- NCT05507411RecruitingPhase 2
Watch-and-wait after chemo-radiation plus immunotherapy for esophagus cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (camrelizumab) to standard chemo-radiation can help some people with operable esophagus cancer avoid immediate surgery, using a “watch and wait” approach. If it works, it may reduce the need for early surgery for carefully selected patients.

This trial studies whether adding an anti-PD-1 immunotherapy (with chemotherapy) together with radiation can help people with advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer. It’s for cases where surgery or standard definitive chemoradiation can’t be done, or the cancer has spread to distant sites.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05775419Recruiting
Chemo and radiation, with or without extra chemo after

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung squamous cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 585 recruiting lung squamous cell 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 lung squamous cell 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 lung squamous cell 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.
