About

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerance and efficacy of Utidelone combined with Anlotinib in patients with Advanced or Recurrent Esophageal Carcinoma who failed Standard first line therapy.

Full description

Patients with advanced or recurrent esophageal carcinoma who failed standard first-line therapy have a low survival prognosis. There are few treatment options available and the clinical need is great.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Utidelone combined with Anlotinib in patients with Advanced or Recurrent Esophageal Carcinoma who fail first line therapy.

The trial is a single arm design. Patient in the treatment group will accept Utidelone at 30 mg/m2/d administered intravenously on days 1-5 and Anlotinib 8mg/d administered orally on days 1-14, 21 days as one cycle.

Before the use of utidelone, all patients will accept pretreatment: diphenhydramine 40 mg by intramuscular injection or oral administration, and dexamethasone10 mg and cimetidine 300 mg by intravenous injection 30 minutes prior to Utidelone iv drip at the first day of each cycle.

Tumor assessments will be performed at baseline and every 6 weeks (±7 days) after enrollment and will continue until disease progression according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. For patients with no disease progression, tumor evaluation will continue regardless of treatment discontinuation unless the patient begins new antitumor therapy or withdraws informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

Patients who have received antitumor therapy, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biologic therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or antitumor herbal therapy, within 4 weeks. With the exception of the following:
- Nitrosoureas or mitomycin C within 6 weeks prior to the first use of the study drug;
- Oral fluorouracil and small molecule targeted drugs for 2 weeks prior to the first use of the study drug or within the drug's 5 half-life (whichever is longer);
- Chinese medicines with antitumor indications within 2 weeks before the first use of the study drug.

Patients who are pregnant (positive result from the pregnancy test) or lactating.
Patients whose prior adverse reactions to anti-tumor therapy have not recovered to CTCAE 5.0 grade ≤1 (except for toxicity such as alopecia which poses no safety risk in the judgment of the investigator).
