Proton Moderately Hypofractionated Radiotherapy in NSCLC Patients Unable to Tolerate Standard Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy

1. Is the biology right?

• Somatic driver evidence: not published · No target found for the interventions.

  Rule: Open Targets has somatic-mutation evidence for the target in this cancer. Source: Open Targets Platform, 2026-11-11
• Human genetic evidence: not published · No target found for the interventions.

  Rule: Any germline or somatic human genetic evidence for the target in this cancer. Source: Open Targets Platform, 2026-11-11
• Pediatric target: not published · No target found for the interventions.

  Rule: Target is on FDA's Pediatric Molecular Target List (relevant targets); membership alone neither requires nor waives a study. Source: FDA Pediatric Molecular Target List (Listed as February 2026 on the FDA Pediatric Oncology page; the file served is 9.7.22_the_relevant_molecular_target_list.xlsx, whose Summary of Changes sheet is headed 'SEPTEMBER 2022 UPDATE' (footnote date 2022-09-01)), 2026-11-11
• Haematologic cancer: no · Solid tumour

  Rule: From the indication, or the registry conditions when no indication matches. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691, 2026-11-11

  Published context: Likelihood of approval from phase 1: 7.5% haematologic vs 4.6% solid (BIO / Informa / QLS 2021, 2011–2020). Population-level, not a prediction.

2. Can the result be trusted?

• Randomised: no · Single group

  Rule: Registry allocation field. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691, 2026-11-11
• Small denominator: no · 44 planned; each patient moves a rate by 100 ÷ 44 = 2.3 points

  Rule: Enrolment under 30; the arithmetic is shown, not a benchmark. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691, 2026-11-11
• Primary endpoint is overall survival: yes · 1-Year Overall Survival (OS) Rate

  Rule: A registered primary outcome measure names overall survival. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691, 2026-11-11
• Results overdue: no · Primary completion expected 2030-06-30; not yet due

  Rule: Primary completion (actual) more than 12 months ago and no results posted to the registry. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691, 2026-11-11

• Not loaded on this app yet: Treated and evaluable counts, assessor, confirmed response, follow-up and data cutoff. Source: Readout extraction (ticket 32).

3. What must it beat?

• Not loaded on this app yet: Control-arm result and approved therapies for the same segment, with label links. Source: Drugs@FDA, FDA labels and readouts (tickets 30, 32).

4. Too crowded, or too late?

• Not loaded on this app yet: Programs on the target by phase and months behind the leader. Source: Programs and Drugs@FDA (ticket 33).

5. Can it be approved, and stay approved?

• Single-country: not published · The record lists no sites.

  Rule: All listed sites are in one country; the share of US sites is shown. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691, 2026-11-11

• Caveat: Site counts are not patients per country, and trials registered only outside ClinicalTrials.gov are not covered. Where the sites are is a fact about the record, not a judgement of its quality.

• Not loaded on this app yet: Precedent approvals for target, modality and endpoint; accelerated-approval status. Source: Drugs@FDA and FDA accelerated-approval tables (ticket 30).
• Not loaded on this app yet: Orphan designation, EU paediatric plan, pediatric incentives. Source: No investigational drug was named, so EMA and FDA records were not looked up.

6. Can the sponsor finish?

• Sponsor: Ruijin Hospital (academic or other) · ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07919691

• Not loaded on this app yet: Filed cash, quarterly spend and the runway arithmetic. Source: SEC XBRL company facts (ticket 37).
