About this study

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination treatment of chidamide, camrelizumab, and apatinib in patients with advanced esophageal cancer. This open-label, phase II clinical trial will involve randomly assigning participants to receive either the combination of these drugs or a standard treatment. The primary endpoints is ORR and the second endpoints include progression-free survival and overall survival, while safety will also be assessed.

Being tested
chidamide+Camrelizumab+Apatinib, Irinotecan or Docetaxel or Paclitaxel

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing chidamide+Camrelizumab+Apatinib and Irinotecan or Docetaxel or Paclitaxel in people with Advanced Esophageal Carcinoma, run by Peking University 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 5 inclusion and 1 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 2024. 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Zhihao Lu, MD (13810549767, 13810549767@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Objective Response Rate(ORR) (time frame: up to 24 months). 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 20 Dec 2024.
