Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06964568RecruitingPhase 3
Chemoradiation followed by immunotherapy for esophageal cancer
This trial tests a treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer. You'll receive chemoradiation (chemo plus radiation) followed by a maintenance drug (a PD-1 inhibitor) to help prevent the cancer from coming back.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06676449RecruitingPhase 3
A study on radiation-sparing treatment for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a new approach for advanced esophageal cancer that combines targeted radiation, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy. It aims to see if skipping radiation to certain lymph nodes can improve outcomes while reducing side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05317819RecruitingPhase 3
Test ADI-PEG 20 versus placebo for advanced liver cancer
This study tests whether ADI-PEG 20 helps people with advanced, unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) who have high arginine levels. Participants get ADI-PEG 20 or a placebo to see which works better and improves outcomes.
ChanghuaAges 18–99 - NCT06474468RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug combo for advanced esophageal cancer

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced esophageal carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 201 recruiting advanced esophageal carcinoma studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced esophageal carcinoma trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced esophageal carcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
