Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with pathologically diagnosed ESCC who have undergone radical resection and require adjuvant therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with concurrent malignancies or those who have received other adjuvant therapies after surgery may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness and safety of Anlotinib Hydrochloride Capsules combined with TQB2450 Injection as postoperative adjuvant therapy for patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma (ESCC). It is an open-label, single-arm Phase II trial focusing on disease-free survival (DFS) as the primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints include overall survival rates and safety assessments based on adverse events. The study aims to provide insights into the potential benefits of this combination therapy for patients who have undergone radical resection of ESCC.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could improve disease-free survival and overall outcomes for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is exploratory, similar combination therapies have shown promise in other cancers, suggesting potential for success.
