About this study

Official title: A Phase III, Randomized, Controlled Study of Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Versus Photodynamic Therapy for Early Esophageal Cancer

The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and Endoscopic submucosal (ESD) dissection in the treatment of early esophageal cancer.

Read the detailed description

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is recommended by the NCCN guidelines as an effective method for the treatment of early esophageal cancer. However, there is no clinical trial data so far on whether its efficacy can be compared with that of standard Endoscopic submucosal (ESD). Our team will conduct a detailed study on it.

Aim: to compare the efficacy and safety of Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and Endoscopic submucosal (ESD) dissection in the treatment of early esophageal cancer.

Methods: This study intends to recruit 46 patients with early esophageal cancer and randomly divide them into two groups: one group to receive ESD and the other group to receive PDT.The efficacy and safety were observed after 2 years of follow-up.

Primary endpoints: The recurrence rates at 3 months, 6 months, and 2 years were compared.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PDTProcedure or surgery

    Also called Photodynamics Therapy

    Drug: (Hematoporphyrin sodium injection) Hematoporphyrin sodium injection (xibofen):2mg/kg I.V.

    Laser irradiation:

    48 hours after the patient input the photosensitizer, the laser irradiation time is 900 seconds, and the output power is 200 watts.

  • ESDProcedure or surgery

    Also called Endoscopic submucosal dissection

    The patients received standard endoscopic submucosal dissection after enrollment.
