Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin for stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.

Detailed Description

A surgical resection is currently the preferred treatment for esophageal cancer if the tumor is considered to be resectable without evidence of distant metastases.A higher percentage of radical resection is reported in studies using neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery versus surgery alone.The neoadjuvant chemotherapy may improve overall survival. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with administrations of paclitaxel combined with cisplatin or carboplatin has shown effectively.Nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab)-paclitaxel has better efficacy and practically eliminates the risk of hypersensitivity reactions associated with solvent-based paclitaxel.We try to evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin for stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.
