In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The treatment efficacy for stage IVb esophageal cancer has been improved through chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy recently. On this basis, the investigators intend to conduct a prospective, multicenter phase III clinical trial to assess whether radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy and immunotherapy could further improve the survival of patients with metastatic esophageal cancer. Accompanied tissue samples, blood samples and urine samples will be analyzed by molecular biological detection (Including Whole Exome Sequencing and proteomics) to explore potential biomarkers for predicting outcomes, efficacy and toxicity.
