Durvalumab, an Anti-PDLI Antibody, and Tremelimumab, an Anti-CTLA4 Antibody, and Chemoradiation Before Surgery for Esophageal Cancer (NCT02962063)
Phase Ib/II Study of Induction Chemotherapy and Durvalumab (MEDI4736) and Tremelimumab With Chemoradiation for Esophageal and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of adding a new drug, durvalumab (also called MEDI4736), to chemoradiation with either FOLFOX/Capeox or carboplatin and paclitaxel, following initial chemotherapy with FOLFOX. The investigators want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, this combination has on the patient and cancer.
