Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, single center, open label, single arm clinical study. Select resectable locally advanced (cT3-4aN0M0, cT1-3N1-2M0, cII/III stage) esophageal cancer with pathological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma for inclusion, receive pembrolizumab combined with platinum containing dual drug (albumin paclitaxel+carboplatin) treatment for 2 courses, and undergo surgery. After surgery, continue pembrolizumab immunotherapy. Using pCR as the main endpoint of the study

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, single center, open label, single arm Phase II clinical study. Patients with locally resectable advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were selected for inclusion in the study, who received a 2-course neoadjuvant treatment with pembrolizumab combined with platinum containing dual drugs. After evaluation, surgery was performed. The efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab combined with chemotherapy neoadjuvant therapy for resectable locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma were observed, with pCR and MPR as the main research endpoints.
