About this study

Official title: The Third Phase of Immunotherapy and Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy in Patients With Esophageal Cancer Recurrence Was Compared With the Clinical Comparison

Esophageal cancer is still a serious threat to human life and health. China in particular. Relapse and metastasis are important causes of treatment failure. Immunotherapy is a new treatment method, which can be used in combination with chemotherapy to improve the therapeutic effect. However, the role of immunotherapy combined with chemoradiotherapy in concurrent chemoradiotherapy of recurrent esophageal cancer has not been clearly studied. Our team will study it in detail.

The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the effect of Camrelizumab in concurrent chemoradiotherapy of locally recurrent esophageal cancer.

Read the detailed description

In this study, patients with local recurrence of esophageal carcinoma without distant metastasis were randomly divided into experimental group and control group by Block randomization. In the experimental group, patients with local recurrence were treated with Camrelizumab combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Followed up for 3 years to observe the objective remission rate and disease-free survival. In the control group, patients with local recurrence were treated with placebo combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Followed up for 3 years to observe the objective remission rate and disease-free survival.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 May 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Shegan Gao, M.D,Ph.D (18638859977, gsg112258@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Grade 3/4 acute toxicities (time frame: 90 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04404491, which also lists 10 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 May 2020.
