Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to compare raltitrexed/oxaliplatin plus radiotherapy versus radiotherapy in subjects with inoperable esophageal cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

108 patients were randomized to receive Raltitrexed/Oxaliplatin Plus Radiotherapy (Raltitrexed 2.5mg/㎡ d1,Oxaliplatin 100mg/㎡ d1,q21d Plus Radiotherapy 2.0Gy/day, 5 times/week,6 weeks.)or Radiotherapy ( Radiotherapy 2.0Gy/day, 5 times/week,6 weeks) in subjects with Inoperable esophageal cancer. All patients will receive therapy of six weeks unless disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients were evaluated every 3 months .Progression-Free-Survival was the primary endpoint. Response Rate, Overall survival, toxicity of the therapy are other second endpoint.
