Clinical Study of Ivonescimab Combined With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in the Treatment of Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

November 10, 2026 updated by: Guizhou Medical University

A Prospective Exploratory Phase II Clinical Study of Ivonescimab Combined With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in the Treatment of Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

This prospective, exploratory study will evaluate the objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity of ivonescimab plus chemotherapy for 2-4 cycles after concurrent chemoradiotherapy, followed by 2 years of ivonescimab maintenance therapy, in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The findings will be compared with those of previous studies and with our institutional data on patients with stage IV NSCLC who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy for 2-4 cycles and then 2 years of PD-1 inhibitor maintenance therapy. This comparison may demonstrate that, after concurrent chemoradiotherapy for stage IV NSCLC, ivonescimab plus chemotherapy for 2-4 cycles followed by 2 years of ivonescimab maintenance therapy achieves superior efficacy compared with PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy for 2-4 cycles followed by 2 years of PD-1 inhibitor maintenance therapy, with a comparable toxicity profile.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have fully understood this study and voluntarily signed the Informed Consent Form (ICF)

  • Aged 18 to 75 years, regardless of gender

  • Previously untreated, histopathologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable PD-L1 TPS ≥ 1% Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer

  • Have measurable lesions according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1

  • Have adequate pulmonary function tests (PFTs)

  • Subjects must be able to provide a prior driver gene report based on tissue or blood testing, and the test results must show that targetable driver genes such as EGFR sensitive mutations, ALK rearrangement or fusion, and ROS1 fusion are all negative; or if a certain type of driver gene is positive but the targeted drug is not available, the subject may be enrolled. If the subject does not have a driver gene test report, tumor samples (archived or fresh, primary or metastatic) or blood samples must be collected before enrollment for driver gene testing to confirm negativity (at a local laboratory or central laboratory)

  • ECOG performance status score of 0-1

  • Adequate organ and bone marrow function

    ① Hematology: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/μL; Platelets ≥ 100,000/μL; Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL or ≥ 5.6 mmol/L.

    ② Renal: Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 × ULN or calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 60 mL/min (using the Cockcroft-Gault formula).

    ③ Hepar: Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN, or for subjects with total bilirubin levels > 1.5 × ULN, direct bilirubin within normal limits; AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN.

    ④ Adequate coagulation function: International Normalized Ratio (INR) and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; Known left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50%; Urine protein < 1+ or if urine protein is 1+, further 24-hour urine protein quantification < 1.0 g.

  • Endocrine System: Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) within normal limits. Note: If TSH is not within the normal range at baseline, the subject may still meet the inclusion criteria if T3 and free T4 are within the normal range;Coagulation function: International Normalized Ratio (INR) or Prothrombin Time (PT), Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN, except for subjects receiving anticoagulant therapy, as long as PT or aPTT is within the intended therapeutic range of the anticoagulant drug.

  • Willing and able to comply with the study plan's visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.

  • Childbearing age women must have a serum pregnancy test within 3 days before the first dose, and the result must be negative. Female subjects of childbearing age and male subjects with partners of childbearing age must agree to use highly effective methods of contraception during the study and for 180 days after the last dose of the study drug.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of resectable or metastatic disease

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy for 2-4 cycles followed by ivonescimab maintenance therapy

After concurrent chemoradiotherapy, patients received 2-4 cycles of ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy, with each 3-week period defined as one dosing cycle. On Day 1 of each treatment cycle, ivonescimab was administered first by intravenous infusion; after an interval of at least 30 minutes, pemetrexed or paclitaxel/albumin-bound paclitaxel was administered intravenously. On Day 2, carboplatin or cisplatin was administered intravenously. Patients without disease progression received ivonescimab maintenance therapy for up to 2 years or until discontinuation due to toxicity-related intolerance.
