Brief Summary

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

To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of S-1 with concurrent radiotherapy in older patients with esophageal cancer.

Detailed Description

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

Older patients with esophageal cancer have been correlated with poor prognosis because of having little chance to receive aggressive local therapy, including concurrent chemoradiotherapy. In this phase II trial, the efficacy and toxicity of S-1 with concurrent radiotherapy will be investigated in this setting.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Radiotherapy and S-1 arm

Radiotherapy will be delivered with a daily fraction of 1.8 Gy to a total dose of 50.4 Gy. Preplanned concurrent S-1 (70mg/m²/day) will be administered on Day 1 for 14 days, every 3 weeks. After dCRT, maintenance S-1 will be given up to two cycles.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

S-1

Intervention Type DRUG

S-1 will be administered orally twice daily for 14 days at a dose of 70 mg/m2/day with concurrent radiotherapy for 2 cycles. Patients who showed a response greater than that of stable disease underwent additional S-1 until disease progression, serious adverse events, or patient refusal up to four cycles.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Cytologically or histologically confirmed esophageal carcinoma;
2. ECOG performance status: 0-1;
3. No treatments prior to enrollment;
4. At least one measurable lesion on CT, MRI or esophageal barium exam;
5. Normal functions of heart, lung, liver, kidney and bone marrow;
6. Blood exams qualified for chemotherapy, which included hemoglobulin ≥9 g/dl, neutrophil ≥1.5×109/L and platelet (PLT) ≥100×109/L, creatinine ≤1.5 UNL;
7. Informed consent signed.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Prior treatments of chemotherapy or irradiation;
2. Poor bone marrow, liver and kidney functions, which would make chemotherapy intolerable;
3. Contraindication for irradiation: complete obstruction of esophagus, deep esophageal ulcer, fistula to mediastinum, or haematemesis;
4. Participating in other clinical trials;
5. Clinically significant and uncontrolled major medical conditions including but not limited to: active uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, Unstable angina pectoris or cardiac arrhythmia, psychiatric illness/ social situation that would limit compliance with study requirements; any medical condition, which in the opinion of the study investigator places the subject at an unacceptably high risk for toxicities;
6. The subject has had another active malignancy within the past five years except for cervical cancer in site, in situ carcinoma of the bladder or non-melanoma carcinoma of the skin.
