Stage IV Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Nimotuzumab Plus Nab-paclitaxel and Cisplatin in Treating Patients With Advanced Esophageal Carcinoma
There have been reports suggesting that anti-epidermal growth factor antibody nimotuzumab is advantageous for advanced esophageal cancer patients in combination with chemotherapy or radiotherapy.And,albumin-bound paclitaxel was characterized with high tolerated doses with greater efficacy,and with greater concentration in tumor tissue compared with normal tissues.So,The objective of this single-arm phase II trial was to evaluate the benefit of nimotuzumab plus nab-paclitaxel and cisplatin in patients with advanced esophageal carcinoma.
In the past decade, clinical trials have evaluated the role of chemotherapy, radiation, or both, for patients with advanced esophageal carcinoma, but have all failed to demonstrate a consistent survival benefit. In Eastern countries, Chemotherapy became one of the treatment strategies for advanced esophageal cancer. In an effort to improve the efficacy of systemic chemotherapy, the investigators conducted a prospective study to evaluate the regimen of Nimotuzumab plus Nab-paclitaxel/cisplatin for patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. ;
