Overview

Brief Summary

The primary objective is to compare PD-1 inhibitor combined with preoperative chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery versus neo-adjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery, in terms of the overall survival time (OS) in patients with Stage T1-4aN1-3M0 or T3-4aN0M0 squamous cell esophageal carcinoma.

Arms & Interventions

NCRT+IO group

• NCRT+IO group consists of the PD-1 inhibitor combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy prior to surgery. The patient will receive 4 weeks of radiation therapy. The radiation will generally commence on the 1st day of treatment and will run for 4 weeks.PD-1 inhibitor is given by intravenous infusion on days 1 and 22. Chemotherapy is given by intravenous infusion on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Interventions: * Radiation: (40 or 45 Gy/20 fractions) * Drug: Sintilimab * Drug: Paclitaxel * Drug: Cisplatin

Intervention: Sintilimab

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Overall survival

Time Frame: At end of enrollment- up to 5 years in follow up

Overall survival will be calculated from the date of randomization and an event registered on the date of death from any cause. Patients lost to follow up, or those with no death recorded on the day the database is frozen, will be censored on the date of last follow up.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Perioperative mortality(Ninety after surgery)
  • Progression free survival(At end of enrollment- up to 5 years in follow up)
  • Pathologic complete response rate(Two weeks after surgery)
  • Incidence of perioperative complications(Ninety days after surgery)
  • R0 resection rate(Two weeks after surgery)
