Study summary

This study will establish a multi-center, prospective registration database. The included population are stage II and IIIA NSCLC patients undergoing R0 resection and will be scheduled for adjuvant chemotherapy. Before the first adjuvant chemotherapy, under the recommendation of a doctor, patients will voluntarily choose to use (exposed group) or not to use (control group) Shenlingcao Oral Liquid, which donated by Jiangzhong Group for 30 bottles. The research centers need to be consecutively enrolled patients according to the allocation of the number of cases according to the ratio of 3: 1 in exposure group and control group.

The exposed and control groups will be followed up to 36 months (non-allelic follow-up). Information from patients will be prospectively collected, including baseline, chemoradiation, use of Shenlingcao Oral Liquid and the other complementary drugs, and various outcome measures (the questionnaire of EORTC QLQ, death, tumor recurrence, tumor metastasis, and chemotherapy-induced side effects of the blood system, etc.). Follow-up points included: Baseline (before giving chemotherapy), 2-3 days after each chemotherapy cycle, and 6,12,18,24,30,36 months after enrollment.
