Low-dose radiation, chemo, and immunotherapy before esophageal cancer surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a specific type of esophageal cancer called squamous cell carcinoma, and it hasn't spread to distant organs.
- You are well enough to have surgery to remove the tumor, and your doctor believes it can be completely removed.
- You are between 18 and 75 years old and able to perform daily activities with little to no help (ECOG score 0-1).
- Your blood counts, liver, kidney, and lung function are within healthy ranges.
- You have not had prior treatment for this cancer, including chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy.

This study tests whether giving a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and an immunotherapy drug (cadonilumab) before surgery can help shrink esophageal cancer and improve outcomes. It is for people with a specific type of esophageal cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body.
This trial tests a chemotherapy combination (nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin) given before surgery for locally advanced, operable esophageal squamous cell cancer. It aims to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes by treating cancer earlier while it’s still in one region.
This trial tests giving a combination of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and an immunotherapy drug before surgery for a type of esophageal cancer (squamous cell). The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients whose cancer can be surgically removed.
This trial tests a drug called Adebrelimab combined with chemotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer. It aims to shrink the tumor and make it easier to remove completely.
This trial tests if giving chemotherapy and radiation before surgery, followed by immunotherapy, can improve outcomes for people with a specific type of esophageal cancer that can be surgically removed.
