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: 80 advanced ESCC patients who failed to the chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy (1 or 2 line) will be randomized to two arms: arm A and arm B. In arm A, 40 patients will receive coffeic acid treatment: 100-200mg, tid, po, 2 weeks treated then 1 week black interval(weight \>50kg, 200mg per time, weight \< or =50kg, 100mg per time; in arm B, 40 patients will receive the placebo tablets. 1 years follow-up for all patients in this trial. Patients in both arms can receive any other ways of anti cancer therapy in the same time.
