SMARCA4 mutation is clinically known to be an independent poor prognostic factor. Both TCGA and the investigators institution's preliminary research indicate that the median overall survival (OS) of mutated patients is significantly shorter than that of wild-type patients (32 months vs. 157.7 months, respectively, P=0.001); it is associated with chemotherapy/immunotherapy resistance, rapid progression, and poor prognosis (OS\<12 months). Current standard first-line treatments (such as platinum-based chemotherapy ± immunotherapy) have limited efficacy in SMARCA4-mutated patients (ORR\<30%, PFS\<4 months). Additionally, NapsinA-positive expression can improve the survival of mutated patients (median OS: 32 months vs. 15 months, P=0.033), but this effect exists only in the SMARCA4-mutated group.
The ABCP regimen has a synergistic mechanism: Atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1): reverses the immunosuppressive microenvironment; Bevacizumab (anti-VEGF): inhibits angiogenesis and enhances T-cell infiltration; Platinum + Paclitaxel: directly kill tumor cells and release neoantigens. Therefore, the investigators preset that SMARCA4 mutation may affect chemotherapy/immunotherapy response through epigenetic regulation, and its value as a predictive biomarker needs to be validated. Hence, the purpose of this study is to observe and explore the efficacy and safety of first-line ABCP four-drug combination therapy in patients with advanced SMARCA4-mutated non-small cell lung cancer.
SMARCA4 is the core catalytic subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, and its loss-of-function mutations are closely associated with the development of lung cancer and poor prognosis. Studies show that SMARCA4 mutations account for approximately 5-10% of advanced NSCLC, are more common in males and smokers, and have a significantly higher incidence in large cell carcinoma (LCC) than in other histological subtypes (51.4% in LCC). Data from Asian cohorts show that SMARCA4 mutations are mutually exclusive with driver gene mutations such as EGFR and ALK, and are often accompanied by high tumor mutational burden (TMB) and low PD-L1 expression.

Currently, there are no targeted drugs directly against SMARCA4 mutations, and sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy is low. However, the high TMB signature suggests that some patients may benefit from immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy (e.g., the 5-year OS rate with camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy reached 27.8%). SMARCA4 mutation is associated with low PD-L1 expression and reduced CD8+ T-cell infiltration, but high TMB may suggest potential benefit from immunotherapy.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
