Toripalimab as Monotherapy for Patients With Small Cell Carcinoma of Esophagus Who Failed Chemotherapy

Study Description
Brief Summary:
To evaluate the anti-tumor activity, safety and tolerance of toripalimab as monotherapy for patients with small cell esophageal cancer (SCCE), and to explore the potential biomarkers for this treatment.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Small Cell Carcinoma of Esophagus Advanced Cancer Drug: Toripalimab Phase 2

Detailed Description:
For the first time in the world, the investigators revealed the genomic characteristics of SCCE and constructed a complete genomic profile of SCCE. The analysis of transcriptome data showed that the number of effector T cells in SCCE immune microenvironment was significantly higher than that of other cancers, and NK cells were relatively high. Macrophages in SCCE mainly showed M2-like phenotype and maintained at a relatively high level, suggesting the possibility of immunotherapy in SCCE treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to clarify the efficacy of PD-1 antibody in the treatment of patients with SCCE who failed chemotherapy, so as to provide a basis for further large-scale clinical research.
