Filter by:This research study is evaluating a new type of esophagus cancer vaccine called "Personalized Neoantigen Cancer Vaccine" as a possible treatment for esophagus cancer patients who have completed adjuvant therapy following neoadjuvant therapy and surgical resection. The purpose of the clinical study is evaluating the safety, tolerability and partial efficacy of the personalized neoantigen cancer vaccine in the treatment of resectable esophagus cancer, so as to provide a new personalized therapeutic strategy.
Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery has become the standard treatment option for locally advanced esophageal cancer (EC). However, only 20% to 40% of EC patients can achieve pathologic complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant CRT with favorable prognosis. Immunotherapy targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoints has demonstrated promising activity in advanced EC. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of toripalimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) combined with neoadjuvant CRT in locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
This is a 2 part Phase I/II clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability and efficacy of avelumab in combination with chemoradiation in patients with resectable esophageal and gastroesophageal cancer. Part 1: This is the run-in phase of the trial. This portion will determine the safety and tolerability of avelumab in combination with chemoradiotherapy in 6 patients. The proposed combination will be considered as safe if dose limiting toxicities are observed in at most 1 patient. Part 2: This is a Phase 2 portion of the trial, which will evaluate the efficacy of the proposed treatment regimen in patients with stage II/III resectable esophageal and gastroesophageal cancer
Despite the availability of several preoperative diagnostic techniques, accurate pretreatment staging of esophageal cancer (EC) remains challenging. Therefore, The investigators evaluated the prognostic significance of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with EC.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the addition of the combination between cetuximab and radiotherapy to the standard chemotherapy for resectable oesophageal cancer is safe and adds efficacy.
