Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of compare the efficacy and safety of PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy（treatment group） with chemoradiotherapy（control group） in neoadjuvant treatment of resectable thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, open-label, phase II study of PD-1 inhibitor combined With neoadjuvant chemotherapy versus neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in subjects With resectable locally advanced thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The patients will be divided into two groups(1:1). In the treatment group, PD-1 inhibitor ,albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin will be given every 3 weeks for 2-4 cycles as neoadjuvant therapy. In the control gourp, albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin will be given every 3 weeks for 2 cycles as neoadjuvant therapy.

Conditions
