About this trial

This study is a phase III, multicenter, prospective randomized controlled clinical study comparing the efficacy of non-surgical esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with radical chemoradiotherapy and radical chemoradiotherapy combined with consolidation chemotherapy. The survival time and side effects of patients were observed and compared.
