Summary

This is a single-center, prospective, open-label, single-arm phase I exploratory study designed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of a novel central immune-priming radiotherapy strategy in patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The investigational approach consists of a single 8 Gy/1 fraction radiotherapy dose delivered to the central subregion of the primary tumor, with rapid dose fall-off to keep the peripheral tumor margin dose below 4 Gy, followed by one cycle of PD-(L)1 inhibitor, and then standard concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) approximately one week later. Patients without disease progression after cCRT will subsequently receive consolidation immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy.

The primary objective is to assess the safety and feasibility of this lead-in immune-priming strategy, particularly whether it can be integrated into standard cCRT and subsequent immunotherapy without unacceptable toxicity or treatment delay. The primary endpoint is the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate, with the DLT observation window defined from initiation of the priming radiotherapy to 6-8 weeks after completion of cCRT. Secondary objectives include the on-time initiation rate of cCRT, cCRT completion rate, initiation rate of consolidation immunotherapy, acute and subacute toxicity profile, preliminary efficacy signals, and dynamic changes in peripheral lymphocyte counts. Exploratory analyses will investigate peripheral immune cell subsets, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), T-cell receptor (TCR) clonality, cytokine changes, and their associations with toxicity and clinical outcomes. The study will adopt a safety run-in plus expansion design, with an initial cohort of 6 patients and expansion to 24 patients if safety is acceptable.
