About this trial

The effect of neo-adjuvant immunochemotherapy on survival of patients with thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinomas remains unknown. One of our objectives is to evaluate whether the neo-adjuvant immunochemotherapy Toripalimab (JS001) with cisplatin and paclitaxel followed by right thoracic approach esophagectomy with total 2-field lymph node dissection improves the overall survival of thoracic esophageal cancer patients versus neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.
