Camrelizumab, Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Neoadjuvant Therapy
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of interferon-gamma combined with camrelizumab plus chemotherapy as neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Based on previous mechanistic research and preliminary clinical data, this trial intends to generate high-level evidence for this therapeutic strategy, which may improve the treatment landscape for patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Interventions
1,000,000 IU administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for a total of 3-4 cycles.
200 mg administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for a total of 3-4 cycles.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pathological complete response rate | At the time of surgical resection. | The proportion of patients achieving pathological complete response (absence of viable tumor cells in primary lesion and regional lymph nodes) evaluated by pathological examination of surgical specimens. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Survival | From date of enrollment until death from any cause, assessed up to 24 months. | Follow-up via outpatient visits or telephone interviews; defined as time from enrollment to death from any cause. |
| Duration of Response | From the date of first documented confirmed response until disease progression or death from any cause, assessed up to 24 months. | Time from first observation of confirmed CR or PR to disease progression or death from any cause, assessed per RECIST Version 1.1. |
| Objective Response Rate | At the end of Cycle 2, Cycle 4, (each cycle is 21 days). | The proportion of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) assessed per RECIST 1.1. |
| Progression-free survival | From date of enrollment until the date of first documented progression or death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 24 months. | Time from enrollment to disease progression (per RECIST 1.1) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. |
