Brief 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.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Disease free survival
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.
The time from random assignment to cancer recurrence or death from any cause, assessed up to 36 months
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Overall survival
To evaluate at 12, 24 and 36 months after the start of adjuvant treatment
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability)
From the subject's written consent to participate in the study through 180 days after the final administration of the drug
Other Outcomes (1)
Change in levels of ctDNA during treatment
To analyze at pretreatment, after 6 months of treatment, and at disease relapse, assessed up to 36 months
Study Arms (3)
ARM 1: Observation-investigator decision
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients randomized in this arm will be in observation for 10 months. It is allowed to administer adjuvant treatment according to investigator criteria. Immunotherapy is not allowed in this arm, only chemotherapy treatment is allowed.
ARM 2: Immunotherapy. Zimberelimab treatment for 13 cycles
EXPERIMENTALAdjuvant treatment with Zimberelimab will start between the 3rd to the 10th week from surgery. 13 cycles will be administered in total. Cycles will be administered in 21-day intervals (Q3W). Zimberelimab: day 1 360 mg IV Q3W (13 cycles)
ARM 3: Sacituzumab Govitecan + Zimberelimab for 8 cycles + Zimberelimab for 5 cycles
EXPERIMENTALSacituzumab Govitecan: day 1 and 8; 10mg/Kg IV Q3W Zimberelimab: day 1 360 mg IV Q3W Treatment sequence: Adjuvant treatment will start between the 3rd to the 10th week from surgery. 13 cycles will be administered in total. Cycles will be administered in 21-day intervals (Q3W). Patients will receive 8 cycles of Sacituzumab Govitecan + Zimberelimab and 5 cycles of Zimberelimab monotherapy.
Interventions
Zimberelimab is a fully human IgG4 monoclonal antibody targeting human PD-1. PD-1 is a type I transmembrane protein that is part of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily and the CD28 family of cell surface receptors. PD-1 is an inhibitory immune checkpoint protein that is expressed on activated B cells, T cells, and myeloid cells, and it plays a key role in limiting the activity of effector T cells. Zimberelimab is formulated at 30 mg/mL in a buffer solution containing histidine/histidine-HCl buffer solution, sucrose, sodium chloride, and polysorbate 80, at pH 5.5. The investigational product is supplied as a vial contains 120 mg of active Zimberelimab at a concentration of 30mg/mL. No premedication nor profilaxis is needed before Zimberelimab administration. Zimberelimab doses are administered by IV infusion over 60 minutes, followed by a 30- to 60-minute observation period, on D1 of each 21-day cycle.
Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is an ADC composed of the following 3 components: o The humanized monoclonal antibody hRS7 IgG1κ, which binds to Trop-2, a transmembrane calcium signal transducer that is overexpressed in many epithelial cancers. o The camptothecin-derived agent SN-38, a topoisomerase I inhibitor. o A hydrolyzable linker, with the company designation as CL2A that links the humanized monoclonal antibody to SN-38. Sacituzumab govitecan is approved globally for the treatment of unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and HR+ breast cancer.
Cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy Cisplatin - CAS 15663-27-1, is a platinum coordination complex with potent anti-neoplastic activity. Induces apoptosis in cancer cells, possibly via caspase-3 activation.
Cisplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy Structure: The cis-diamino (cyclobutane-1, 1 dicarboxylate) plating. Stability: 24 hours at ambient temperature in 5% glucose, glucosamine or physiologic saline. It is recommended not to dilute with chlorinated solutions for this could affect the carboplatin. Route of administration: Intravenous infusion. Guidelines of Carboplatin administration: According to the standard of each center. Other Name: ATC code: L01XA02
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- \. Patients diagnosed of primary non-small cell lung cancer, histologically confirmed.
- \. 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
- \. 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

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.
- \. Only patients that do not achieve pathological complete response (pCR) seen in the surgical piece after neoadjuvant therapy are eligible.
- \. Preoperative (neoadjuvant) use of platinum-based chemotherapy + immunotherapy (anti PD-1) is mandatory.
- \. Preoperative, postoperative, or scheduled radiation therapy is not accepted for a later time. Patients with only N2 disease, who have to receive post-operative adjuvant radiotherapy will not be eligible.
- \. A minimum of 3 weeks must have elapsed between the surgical intervention performed for the NSCLC and the randomization. Adjuvant treatment must start between the 3rd and the 10th week from surgery.
- \. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1
- \. Patients aged ≥ 18 years.
- \. PDL1 value analysed locally (hospital must be able to provide this value before randomization)

- \. Patients with active or uncontrolled infections or with serious medical conditions or disorders that may not allow patient management as established in the protocol.
- \. Patients who have suffered untreated and / or uncontrolled cardiovascular disorders and / or who have symptomatic cardiac dysfunction
- \. Pregnant or breastfeeding women

- Patients with a condition requiring systemic treatment with either corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive medications within 14 days of randomization. Inhaled or topical steroids, and adrenal replacement steroid doses \> 10 mg daily prednisone equivalent, are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune disease.
