HAIC Combined Sintilimab for Liver Metastasis From Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
A Phase 1 study testing HAIC combined with intravenous PD-1 in people with Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy and Liver Metastases, run by Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
Patients with liver metastasis from esophagus squamous (ESC) are usually offered systemic therapy. However, for those with predominant liver disease or failure of system therapy, local liver management becomes an option. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy Combined Sintilimab for Predominant Liver Metastasis From Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma- A Pilot Study
Patients with liver metastasis from esophagus squamous (ESC) are usually offered systemic therapy. However, for those with predominant liver disease or failure of system therapy, local liver management becomes an option. This prospective single center study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using percutaneous catheter placement techniques for liver metastases from esophagus squamous (ESC).
- Conditions
- Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy, Liver Metastases, Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
- Being tested
- HAIC combined with intravenous PD-1
- Keywords
- hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy, liver metastasis, esophagus carcinoma
- Medical subject headings
- Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Esophageal Neoplasms
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
HAIC combined with intravenous PD-1Drug
Hepatic arterial chemoinfusion (HAIC) was used for interventional therapy with at least 2 cycles of hepatic arterial infusion. The intervention was started with sintilimab at the same time, 200mg each time, and the drug was repeated every 3 weeks.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with liver metastasis | Experimental | Patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with liver metastasis have poor response to first-line treatment, especially those with advanced esophageal cancer with progression or recurrence in the liver. Receives: Drug: HAIC combined with intravenous PD-1 |

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.

However, for those with predominant liver disease or failure of system therapy, local liver management becomes an option. This prospective single center study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using percutaneous catheter placement techniques for liver metastases from esophagus squamous (ESC).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing HAIC combined with intravenous PD-1 in people with Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy and Liver Metastases, run by Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute at 1 site in China.
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 9 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Dec 2023. 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Adverse Events (time frame: Up to 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Dec 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
