clavien-Dindo scale.

    Measured: from the surgery at 30-90 days after

  3. The perioperative complications of the open approach

    The investigators will measure the perioperative complications of open approach in patients who received neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. Complications will be categorized according to the Clavien-Dindo scale.

    Measured: 30-90 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Duration of surgery

    Duration of the surgery based on the approach measured in minutes

    Measured: from 30 days after surgery

  2. Quality of lymphadenectomy

    Number of lymphonodes station resected

    Measured: from 30 days after surgery

  3. Conversion rate

    Number of surgery procedures converted

    Measured: from 30 days after surgery

  4. Radicality of the resection

    Radicality of the resection in the approaches

    Measured: from 30 days after surgery

  5. Oncological treatment

    Response of the patient to oncological treatment

    Measured: from 30 days after surgery

  6. Survival analysis

    Presence or absence of local and distant relapse

    Measured: from 3 to 5 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Scientific Institute San Raffaele at 6 sites in 2 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 29 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, Italy. 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.

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 Pierluigi Novellis, Medical Doctor (0226437202 ext. +39, novellis.pierluigi@hsr.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The perioperative complication of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) approach (time frame: 30-90 days after surgery). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Nov 2024.
