Summary

This is a prospective, single-arm phase II clinical trial intended to investigate the efficacy of neoadjuvant CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody plus preoperative chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer. A total of 44 patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) will be enrolled.All enrolled subjects will receive induction therapy with the combination of a CTLA-4 inhibitor and a PD-1 inhibitor. Three weeks afterwards, patients will transition to concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with PD-1 inhibitor. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) will be delivered at a total dose of 40 Gy in 20 fractions. Radical esophagectomy with two-field thoracic and abdominal lymph node dissection will be performed 6-8 weeks after completion of chemoradiotherapy.The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the triplet regimen consisting of CTLA-4 inhibitor plus PD-1 inhibitor combined with preoperative chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced esophageal cancer, so as to further optimize the multimodal therapeutic strategy for esophageal cancer.
