First seen May 10, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether adding targeted radiation and an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) to a short course of chemotherapy and radiation can help control advanced esophageal cancer and relieve trouble swallowing. About 54 adults with cancer that has spread to a few other spots or is too advanced for surgery will receive the treatment. The main goal is to see how long the cancer stays under control.
