Brief summary

This is a single-institution, single arm trial of Toripalimab with neoadjuvant carboplatin and paclitaxel for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).The primary study hypothesis is that the patients who received Toripalimab combined with carboplatin and paclitaxel will increase complete pathologic response rate.

Detailed description

Enrolled patinets will receive two cycles of Toripalimab(240 mg administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes per 3 weeks), paclitaxel(135 mg/m2) and carboplatin(AUC 5) administered as an intravenous infusion per 3 weeks. Giving the drugs on the first day of each cycle.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Complete pathologic response rate3 monthsDefinition of complete pathologic response is no cancer cell, including lympho nodes which corresponds with tumor regression score 0. Definition of pathologic response is as follows. Tumor regression score Grade 0 and 1 will be defined as responder and 2 and 3 will be considered as non-responders

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Disease control rate3 monthsAccording to RECISIST1.1 standard,the disease control rate is the percentage of cases in which relief and stable lesions are obtained after treatment as a percentage of the total evaluable number.
Objective response rate3 monthsObjective response rate as assessed by RECISIST1.1 criteria, the percentage of subjects with CR or PR in the total number of subjects in the analysis data set during the period from the beginning of the treatment regimen to the disease progression date.
Incidence of adverse events6 monthsNumber of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by treatment-related adverse events assessed by CTCAE v4.0
