Abstract
Objective: This research aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab (PBL) combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel (ab-Pac) and nedaplatin (NDP) for advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: A total of 47 ESCC patients were administered PBL or NDP on day 1 and ab-Pac on days 1 and 8, every 21days for one cycle. Tumor and toxicities were evaluated every two cycles and every cycle, respectively. Results: The objective response rate was 68.1% and the disease control rate was 100%. The median follow-up was 16.7months; median progression-free and overall survival were 12.6 and 19.9months, respectively. Conclusion: The combination of PBL with ab-Pac and NDP proved to be an effective and safe treatment regimen for advanced ESCC.
