Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Intestinal Flora
Conditions
Brief summary
This study collects stool, blood, and tumor tissue samples from patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer after receiving Sintilimab and chemotherapy to explore the efficacy and intestinal microbes of chemotherapy combined with neoadjuvant immunotherapy for locally advanced operable thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma The main purpose is the relationship between its metabolites, and it will also explore the changes of intestinal flora diversity and metabolites before and after esophageal squamous cell carcinoma chemotherapy combined with immune neoadjuvant therapy
Interventions
Sintilimab and chemotherapy are carried out at the same time for every 3 weeks

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* 1\) Age ≥18 years old and ≤75 years old; 2) Patients with stage I\ III thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma diagnosed by histopathological examination (excluding mixed adenosquamous carcinoma and other pathological types); 3) ECOG PS score is 0 or 1; 4) It has sufficient organ and bone marrow function.
Exclusion criteria
1. Refuse to participate; 2. Patients who have a higher risk of bleeding or perforation due to the tumor's obvious invasion of the adjacent organs (aorta or trachea) of the esophageal lesion, or patients who have formed a fistula; 3. Have previously received anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CD137 or anti-CTLA-4 antibody therapy, or any other antibodies targeting T cell costimulation or checkpoint pathways as specific targets or drug; 4. Participate in another interventional clinical study at the same time, unless participating in an observational (non-interventional) clinical study or in the follow-up phase of an interventional study; 5. Have received systemic systemic treatment with anti-tumor indications Chinese herbal medicine or immunomodulatory drugs (including thymosin, interferon, interleukin, etc.) within 2 weeks before the first administration; 6. Have used immunosuppressive drugs within 1 week before enrollment, excluding nasal spray, inhalation or other local glucocorticoids or physiological doses of systemic glucocorticoids (ie no more than 10mg/day prednisone Or equivalent doses of other glucocorticoids), or use hormones to prevent allergy to contrast agents.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Species and abundance of gut microbiota | 2 year | Alpha-diversity of samples, that measures both the richness and diversity of species within a group, was calculated on taxa that were observed at least once. Beta-diversity, that measures the differences in microbiome composition between groups. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Explore the changes of intestinal flora and metabolomics before and after medication | 2 year | Discovery of gut microbes and metabolic markers that can predict the efficacy of chemotherapy combined with neoadjuvant immunotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma |
