Oncolytic Virus in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
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
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 8 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
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, surgical conversion rate 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.
