Study summary

This prospective study aims to clarify the clinical efficacy and survival prognosis of neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) combined with chemotherapy for esophageal cancer. It also explores predictive biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for locally advanced esophageal cancer based on plasma metabolomics and peripheral blood immune cell clustering analysis. Each patient received 2-3 cycles of neoadjuvant immunotherapy with programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) blockade in combination with albumin paclitaxel and platinum. Exploratory analysis of plasma metabolomics combined with peripheral blood subsets of immune cells can reveal biomarkers that predict the efficacy and prognosis of patients undergoing neoadjuvant immunotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer, which also provide new ideas for the selection of immune adjuvants and therapeutic targets in ICIs combination therapy strategies.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Disease-free survival (DFS)

    Disease-free survival was defined as the time from randomization until the first documented disease recurrence or death due to any cause.

    Time frame: 24 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pathologic complete remission (PCR)

    Primary tumor or lymph node surgery specimen pathological examination without residual tumor cell.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after surgery

  2. Major Pathologic Response (MPR)

    MPR was defined as the presence of viable tumor cells≤10% in the resected tumor specimen.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after surgery

  3. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival was defined as the time from randomization grouping to the time of death due to any cause.

    Time frame: 24 months
