The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the performances of a percutaneous Pulsed Electrical Field (PEF) ablation to treat patients with primary early-stage lung cancer (NSCLC) or lung oligometastatic Tumors who are unresectable or refusal surgery/Radiotherapy.
The main questions the study aims to answer are:
The safety and technical feasibility of the PEF ablation. The preliminary efficacy of the PEF ablation for target lesion in lung
Patients who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be given percutaneous PEF ablation to the target lesions under general anesthesia. Then follow-up to 12 months to monitor any progression by about 3 months interval.
Target Subject: Patients with early-stage primary non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) or pulmonary oligometastatic tumors who are not surgical resectable or unsuitable for surgery/radiotherapy
Trial opening soon.

Safety, technical feasibility including procedure operation success and tumor ablation technical success be evaluated.
The primary efficacy endpoint is the complete ablation rate of the ablated lesions at month 6.
Other efficacy endpoints are local tumor progression-Free Survival(PFS), Overall Survival (OS) and proportion of patients requiring initiation of other anti-tumor interventions through 12 months. Pulmonary function and quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30, EORTC QLQ-LC13) will be assessed as well.
Healthy volunteers accepted: No
Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.
Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
(For pulmonary oligometastatic tumors with primary cancer controlled already, if systemic anti-tumor therapy still needs to be continued, it is acceptable. For primary NSCLC patients, according to guideline recommendations, no concurrent systemic anti-tumor therapy is indicated).
(it is acceptable If the implanted electronic device is allowed to be turned off during the procedure)
Application of Pulsed Electric Field energy to ablate the lung tumor through percutaneous approach.
Time frame: Through 12 months
Adverse events rate and severe adverse event rate related to the device and/or procedure during the ablation procedure and thereafter 12 months follow-Up
Time frame: Once the procedure is completed.
The success rate of the procedure is defined as the proportion of ablation procedures in which the PEF treatment catheter is deployed to the target lesion and pulsed electrical field energy is delivered and then the catheter is withdrawn out from lung
Time frame: At 24-hour post the procedure
The technical success rate of the PEF ablation that is defined as the proportion of lesions where the CT imaging-assessed ablation zone (Post-ablation Target Zone, PTZ) is larger than the gross tumor region (GTR) at least 5 mm.
Time frame: At 6-month and 12-month
Complete ablation of the target lesions is defined as to achieve the following criteria on contrast-enhanced CT images
① Lesion disappears; ② Complete cavity formation; ③ Lesion fibrosis, which may be a scar; ④ Lesion shrinks, remains unchanged, or enlarges, but shows no enhancement on contrast-enhanced CT and/or no metabolic activity on PET/CT; ⑤ Atelectasis, with the lesion within the atelectasis showing no contrast enhancement on CT and/or no metabolic activity on PET/CT.
The baseline is defined as CT image of 4-6 weeks post the ablation.
Time frame: At 12 months
The proportion of subjects without target lesion progression in lung at 6-month and 12-month post the PEF procedure in evaluative subjects.
Time frame: At 12 months
The proportion of surviving subjects at 12 months after completion of PEF ablation therapy in those evaluative subjects.
Time frame: At 12-month
Time frame: Through 12 months
The pulmonary function measures includes Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) in liter, Forced Expiratory Volume in the first second (FEV1) in liter, Ratio of FEV1/FVC in percentage, Total Lung Capacity (TLC) in liter, Residual Volume (RV) in liter, Ratio of RV/TLC in percentage and Diffusing Capacity of the Lungs for Carbon Monoxide(DLCO) in ml/mmHg/min and the percentages of all of the measures compared with the predicted value accordingly at 6-month and 12-month post procedure.
Time frame: through 12 months
EORTC QLQ-C30(European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life, The Core Questionnaire) and EORTC QLQ-LC13 (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life, Lung Cancer Questionnaire) be used to assess the quality of life.
EORTC QLQ-C30(version 3.0) include global health status, functional scale and symptom scales/items. The range of the score is from zero to 100 points. For functional and global health status, the higher score mean a better conditions. For symptom domain, the higher score reversely indicates worse status.
EORTC QLQ-LC13 is designed to assess the quality of life in patient with lung cancer. The range of score is from zero to 100 points. The higher score mean the worse symptoms.
