About this trial
200 patients with advanced esophageal cancer who received PD-1 monoclonal antibody treatment would be enrolled in this study. Changes in peripheral blood immune cells before and after treatment would be recorded and used for machine learning to establish a prediction model for the efficacy of PD-1 monoclonal antibody treatment.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Patients with metastatic advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (stage IV) confirmed by histology or cytology who are ready to receive PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with TP chemotherapy regimen.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score between 0 and 2.
Have measurable lesions.
Expected survival > 3 months.
Disqualifiers
Have active, or have had an autoimmune disease that is likely to recur (eg, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune thyroid disease, vasculitis, psoriasis, etc.) or at risk (e.g., organ transplant recipients requiring immunosuppressive therapy).
Subjects who need to receive glucocorticoid (prednisone > 10 mg/day or equivalent dose of other similar drugs) or other immunosuppressive therapy due to certain conditions within 14 days prior to study drug administration.
Major surgery, or radical radiation therapy, or palliative radiation therapy within the previous 14 days, or radiopharmaceuticals (strontium, samarium, etc.) within 56 days before starting study treatment.
Received systemic anti-tumor therapy, including immunotherapy, biological therapy (tumor vaccines, cytokines, or growth factors to control cancer), etc. 14 days before starting study treatment.
