Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy to ESCC
April 19, 2022 updated by: Sang Shaowei, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University
Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy Combined With Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer: an Open Label, Randomized Control, Phase II Trial
Currently, surgery after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, but the recurrence rate is high and the 5-year survival rate is low.
Immunotherapy shows a potential treatment for esophageal cancer.
Immunocheckpoint (PD-1/PD-L1) inhibitors can activate tumor immunity.
The guidelines have recommended it as a sencond-line therapy.
However, there is still lack of the evidence for its efficacy as a neoadjuvant therapy.
This study is to conduct a randomized controlled, open label, phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant immnotherapy combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patient with PD-L1 (CPS>=10%) positive.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: intervention group
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy (PD-1) plus concurrent chemotherapy (paclitaxel + Cisplatin) will be applied to patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with PD-L1>=10% before surgery.
|

|
Active Comparator: controll group
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel + Cisplatin) will be applied to patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with PD-L1>=10% before surgery.
|
Paclitaxel 150mg/m2 on day 1, every 3 weeks, for two cycles; Cisplatin 70mg/m2 on day 1, every 3 weeks, for two cycles; 4-6 weeks after completion of preoperative therapy, Mckeown esophagectomy will be performed if there is no contraindication.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Major Pathological Response (MPR) rate
Time Frame: 30 days after the second cycle of treatment(each cycle is 21 days)
|
MPR is defined as 10% or fewer viable cancer cells in the hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained slides from the resected tumor following neoadjuvant treatment.
|
30 days after the second cycle of treatment(each cycle is 21 days)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: at the end of the second cycle of treatment(each cycle is 21 days)
|
ORR determines the tumor shrinkage rate, tumor boundary and the adhesion of tumor
|
at the end of the second cycle of treatment(each cycle is 21 days)
|
2-year progression-free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: every 3 months (up to 24 months)
|
From date of surgery until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause
|
every 3 months (up to 24 months)
|
The incidence of adverse events
Time Frame: the day from the first treatment cycle
|
Safety will be evaluated for all treated patients using CTCAE V 5.0.
|
the day from the first treatment cycle
