Oncolytic Virus Combined With Chemotherapy and Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Patients With Initially Unresectable Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma：An Open-label, Single-arm Phase II Study
This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of an oncolytic virus combined with chemotherapy and an immune checkpoint inhibitor in patients with initially unresectable, locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The primary endpoints are safety and event-free survival (EFS). Secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and quality of life (QoL). Exploratory endpoints include biomarker analyses such as single-cell sequencing.
• A. Age 18-80 years B. Diagnosed with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accompanied by cervical lymph node metastases.
⁃ C. Ability to provide fresh tumor tissue samples (baseline) D. Normal major organ function E. Performance status (PS) score ≤ 1 F. Patients of childbearing potential must use contraception G. Voluntary participation with signed informed consent H. Able to comply with the study protocol, follow-up schedule, and other protocol requirements.
