Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Neoadjuvant therapy, Immunotherapy, CDK4/6 inhibitor
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to explore the safety and feasibility of anti-programmed cell death ligand 1(PD-L1) immunotherapy, Adebrelimab, combined with cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 blockade, Dalpiciclib, as a new neoadjuvant treatment regimen for patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
Interventions
Adebrelimab will be given at a dose of 20 mg per kilogram of body weight every three weeks on day 23 of a planned 28-day cycle, and two doses before surgery.
Dalpiciclib will be given at a dose of 100 mg every day orally with three weeks on and one week off. Four weeks is a cycle and it will be given for two cycles.
Dalpiciclib will be given at a dose of 150 mg every day orally with three weeks on and one week off. Four weeks is a cycle and it will be given for two cycles.

Currently undergoing other chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy or immunotherapy. 3. History of other malignancies. 4. Have an active autoimmune disease requiring systemic treatment or a documented history of clinically severe autoimmune disease. 5. Any history of allergic disease, or a sever hypersensitivity reaction to drugs, or allergy to the study drug components. 6. Presence of serious medical diseases, such as grade II and above cardiac dysfunction (NYHA criteria), ischemic heart diseases, etc. 7. The patients with severe systematic intercurrent diseases, including active infection or poorly controlled diabetes, coagulation disorders, hemorrhagic tendency, or those undergoing thrombolysis or anticoagulant therapy, are excluded from the study. 8. Female participants who test positive for a serum pregnancy test, are in the lactation period, or are at a childbearing stage and unwilling to use contraception measures during the research are excluded. 9.

Any other factors that are not suitable for inclusion in this study judged by investigators.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Safety of combination adebrelimab and dalpiciclib as assessed by number of participants who experience adverse events | up to 15 weeks | Number of participants who experience grade 1 or higher adverse events, as defined by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (CTCAE v5.0). |
| Feasibility of combination adebrelimab and dalpiciclib as assessed by number of participants who experience adverse events | up to 15 weeks | Patients proceed to surgery without experiencing prolonged treatment-related delays. An extended treatment-related delay will be considered if it exceeds 37 days from the initially scheduled surgery date. In terms of feasibility, if there is any treatment toxicity of any grade that could adversely impact prognosis, as judged by the investigators, the planned operative date should be re-evaluated. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Objective response rate (ORR) | up to 15 weeks | Proportion of participants with measurable disease at baseline and have been re-evaluated after at least 1 cycle of therapy with observed reduction in tumor burden as defined by RECIST and iRECIST criteria after 2 doses of Proportion of participants with measurable disease at baseline and have been re-evaluated after at least 1 cycle of therapy with observed reduction in tumor burden as defined by RECIST and iRECIST criteria after 2 doses of Adebrelimab and Dalpiciclib |
| Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of dalpiciclib as determined by number of participants with dose limiting toxicities (DLT) | up to 15 weeks | Maximum tolerated dose will be determined by the maximum dose at which the least number of participants experience dose-limiting toxicity. The dose limiting toxicity is defined using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). |
| Overall survival (OS) | Up to 2 years | Proportion of participants who achieve survival post treatment |
| Progression free survival(PFS) | Up to 2 years | Proportion of participants who achieve progression free survival post treatment |
| Major Pathologic Response | up to 15 weeks | Major Pathologic Response (MPR) was defined as fewer than 10% viable tumor cells. |
