Active clinical trials for "Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma"

This study used an open single center study design to observe the efficacy and safety of Penpulimab combined with Chemoradiotherapy(CRT) in preoperative T2,3,4aN0-1-2M0 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

This study is a single-arm, prospective, open-label clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tislelizumab combined with chemoradiotherapy in first-line treatment of patients with stage IVb esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Chemoradiotherapy has been a standard modality for inoperable locally advance esophageal carcinoma. The goal of this randomized control study is to compare the feasibility, and survival benefits of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs for local advanced patients with inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: • If the feasibility and safety of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is better. • If the survival benefits (1, 2 and 3-years progression free survival) of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is longer. The Experimental group will receive a combination immunonutrition of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutamine, whereas the control group will receive standard formula.

The prognosis of ESCC is poor with a five-year overall survival rate of 10 to 30 %. Randomized clinical trials have demonstrated that TMT, consisted of neoadjuvant concurrent CCRT and radical esophagectomy, improves the overall survival for patients with resectable locally advanced disease. As a consequence, it is mandatory to develop new pharmacotherapeutic regimen for TMT. In our previous prospective studies, we found higher levels of serum immune-related biomarkers, VEGF-A, TGF-β1, and soluble PD-L1, before neoadjuvant CCRT were independent associated with inferior overall survival and disease-free survival for locally advanced ESCC treated with neoadjuvant CCRT plus radical esophagectomy. In the present clinical trial, we plan to investigate whether incorporation of tiragolumab (Anti-TIGIT) and atezolizumab (Anti-PD-L1) into standard TMT will be safe while improve the pathological complete response rate. By the present research, we expect to develop a new TMT regimen for this poor prognostic disease.

The incidence and mortality of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma are at the forefront in China.Most part of patients are elderly. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Most elderly patients cannot tolerate concurrent chemotherapy because of complications and other reasons. Immunotherapy has definite efficacy and low toxicity in advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and the results combined with radiotherapy have also been preliminarily reported. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy combined with immunotherapy in elderly patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

200 patients with advanced esophageal cancer who received PD-1 monoclonal antibody treatment would be enrolled in this study. Changes in peripheral blood immune cells before and after treatment would be recorded and used for machine learning to establish a prediction model for the efficacy of PD-1 monoclonal antibody treatment.

To analyze the relationship between the dynamic changes of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and tumor relapse of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated by concurrent chemoradiotherapy.

Comparison of esophagectomy with Two-field Versus Three-field lymphadenectomy in locally advanced ESCC patients after neoadjuvant therapy

This multi-site, Phase 1/2 clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype, and the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO212 when given with select SOC for the treatment of solid tumor patients with radiographically confirmed uncontrolled brain metastasis. The study will have three phases, Phase 1, Phase 2a and Phase 2b.

Chemotherapy is the main treatment method for patients with Esophageal Cancer. However, Relapse remains the major cause of treatment failure.Biological therapies such as CIK stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing. A series of studies reported that cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) have a broad anti-tumor spectrum. The investigators suppose that CIK will improve the prognosis. Combining chemotherapy with biological therapy may kill more tumor cells. In this study, the patients will be treated with CIK cells after chemotherapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of CIK for Esophageal Cancer.
