Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Aim: to investigate the efficiency and safety of caffeic acid in chinese advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer.
Methods: 240 advanced ESCC patients will be randomized to two arms: Arm A (receiving coffeic acid treatment) or Arm B (placebo group). In Arm A, patients will receive coffeic acid treatment: 300mg, tid, po, continue to progress disease (PD) or die or the intolerant adverse events; in Arm B, the same shape placebo tablets will be deliveried to patients. 1 years follow-up for both groups patients.Patients in both arms can receive any other ways of anti cancer therapy in the same time.
