Brief Title: Efficacy and Safety of Concurrent PD-1 Inhibitor and Radiotherapy With Immunonutrition for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Official Title: Efficacy and Safety of Concurrent Sintilimab and Radiotherapy With Immunonutrition Support in Esophageal Cancer: A Phase II Multicenter Clinical Trial
Study ID: NCT06342167
Brief Summary: At present, concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) with platin-based dual-drug regimen is the standard treatment for inoperable, locally advanced esophageal cancer in patients with a good performance status. However, cCRT has substantial toxic effects, and a large number of patients with older age, malnutrition and other morbidities, cannot tolerate cCRT. Several phase II trials showed combining PD-1 inhibitor with definitive cCRT provided encouraging activity and acceptable toxicity in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC). Therefore, this single-arm, multicenter, phase II trial aims to assess the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy plus radiotherapy with immunonutrition support in patients with LA-ESCC and positive PD-L1 expression who are intolerant to cCRT.
Detailed Description: This single-arm trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of concurrent immunotherapy (sintilimab) plus radiotherapy with immunonutrition support (enteral nutritional emulsion (TPF-T) followed by consolidation immunotherapy in patients with LA-ESCC and PD-L1 positive expression who are intolerant to cCRT. The eligible patients will receive concurrent treatment consisting of total dose of 50-50.4 Gy in 25-28 fractions and 200 mg of sintilimab administered every three weeks, along with enteral nutritional emulsion (TPF-T) support (600-1600 ml per day according to the nutrition status evaluation). The primary outcome is 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate. The investigators hypothesized PD-L1 inhibitor plus radiotherapy will improve the 1-year PFS from 40% to 60%. Then, 58 patients will be needed in total. The secondary outcomes will include objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), progression-free and overall survival, and incidence of adverse events.
