Brief summary
This is a single-arm, open, II phase study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Nivolumab + carboplatin + paclitaxel in 25 newly diagnosed patients with primary tracheal squamous cell carcinoma.
Detailed description
Primary tracheal tumors are rare, comprising 0.01-0.4% of all cancer cases. Most airway tumors present with non-specific symptoms, such as shortness of breath and a sore throat, which may not be attributable to the tumors themselves, leading to diagnostic delay. With limited treatment options, surgical resection is considered the cornerstone therapy. Neoadjuvant therapy is recommended as standard treatment for the early stages (stage IB/II) and locally advanced stages (stage IIIA) of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Whether neoadjuvant therapy affects subsequent pathological or surgical outcomes of primary tracheal tumors remains unclear. This study aimed to characterize the outcomes of neoadjuvant therapy for the treatment of primary tracheal squamous cell carcinoma.

Inclusion criteria
1. Bronchoscopic biopsy confirmed as tracheal squamous cell carcinoma by pathological examination 2. PET-CT confirmed no metastasis; 3. ECOG physical status score 0-1; 4. Bronchoscopy, and chest CT is evaluated as early or locally advanced tracheal malignant tumor, and radical surgery is expected to be feasible or after neoadjuvant therapy. 5. Age ≥ 18 years; 6. Have one measurable lesion at least; 7. Good function of other major organs (liver, kidney, blood system, etc.):-absolute neutrophil count ((ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109), platelet (≥ 100 × 109), hemoglobin (≥ 90g/L). Note: patients shall not receive blood transfusion or growth factor support within 14 days before blood collection during the screening period;-International standardized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) ≤ 1.5 × normal upper limit (ULN);-activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN;- serum total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN (Gilbert syndrome patients with total bilirubin must be \< 3×ULN). Fertile female patients with aspartate and alanine aminotransferase (AST and ALT) ≤ 2.5 × ULN, or liver metastasis with AST and ALT ≤ 5 × ULN 8. Fertile female patients must voluntarily take effective contraceptive measures more than 120 days after chemotherapy or the last administration of Nivolumab, whichever is later, and the urine or serum pregnancy test results less than 7 days before entering the group were negative. Unsterilized male patients must voluntarily take effective contraceptive measures ≥ 120 days after chemotherapy or the last administration of Nivolumab, whichever is the latter. 9. Sign informed consent;
Exclusion criteria

Other researchers did not consider it appropriate to enroll in the group.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Major pathologic response (MPR) | up to 4 months | MPR is defined as the proportion of participants who have achieved major pathologic response (on routine hematoxylin and eosin staining, tumors with no more than 10% viable tumor cells) in all participants who have completed the neoadjuvant therapy before surgery |
| Safety: frequency of severe adverse events | up to 5 months | The frequency of severe adverse events from the participants enrolling to 30 days after the last drug administration or 30 days after surgery or new anti-cancer therapy, which comes first. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Disease control rate (DCR) | up to 60 months | The proportion of patients whose best overall remission (BOR) is CR, PR or disease stable (SD) according to RECISTv1.1 evaluation |
| Progression-free survival (PFS) | up to 24 months | PFS is defined as the time from the enrollment of the subject to the first determination of disease progression or death of any cause according to RECISTv1.1, whichever occurs first. |
| R0 rate | up to 4 months | There were no visible tumors in the surgical margin, and the tumor cells in the surgical margin within 1mm were negative under the microscope |
| Duration of remission (DOR) | up to 60 months | According to the time from the first recording of objective remission to relapse or death from any cause determined by RECISTv1.1, whichever occurs first. |
| Overall survival (OS) | up to 60 months | It is defined as the time from enrollment to death of participant due to any cause. In the case of a patient who still survives at the time of analysis, the date of last contact will be taken as the censoring date. In the event of a patient with the survival status unknown, the date when the patient is last known to be alive will be used for interpolation (censoring). |
