The Efficacy of Immunodetection Point Inhibitors for Advanced Esophageal Cancer

Esophageal Cancer

Esophageal cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the digestive system. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is the main type of esophageal cancer, accounting for more than 90% of esophageal cancer in China. The 5-year survival rate is about 15%~25%. Many patients with esophageal cancer are initially diagnosed as advanced, and many patients with early initial diagnosis will still relapse and metastasis after radical treatment. Currently, chemotherapy plays a central role in palliative care, but its objective remission rate is only 20-40%, and the median survival is about 8-10 months. However, most of the current phase III studies on targeted drugs for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma have failed, and the treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has entered the bottleneck stage. Therefore, it is urgent to explore a treatment method that can significantly improve the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer. In recent years, with the development of biological immunotherapy, immunocheckpoint inhibitors, including pd-1 inhibitors, pd-l1 inhibitors and ctla-4 inhibitors, have achieved significant curative effect and made breakthroughs in the treatment of multiple solid tumors including melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer and kidney cancer. These immunocheckpoint inhibitors have also been tried for esophageal cancer, with initial success in immunotherapy for esophageal cancer. In this observational study, all patients with esophageal cancer who used immunocheckpoint inhibitors in clinical practice were included, without limitation on the number of treatment lines or combinations of different chemotherapy. Through follow-up observation, the purpose of this study was to analyze the efficacy of immunocheckpoint inhibitors for esophageal cancer in the real world, and to explore the differences in the efficacy of immunocheckpoint inhibitors in different stages of treatment, as well as the efficacy of different chemotherapy combinations, so as to provide clinical evidence for the use of immunotherapy for advanced esophageal cancer.

Genomic Study of Relapse Esophageal Cancer After Radiotherapy

Gene Mutation-Related CancerEsophageal Cancer1 more

Radiotherapy plays an important role in multidisciplinary treatment of esophageal cancer. However, about half patients received radiotherapy occurred relapse. Once relapse occurred, there is no better treatment strategy. Genomic study of relapsed esophageal cancer is seldom. So the investigators attempt to collect relapsed tissue to conduct with whole exome sequencing in order to investigate the genome landscape of recurrence esophageal cancer.

Endoscopic Resection of Gastrointestinal Neoplasms

Endoscopic Mucosal ResectionEndoscopic Submucosal Dissection4 more

The study aims to retrospectively investigate the endoscopic resection procedures of cancerous and precancerous lesions of the upper and lower digestive tract in order to evaluate the efficacy and safety outcomes and to compare different resection techniques. In particular, the resection techniques investigated will be mucosectomy, en bloc and piecemeal, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and its variants, full-thickness resection. The anatomical districts involved will be the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, colon and rectum.

Endoscopic Resection Multicenter Registry

Gastrointestinal NeoplasmsGastrointestinal Disease11 more

This is a retrospective and prospective multicenter registry to collect long-term data (1 year) on patients who have or will undergo Endoscopic resection such as EMR, ESD, EFTR, STER, etc. within the gastrointestinal tract for endoscopic treatment of early gastrointestinal neoplasms involving the resection of the superficial layers, mucosa and submucosa, of the tract wall. Subjects will be consented for medical chart review. The purpose of this retrospective and prospective registry is to assess long term data on efficacy, safety and clinical outcome of Endoscopic Resection within the gastrointestinal tract (1 year). The registry will evaluate efficacy, technical feasibility, clinical outcome, safety profile and overall clinical management through medical chart review. The procedures the investigators are evaluating are all clinically indicated and will not be prescribed to someone to participate in this registry study.

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection in Upper Gastrointestinal Canal With HybridKnife

EndoscopyDigestive System2 more

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a relatively new modality for the treatment of superficial gastrointestinal neoplasia and especially in the diagnosis and treatment of submucosal tumors. ESD has become a minimal invasive alternative to surgery but requires a high degree of endoscopic skills to be performed safely, it is time consuming, and less safe than endoscopic mucosa resection. New endoscopic instruments have been developed to increase the efficacy and safety of ESD, and a combined endoscopic instrument (HybridKnife) has been developed and evaluated with promising results in animal studies. This HybridKnife allows high-pressure water-jet (submucosal) dissection, as well as cutting and coagulation and makes ESD possible without changing instrument. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of using HybridKnife for ESD in humans.

Pre-Surgery If Needed for Oesophageal Cancer

Esophageal Cancer

Prospective, multi-centre, diagnostic cohort study investigating the accuracy of positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET-CT), endoscopic bite-on-bite biopsies and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) with fine-needle aspiration (FNA) for detecting residual disease after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in patients with potentially curable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).

Perioperative Nutritional Support in Esophageal Cancer Patients

Esophageal CancerNutritional Deficiency

Upper GI malignancies often lead to involuntary weight loss and nutritional deficits. Nutritional support, both pre- and postoperatively, may improve post-operative course and reduce length of hospital stay. This prospective randomized trial aims to investigate the above mentioned hypothesis and clarify any variants that may differ between the investigation and control group at a statistically significant level.

Monitoring Efficacy of Radiotherapy in Lung Cancer and Esophageal Cancer

Lung CancerEsophageal Cancer

Lung cancer, one of the malignant tumors which poses a threat to human's health, has increased morbidity and mortality recently. Radiotherapy, as one of the common treatments, has important value in clinical application. Esophageal cancer, one of the most common digestive system cancers, has poor prognosis and high mortality. Esophageal cancer has high aggressive and many patients can't get surgical treatment because of the tumor metastasis at the time of diagnosis.Currently, chemoradiotherapy has become one of the standard treatment regimens for patients with unresectable esophageal cancer in National Comprehensive Cancer Network(NCCN). So radiotherapy is one of the most important treatments in esophageal cancer. Currently, the efficacy evaluation method of radiotherapy is by imaging examination after several courses of treatment. However, new reports suggest that circulating tumor DNA(ctDNA) has the potential to be an indicator of therapeutic effectiveness and recurrence risk.
