Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1.Histologically confirmed ESCC;
  • 2.Clinical stage T1-2N2-3M0 or T3N1-3M0 or T4N0-3M0(AJCC 8 TNM classification);
  • 3.Have a performance status of 0 or 1 on the ECOG Performance Scale;

  • 3.The patient had active infection, fever of unknown cause ≥38.5℃ within 7 days before the medication, or white blood cell count at baseline >15×109/L;

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Toripalimb

Arm Description

Single arm, non randomized, open label study.The patients will receive Toripalimb concurrently caboplatin and paclitaxel treatment.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Complete pathologic response rate
Definition of complete pathologic response is "no cancer cell, including lympho nodes" which corresponds with tumor regression score 0. Definition of pathologic response is as follows. Tumor regression score Grade 0 and 1 will be defined as "responder" and 2 and 3 will be considered as "non-responders"

Secondary Outcome Measures

Disease control rate
According to RECISIST1.1 standard,the disease control rate is the percentage of cases in which relief and stable lesions are obtained after treatment as a percentage of the total evaluable number.
Objective response rate
Objective response rate as assessed by RECISIST1.1 criteria, the percentage of subjects with CR or PR in the total number of subjects in the analysis data set during the period from the beginning of the treatment regimen to the disease progression date.
Incidence of adverse events
Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by treatment-related adverse events assessed by CTCAE v4.0

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a single-institution, single arm trial of Toripalimab with neoadjuvant carboplatin and paclitaxel for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).The primary study hypothesis is that the patients who received Toripalimab combined with carboplatin and paclitaxel will increase complete pathologic response rate.
Detailed Description
Enrolled patinets will receive two cycles of Toripalimab(240 mg administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes per 3 weeks), paclitaxel(135 mg/m2) and carboplatin(AUC 5) administered as an intravenous infusion per 3 weeks. Giving the drugs on the first day of each cycle.
