About this trial

This study was a single-center, single-arm, open-label phase II clinical trial. Thirty patients with unresectable locally advanced or postoperative recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with immunotherapy. The radiotherapy regimen was intensity-modulated radiotherapy with PGTV at 50-50.4 Gy/25-28 fractions, 1.8-2 Gy per fraction, five times a week. The chemotherapy regimen was paclitaxel 50 mg/m2 and cisplatin 25 mg/m2 intravenous infusion on day 1, once a week for five times. The immunotherapy was with adebutilimab at 20 mg/kg on day 1, every three weeks for three times. One week before radiotherapy, gastroscopy, chest CT or PET-CT images were taken as the baseline standard. Based on the results of gastroscopy, chest CT or PET-CT before and after treatment, the number of patients with complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD) in the two groups was observed. The objective response rate (ORR) was calculated as CR + PR, and the disease control rate (DCR) was calculated as CR + PR + SD. The progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), 1-year and 2-year survival rates and adverse reactions were also statistically analyzed.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age 18-75 years old, gender unlimited

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma confirmed by histology and unresectable locally advanced or postoperative recurrence

According to the solid tumor efficacy evaluation criteria (RECIST1.1), there is at least one measurable lesion; And the lesion had not received prior radiotherapy

ECOG: 0~1

Disqualifiers

Other malignant tumors have been diagnosed within the previous 5 years

There is distant organ metastasis (according to AJCC stage, supraclavicular lymph node metastasis is M1, which should be excluded)

Lesions invading the trachea or large blood vessels, or investigators judge that there is a high risk of esophageal/tracheal fistula or bleeding

Have any history of active autoimmune disease or autoimmune disease

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Objective response rate at 3 months after radiotherapy (ORR)

ORR includes Complete Response (CR) and Partial Response (PR) according to accepted response evaluation criteria (such as solid tumor RECIST version 1.1), (1) Complete response (CR) : Except for nodular disease, all target lesions disappeared completely. All target nodules must be reduced to normal size (short axis \< 10 mm). All target lesions must be evaluated. (2) Partial response (PR) : Total diameter of all measurable target lesions is ≥ 30% below baseline. The short diameter was used for the sum of the target nodules, while the longest diameter was used for the sum of all other target lesions. All target lesions must be evaluated.

Time frame
Three months after radiation

Secondary outcomes

1

Overall survival

Time frame
From the date of treatment initiation (or diagnosis) to the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 120 months
2

Progression free survival

Time frame
The time from the start of treatment to tumor progression or death due to any cause, assessed up to 120 months
3

Clinical complete response rate

Except for nodular disease, all target lesions disappeared completely. All target nodules must be reduced to normal size (short axis \< 10 mm). All target lesions must be evaluated

Time frame
"Monitored throughout the treatment period and during follow-up, an average of 2 years"
4

Quality of life scores of cancer patients

Assess the patient's physical function, psychological state, social function, symptom burden, and overall health status through telephone follow-ups, return visits for review, and other methods .The measurement tool is SF-36 Quality of Life Assessment Scale

Time frame
"Monitored throughout the treatment period and during follow-up, an average of 2 years
