Summary

This study tests a new treatment sequence for people with advanced esophageal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. Participants will receive either the standard treatment (chemotherapy plus radiation) or an experimental approach that starts with a combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy, followed by radiation, and then maintenance immunotherapy. The goal is to see if the new sequence leads to better tumor shrinkage and longer time without cancer growth.
