The Neoadjuvant Treatment of Locally Advanced Thoracic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-12-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This is a randomized, open, two arm phase II clinical study. 40 patients are included in the exploratory study. The dominant population with higher biomarker positive / IO score was identified to provide the basis for the later phase III study. The subjects were randomly divided into the group of camrelizumab combined with paclitaxel and cisplatin or the group of camrelizumab combined with albumin bound paclitaxel and cisplatin according to the ratio of 1:1. The treatment cycle was every 3 weeks. The curative effect was evaluated when the treatment cycle was 2, and the resection of esophageal cancer was considered after 3 cycles. Postoperative adjuvant therapy was based on the patient's condition and surgical results; For patients with R0 resection, postoperative adjuvant treatment is not recommended. For patients with R1 / R2 resection, multi-disciplinary joint discussion and consultation are recommended to propose individualized comprehensive treatment.

• Phase: Phase 2
