- W3134540982 abstract "<sec><b>Objective</b>To investigate the safety and efficacy of nimotuzumab combined with radiotherapy for elderly patients with non-resectable esophageal carcinoma (EC).</sec><sec><b>Methods</b>Eligible patients were aged 70 years or older and had treatment-naïve, histologically proven inoperable locally advanced EC. Enrolled patients received radiotherapy with a total dose of 50−60 Gy in 25−30 fractions, concurrent with weekly infusion of nimotuzumab. The primary end point was the rate of more than grade 3 toxicities.</sec><sec><b>Results</b>From June 2011 to July 2016, 46 patients with stage II−IV EC with a median age of 76.5 years were enrolled. There were 10, 28 and 8 patients with stage II, III and IV disease, respectively. The common acute toxicities included esophagitis (grade 1−2, 75.4%; grade 3, 8.7%), pneumonitis (grade 1, 4.3%; grade 2, 6.5%; grade 3, 2.2%), leukopenia (grade 1−2, 60.9%; grade 3−4, 4.4%), gastrointestinal reaction (grade 1−2, 17.3%; grade 3, 2.2%), thrombocytopenia (grade 1−2, 21.7%; grade 3, 2.2%), and radiothermitis (grade 1−2, 39.2%). The incidence of grade 3−4 adverse effects was 17.4%. No grade 5 toxicities were observed. Clinical complete response, partial response, stable disease, and progressive disease were observed in 1 (2.2%), 31 (67.4%), 12 (26.1%), and 2 (4.3%) patients, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 17 and 10 months, respectively. The 2-, 3-, and 5-year OS and PFS rates were 30.4%, 21.7%, 19.6%, and 26.1%, 19.6%, 19.6%, respectively.</sec><sec><b>Conclusions</b>Nimotuzumab combined with radiotherapy is a safe and effective therapy for elderly patients who are not surgical candidates. Further studies are warranted to confirm its therapeutic effects in elderly EC patients.</sec>" @default.
