The purpose of this study is to evaluate the real-world effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant nivolumab combined with chemotherapy in Argentinian patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
This is a non-interventional, retrospective, single-arm, multicenter study evaluating the real-world effectiveness of neoadjuvant nivolumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy in Argentinian patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary objective is to estimate the rate of pathological complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant therapy. Adult patients (≥18 years) with newly diagnosed, early-stage, resectable NSCLC (stage IIA-IIIB, AJCC 8th ed) and no EGFR or ALK driver mutations who initiated neoadjuvant nivolumab (360 mg Q3W) plus platinum-based chemotherapy between July 1, 2022, and March 1, 2025, at participating Argentinian centers will be included. Data will be extracted retrospectively from medical records for up to 12 months following surgery or neoadjuvant therapy. The primary endpoint is the pathological complete response (pCR), defined as absence of residual viable tumor in both lung and lymph nodes at surgery. Secondary endpoints include major pathological response (MPR), event-free survival (EFS) over 1 year, surgical outcomes, safety, and subsequent adjuvant therapy use. Descriptive and survival analyses will be performed.
