About this study

This study collects stool, blood, and tumor tissue samples from patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer after receiving Sintilimab and chemotherapy to explore the efficacy and intestinal microbes of chemotherapy combined with neoadjuvant immunotherapy for locally advanced operable thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma The main purpose is the relationship between its metabolites, and it will also explore the changes of intestinal flora diversity and metabolites before and after esophageal squamous cell carcinoma chemotherapy combined with immune neoadjuvant therapy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Species and abundance of gut microbiota

    Alpha-diversity of samples, that measures both the richness and diversity of species within a group, was calculated on taxa that were observed at least once.

    Beta-diversity, that measures the differences in microbiome composition between groups.

    Measured: 2 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Explore the changes of intestinal flora and metabolomics before and after medication

    Discovery of gut microbes and metabolic markers that can predict the efficacy of chemotherapy combined with neoadjuvant immunotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

    Measured: 2 year

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

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 Jun Zhao (86-0512-67972216, zhaojia0327@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Species and abundance of gut microbiota (time frame: 2 year). 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 NCT05199649, which also lists 5 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 20 Jan 2022.
