e16033 Background: Camrelizumab has been approved as a standard therapy in the second-line treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of camrelizumab combined with commonly used neoadjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel and platinum) in neoadjuvant treatment of ESCC. Methods: In this single-arm, phase Ⅱ study, patients with advanced ESCC who were expected to receive neoadjuvant therapy followed by radical surgery were recruited. The patients received 2-4 cycles of camrelizumab (200mg, iv, q3w) in combination with paclitaxel (155mg/m2, iv, q3w) and nedaplatin (80mg/m2, iv, q3w) as neoadjuvant therapy, and the therapeutic effects were determined every 2 cycles. The radical surgery was performed on patients whose tumors were evaluated as resectable. The primary endpoint was pCR, and the secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). Results: From May 2020 to January 2021, 24 patients with a median age of 60.5 years (50-73) were enrolled. Among them, 21 patients were available for efficacy analysis, of which 1 achieved complete response (CR), 7 achieved partial response (PR), and 13 had stable disease (SD). The ORR was 38.1% and DCR was 100%. The tumor in 10 patients shrank significantly after neoadjuvant therapy and these patients preferred radiotherapy instead of surgery as the radical therapeutic method. 2 patients abandoned surgery because of personal reasons. 2 patients were in the process of neoadjuvant therapy and had not undergone surgery yet. The remaining 7 patients underwent radical surgery and 4 patients (57.14%) achieved pCR (pT0N0M0). The main treatment-related grade 3/4 adverse event (AE) was neutropenia (1/21). All the AEs were manageable. The average intraoperative blood loss was 221mL and the average hospitalization time after operation was 12.7 days (range 8-19 days). No anastomotic leakage and treatment-related death occurred. Conclusions: Camrelizumab in combination with paclitaxel and platinum as a neoadjuvant therapy was well tolerated. The pCR rate of 57.14% was higher than the expected 40%. This encouraging result promoted us to continue this phase Ⅱ study. Clinical trial information: ChiCTR2000033761.

Abstract Background:The effect of long term prediagnostic aspirin intake on the prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is unclear. We aimed to reveal the effect of long term prediagnostic aspirin intake on survival of ESCC patients receiving radical surgery. Methods:147 eligible ESCC patients who received radical surgery for primary treatment were enrolled in this study. Patients who had used aspirin regularly for more than 3 months before diagnose were classified as aspirin group and patients who had never used aspirin before diagnose and surgery were served as non-aspirin group. The recurrence rate, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between the two groups to verify the effect of aspirin. Results:Patients were clarified into aspirin group (n=57) and non-aspirin group (n=90). The DFS and OS were both significantly shorter in aspirin group than non-aspirin group (DFS: 23.1±18.0 months vs. 30.9±19.8 months, P=0.018; OS: 29.8±17.4 months vs. 35.2±18.2 months, P=0.082). Survival analysis revealed that OS decreased in aspirin group than in non-aspirin group, however, it did not reach significance (P=0.074). DFS decreased significantly in aspirin group than non-aspirin group in both univariate (P=0.007) and multivariate (P=0.002) survival analysis. Subgroup analysis revealed that in pTNM stage 2, OS and DFS were reduced in non-aspirin group compared with aspirin group (P=0.048 and P=0.003, respectively), while no difference was found in stage 3.Conclusions:Long term prediagnostic aspirin intake may cause poor DFS in ESCC patients receiving radical surgery, especially for those in pTNM stage 2.

Recurrence Patterns

PurposeThis study aimed to analyze the recurrence patterns of thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) after radical surgery, and to understand its implication in the clinical target volume (CTV) design of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) in patients with ESCC.Methods and materialsA total of 428 recurrent ESCC patients after radical surgery between 2014 and 2018 were included in this study. Recurrence patterns, especially anastomotic and regional lymph node recurrence (LNR), were analyzed. A T-shaped CTV were proposed for PORT and were evaluated whether it could cover most of regional LNR.ResultsThese patients all experienced anastomotic and/or regional LNR. Among the 428 patients, 27 cases (6.3%) had anastomotic recurrence only, and184 cases (43.0%) had LNR only. Those sites with an LNR rate higher than 15% in upper thoracic ESCC were as follows: No.101, No.104R, No.104L, No.106recR, No.106recL, No.106pre, No.106tb, No.107, and No. 109. Those with middle thoracic ESCC were as follows: No.104R, No.104L, 106recR, No.106recL, No.106pre, No.106tb, and No.107. Lastly, individuals with lower thoracic ESCC were as follows: No.104L, 106recR, No.106recL, No. 106pre, No. 106tb, No.107, and abdominal No. 3. The proportion of LNR not included in the proposed T-shaped CTV was 12.5% (1/8), 4.7% (6/128), and 10.4% (5/48) in the upper, middle, and lower thoracic segments, respectively.ConclusionsLNR was the most common type of local-regional recurrence in patients after radical surgery. Supraclavicular, superior and middle mediastinal lymph nodes had the highest recurrence rate, the rate of LNR which was outside T-shaped PORT CTV we proposed was less than 15%.
