Chemoradiotherapy, Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Immunonutrition, Inoperable
Conditions
Brief summary
Chemoradiotherapy has been a standard modality for inoperable locally advance esophageal carcinoma. The goal of this randomized control study is to compare the feasibility, and survival benefits of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs for local advanced patients with inoperable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: • If the feasibility and safety of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is better. • If the survival benefits (1, 2 and 3-years progression free survival) of whole-course immunonutrition combined with chemoradiotherapy±ICIs is longer. The Experimental group will receive a combination immunonutrition of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutamine, whereas the control group will receive standard formula.
Interventions
The Experimental group received a combination of omega-3 fatty acids, and glutamine, whereas the control group received standard formula.
