Summary

Definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard treatment option for unresectable esophageal cancer (EC). However, as high as more than 40% of EC patients experienced locoregional recurrence after concurrent CRT. 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 definitive CRT in locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

Conditions

  • Unresectable Esophageal Cancer
