Study of AP203 for advanced solid tumors that grew despite treatment
This early-phase study tests AP203 (an investigational treatment) to see if it is safe and to look for signs it can shrink or control certain advanced cancers. The study includes a dose-finding part for many solid tumors, and a second part focused on specific lung and head/neck cancers that previously received PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07263919RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus cadonilimab before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests adding cadonilimab to standard chemotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer that can be removed. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Xi'anAges 18–75 - NCT07266480RecruitingPhase 2
Adalimumab after surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding adalimumab (a medicine that helps the immune system) after surgery can prevent esophageal cancer from coming back. It's for people who have already had their cancer completely removed by surgery.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07266493RecruitingPhase 2
Envafolimab plus chemo for esophageal cancer before surgery
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (Envafolimab) combined with standard chemotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer that has not spread far. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07244978RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether giving a new immunotherapy drug (ivonescimab) along with standard chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with resectable esophageal cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and increase the chance of successful surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06907602RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Optimizing treatment before surgery for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests different combinations of treatments given before surgery for a type of esophageal cancer called squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to find the best approach to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients whose cancer has not spread to distant organs.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 116 recruiting resectable esophageal 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 resectable esophageal 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 resectable esophageal 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.
