In the management of locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, the outcomes associated with surgical resection, whether conducted alone or supplemented with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy, have been suboptimal. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have shown potential in enhancing the immune system's capacity to target and eliminate cancer cells. Evidence suggests that the concurrent administration of JAK inhibitors with ICIs may improve anti-cancer efficacy, increase patient response rates, and prolong progression-free survival compared to ICIs alone. This prospective, exploratory study aims to assess the efficacy of combining camrelizumab, chemotherapy, and Ivarmacitinib in neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, with the objective of broadening therapeutic options for this malignancy.
