Summary:
The goal of this single-arm study is to explore the efficacy and safety of Adebrelimab in
combination with Apatinib and Tegafur for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic
esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that has failed first-line standard treatment with
PD-1 inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy.
Detailed description:
Background: Although immune combined chemotherapy has established its position as the
first-line standard treatment for locally advanced unresectable or metastatic esophageal
cancer, resistance and disease progression inevitably occur in most patients. While
earlier studies have shown some therapeutic advantages of the combination of PD-1/PDL1
inhibitors with anti-angiogenic drugs, the efficacy as a second-line treatment remains
unsatisfactory, necessitating further exploration of combination therapies such as
chemotherapy.We conduct this single-arm study is to explore the efficacy and safety of
Adebrelimab in combination with Apatinib and Tegafur in treating the patients with
locally advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who has failed
first-line standard treatment with PD-1 inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy.
Method: This is a prospective single arm two-stage phase II study, with an intended
enrollment of 32 patients. Eligible patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma will
receive Adebrelimab at a dose of 20mg/kg, on day 1 via intravenous drip every 21 days, in
combination with Apatinib at a dose of 250mg orally once daily on days 1-21 every 21
days, and Tegafur orally once daily on days 1-21 every 21 days(BSA<1.25m2,40mg;
BSA=1.25~1.5m2,50mg;BSA>1.5m2, 60mg). Each treatment cycle lasts for 21 days. Treatment
will continue until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of informed
consent, or death. Imaging evaluation for efficacy will be conducted every 6 to 8 weeks
(±7 days) after the start of the initial treatment until disease progression, death,
initiation of new anticancer therapy, withdrawal of informed consent, loss to follow-up,
or study termination. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR), and
secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS),
disease control rate (DCR), and safety.
