New hope for esophageal cancer: trial tests powerful drug combo to shrink tumors before surgery

NCT ID NCT07263919

Summary

This study is testing whether adding a new immunotherapy drug called cadonilimab to standard chemotherapy, given both before and after surgery, works better than chemotherapy alone for patients with a type of esophageal cancer that can be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink or eliminate the tumor more effectively before surgery and prevents the cancer from coming back afterward. Researchers will measure how many patients have no cancer left after treatment, how long patients live without the cancer returning, and the safety of the combination.
