Sponsor's own description

The investigators conducted a phase II, prospective, two-arm clinical study to explore the efficacy of Camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy versus chemoradiotherapy for conversion therapy of potentially resectable advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. This study will provide more evidence for conversion treatment of initially unresectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and contribute to the development of treatment guidelines for esophageal cancer.
