Official title

A Phase I/II Open Label Multi Center Study of Immune Checkpoint Therapy With Nivolumab for Patients With Locally Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

In this multi-institution phase I/II trial, the investigators have chosen paclitaxel and carboplatin using a schedule and doses identical to those used in the CROSS trial. Following a run-in with nivolumab alone at 240 mg IVPB every 2 weeks for 2 doses, nivolumab at 240 mg every 2 weeks will be added to paclitaxel and carboplatin, which will be dosed according to the standard of care established by the CROSS trial: paclitaxel 50 mg/m2 weekly for 6 weeks and carboplatin AUC 2 weekly for 6 weeks. Concurrent radiation will be administered with chemotherapy at 1.8 Gy/fraction × 28 fractions to a total dose of 50.4 Gy, the standard radiation dose administered in the United States for trimodality therapy that includes concurrent therapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel. A decrease in dose to 41.4 Gy per the protocol established by van Hagen, et al. will be permitted before discontinuing therapy due to unacceptable toxicity. While the CROSS study administered only 5 weekly doses of chemotherapy during the 5 weeks of radiation, the higher dose of 50.4 Gy (1.8 Gy/fraction ×28 fractions over 5½ weeks) utilized in this study permits for a sixth dose during the additional week of radiation.
