Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression-free survival (PFS)From date of randomization up to 4 years, approximately

PFS is- defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease progression, as determined by the Blinded Independent Review Committee (BIRC) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall survival (OS)From date of randomization up to 4 years, approximately

OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause.

Change from baseline in European Quality of Life-Core 30 Questionnaire index (EORTC QLQ-C30)Baseline to end of treatment ~2 years

The EORTC QLQ-30 contains 30 questions that incorporate 5 functional scales (physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, and social functioning), 1 global health status scale, 3 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, and pain), and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). The participant answers questions about their health during the past week. There are 28 questions answered on a 4-point scale where 1 =Not at all (best) to 4 =Very Much (worst) and 2 questions answered on a 7-point scale where 1 =Very poor (worst) to 7 =Excellent (best).

Change from baseline in European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire esophageal cancer module (EORTC QLQ-OES18)Up to 2 years, approximately

Total of 18 questions to assess your symptoms or problems during the past week, each assessed on a scale from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much). with the range from minimum scores 1 as better outcome and maximum 4 as worst outcomes. Symptoms includes whether any difficulty to eating solids, liquidized or softs food, drinking, or not, whether it is difficult to or swallowing, trouble eating or enjoying meals, pain when eating, dry mouth, food tasting differently, trouble talking, , whether the sense of smell and conversation are normal or not, whether have Symptoms include cough, indigestion or heartburn, acid reflux and pain or not in the chest or stomach.

Overall response rate (ORR)From date of randomization up to 4 years, approximately

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who had complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as assessed by BIRC per RECIST v1.1

Duration of response (DOR)From first determination of an objective response up to 4 years, approximately

DOR is defined as the time from the first occurrence of a documented objective response to the time of relapse, as determined by the BIRC per RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first

Number of Participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)Up to 2 years, approximately

Adverse events will be graded according to National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events
