Immunotherapy and Chemoradiation for Advanced Esophageal Cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (adebrelimab) plus standard chemotherapy and radiation for people with advanced esophageal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if adding the immunotherapy before and during chemoradiation helps control the cancer better.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT06561178Recruiting
Blood Test to Monitor Esophageal Cancer After Surgery
This trial looks at whether a personalized blood test can detect cancer returning after surgery for esophageal cancer. It tests people who had chemoradiotherapy before surgery and still had some cancer remaining in the removed tissue. The goal is to use the blood test to catch any remaining or returning cancer early.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06563869RecruitingPhase 3
Sintilimab with chemo and growth factor before esophageal cancer surgery

- 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.
