SCR-ESCC-02 is a multicenter, phase I/II clinical study to investigate the safety and efficacy of induction immunochemotherapy followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy with anti-PD-1 therapy in patients diagnosed with locally advanced, unresectable esophageal cancer.
Oesophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is a cancer of the food pipe that affects around 2000 patients in the UK every year. It is often detected at an advanced stage, resulting in poor survival (5-year survival less than 20%). Early detection can improve survival (5-year survival >70%). Therefore, early detection is vital to improving survival. There are no national screening guidelines, and an endoscopy (A camera test to look at the food pipe) is the only available test to detect OSCC. Early detection of OSCC is challenging for many reasons. Firstly, early disease symptoms are non-specific, which patients often overlook. Secondly, 'Alarm' symptoms such as weight loss, difficulty swallowing or vomiting blood are signs of advanced stage. Lastly, endoscopy is an invasive test with associated risks and significant discomfort. The investigators propose to develop a breath test for patients with non-specific symptoms. Breath testing has the ideal characteristics for a triage test because it is non-invasive, simple to perform, cost-effective and highly acceptable to patients. The test is based on identifying volatile organic compounds (VOCs, small molecules) that are produced by the cancer and released in breath. The breath test will be offered by General Practitioners (GPs) to patients with non-specific symptoms. Those who test positive will be referred for an urgent camera test, and those who test negative can be reassured.
This project intends to study the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy in the perioperative treatment of AEG.
Both neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CROSS) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (FLOT) have demonstrated overall survival benefit over surgery alone in esophageal and esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancer. Despite these survival gains, the prognosis remains poor, especially in patients with nodal-positive adenocarcinoma (cN+ AC) (5-year survival 36%, compared to 55% for cN0). This highlights the need for more effective treatment options, and justifies treatment intensification in these patients. The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy and feasibility of TNT FLOT-CROSS and TNT CROSS-FLOT in patients with resectable, cN+ AC of the esophagus or EGJ.
The goal of observational study is to learn about the outcomes of the participants. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. ESD additional postoperative radiotherapy in patients with non healing SESCC overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) 2. The adverse events (AE) of additional radiotherapy after ESD for non-curative SESCC patients were counted, and its safety was evaluated. Participants will receive radiation therapy as necessary.
This is an open-label, single-arm, single-center clinical study to investigate the safety and efficacy of fuquinitinib combined with PD-1 inhibitors and first-line chemotherapy in the treatment of inoperable HER2-negative advanced GC/GEJC. Eligible enrolled patients received 6 cycles of combined treatment with fuquinitinib combined with PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy (XELOX/SOX) regimen. Maintenance treatment was fuquinitinib combined with PD-1 inhibitor and Teghio/capecitabine until disease progression or toxicity became intolerable. The longest duration of PD-1 inhibitor treatment is 24 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of perioperative Disitamab Vedotin plus Toripalimab and XELOX versus Disitamab Vedotin plus Toripalimab versus XELOX in subjects with HER2-expressing resectable locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
To analyze and compare the long-term recurrence-free survival rate, overall survival rate and quality of survival after minimally invasive esophagectomy and open esophagectomy, and to conduct subgroup analysis according to the type of esophageal cancer and pathological stage, etc., and to explore more deeply the differences between minimally invasive esophagectomy and open esophagectomy in terms of the benefits for different types of patients, so as to provide reference for the selection of the clinical surgical methods. We will also use the available data to analyze the influence of other factors on patients' long-term survival after surgery.
Definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard treatment option for unresectable locally advanced esophageal cancer. However, as high as more than 40% of patients with esophageal cancer experienced locoregional recurrence after definitive CRT. Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1/PD-L1 and/or CTLA-4 have shown substantial clinical benefits in advanced esophageal cancer. Recently, the combination of immunotherapy with CRT has emerged as a promising strategy to improve clinical outcomes in esophageal cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of cadonilimab (a bispecific PD-1/CTLA-4 antibody) combined with induction chemotherapy followed by definitive radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
