Plain-language summary

Open-label, phase III, randomized, stratified (PDL1- vs PDL1+), 3 arms, multicenter clinical trial. 129 resected patients (43 per arm) with stage from IB to IIIA and IIIB (N2) non-small cell lung cancer that do not achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant treatment. This clinical trial has 3 arms of treatment. ARM 1: Observation 10 months, ARM 2: treatment with immunotherapy (Zimberelimab) for 13 cycles and ARM 3: treatment with Sacituzumab Govitecan and Zimberelimab for 8 cycles and Zimberelimab monotherapy for 5 cycles. The primary objective is to evaluate the disease-free survival (DFS): defined as the length of time from randomization to the earliest event defined as disease recurrence, any new lung cancer (even in the opposite lung), or death from any cause at any known point in time. Patient accrual is expected to be completed within 2 years, treatment is planned to extend during 1 years and the patients will be followed up for 2 years. The study will end once survival follow-up has concluded.

Inclusion Criteria: * 1\. Patients diagnosed of primary non-small cell lung cancer, histologically confirmed. * 2\. Patients should be classified postoperatively in stage IB, IIA, IIB, IIIA or IIIB (N2) according to pathological criteria (pTNM) and according to 8th version of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Staging Manual in Thoracic Oncology * 3\. Complete surgical resection (R0) of the primary NSCLC is also essential. Surgeons are strongly advised to dissect or obtain samples of all accessible lymph node levels, as established in the European Society of Thoracic Surgeons guide. Consequently, at the end of the surgical intervention it is recommended to have obtained samples of a minimum of 3 specific mediastinal ganglionic lobe stations (N2), one of which should include station 7, and at least one N1 station * 4\. The surgical intervention may consist of a lobectomy, sleeve resection, bilobectomy or pneumonectomy, as determined by the responsible surgeon based on intraoperative findings. Patients who have had only segmentectomies or wedge resections are not considered eligible for participation in this study except if R0 resection can be confirmed. * 5\. Only patients that do not achieve pathological complete response (pCR) seen in the surgical piece after neoadjuvant therapy are eligible. * 6\. Preoperative (neoadjuvant) use of platinum-based chemotherapy + immunotherapy (anti PD-1) is mandatory. * 7\. Preoperative, postoperative, or scheduled ra…

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
