tislelizumab (200mg,iv, q3w) + Anlotinib (10mg, orally, D1-14, q3w)+nab-paclitaxel(260mg/m2,q3w)3-4cycle
SurgeryProcedure or surgery
Surgery should be performed 4 to 6 weeks after the last neoadjuvant therapy (at least 4 weeks after the end of anlotinib treatment).
Adjuvant therapyDrug
Tislelizumab: 200mg, iv, Q3W, 1year at most(including preoperative treatment medication, a total of 17 cycles).

Patients who meet the surgical conditions will undergo surgery within 4 to 6 weeks after neoadjuvant therapy.
After the operation, the patient entered the stage of single-agent adjuvant therapy with tislelizumab. The adjuvant therapy with tislelizumab lasted for one year (including preoperative treatment medication, a total of 17 cycles) Receives: Drug: neoadjuvant therapy; Procedure: Surgery; Drug: Adjuvant therapy |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

pCR rate is defined as the percentage of participants having an absence of residual invasive cancer in resected lung specimens and lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant therapy.
Measured: Up to approximately 8 weeks following completion of neoadjuvant treatment
Secondary outcomes (5)
Major Pathological Response (mPR) Rate
mPR rate is defined as the percentage of participants having ≤10% viable tumor cells in the resected primary tumor and all resected lymph nodes following completion of neoadjuvant therapy.
Measured: Up to approximately 8 weeks following completion of neoadjuvant treatment
R0 resection rate
R0 Resection Rate: The pathological results will showed that the incision margin was negative and no residual cancer cells were found under the microscope.
Measured: usually 1 week after surgery
Event-Free Survival(EFS)
The time from the start of randomization (or the start of treatment in a one-arm trial) to the first occurrence of any of the following events: disease progression without surgical treatment, local or distant recurrence, death from any cause, etc.
Measured: Up to 2years
overall survival(OS)
Time from randomization to death (from any cause)
Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing neoadjuvant therapy, Surgery and Adjuvant therapy in people with NSCLC and Tislelizumab, run by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University 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 10 inclusion and 17 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 13 Oct 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 Yanguo Liu (18560081902, liuyanguo@sdu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
pathological complete response (pCR) (time frame: Up to approximately 8 weeks following completion of neoadjuvant treatment). 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 13 Oct 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
