Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the percentage of patients alive at 6 months in elderly patients, not eligible to an platinum-based chemotherapy, but who can received the Tislelizumab treatment alone as first-line treatment for an advanced esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (ESCC).

Tislelizumab is a monoclonal antibody administred by intravenous infusion

This study aims to anwer too at the questions:

* the Safety of the drug
* Overall survival (OS) at 6 months according the diagnostic of PD-L1 expression (PD-L1 is a protein present on the surface of immune cells)
* Overall response rate (ORR) according to imagery criteria
* Progression-free survival (PFS) at 3 and 6 months according to imagery criteria and depending on PDL1 expression
* Patients' health-related quality of life
* OS and PFS according to geriatric parameters
* Prognostic value of immune biomarkers

Conditions

  • Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC)

Interventions

DRUG

Tislelizumab is a fully humanized monoclonal antibody specific for human PD-1

It is the first study which evaluate efficacy and safety of anti PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor alone in the first-line treatment of elderly esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma patients who no fit to received chemotherapy with platine
