Microbiota in Neoadjuvant Chemoimmunotherapy for NSCLC
Sponsor: Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital
Summary
Locally advanced lung cancer (LALC) has poor prognosis despite multimodal therapies. Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy is now standard for resectable stage II-IIIB NSCLC, but patient responses vary. The gut microbiota, a key immune regulator, has been linked to immunotherapy efficacy, with microbial diversity predicting ICI response and fecal microbiota transplantation improving outcomes. While most studies focus on advanced disease, the microbiota's role in LALC during neoadjuvant therapy remains unclear. Exploring its dynamics may uncover novel biomarkers and strategies to optimize treatment

Interventions
Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy
neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy typically involves a PD-1 inhibitor-such as nivolumab, sintilimab, or camrelizumab-combined with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (e.g., paclitaxel plus cisplatin for squamous cell carcinoma, or pemetrexed plus cisplatin for adenocarcinoma). The standard regimen includes three treatment cycles administered every three weeks, followed by surgical resection within 4-6 weeks. Some patients may receive up to one year of adjuvant immunotherapy postoperatively.
