TPF Concurrent Chemo-radiotherapy Plus Immunotherapy for Local Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Medium Dose of Three Drugs (TPF) Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy Combined With PD-1 Checkpoint Inhibitor for Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma --Prospective, Single Center, Single Arm, Phase II Clinical Study (FUTURE-2)
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Apr 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if immune microenvironment modification could improve the effect of chemoradiotherapy for patients with local advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does immune microenvironment could be modified by medium dose of three drugs (paclitaxel, cisplatin, 5-FU), PD1 checkpoint inhibitor, probiotics, and thymosin α1? 2. Does induction and consolidation of PD1 checkpoint inhibitor improve the effect of chemoradiotherapy for patients with esophageal cancer? This is a single arm study. Participants will: 1. Take one cycle of induction chemotherapy (paclitaxel, cisplatin, 5-FU) and immunotherapy (Sintilimab), two cycle of concurrent chemoradiotherapy, one cycle of consolidation chemo-immunotherapy, and then 1 year of immunotherapy. 2. Take probiotics (Clostridium Butyricum) for 1 year and thymosin alpha-1 daily during radiotherapy.

- Diagnosed as malignant diseases other than esophageal cancer within 3 years prior to initial administration (excluding those that have undergone curative treatment)
- Currently participating in intervention clinical research treatment, or having received other treatments within 4 weeks prior to initial administration Researching drugs or using research instruments for treatment;
- Previously received the following therapies: anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, or anti-PD-L2 drugs, or targeting another stimulus or synergistic inhibition of T cell receptors (such as CTLA-4, OX-40, CD137) Medications;
Other illness
- Due to the obvious invasion of tumors into adjacent organs (arteries or trachea) of the esophageal lesion, there is a higher risk of Patients at risk of bleeding or perforation, or those who have formed fistulas;
