Which paclitaxel-based regimen, among fluorouracil, cisplatin, and carboplatin, provides the best prognosis with minimum adverse events for patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma? In this randomized clinical trial of 321 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated in 11 cancer centers in China, the 3-year overall survival rates were 57.2% in the fluorouracil group, 60.1% in the cisplatin group, and 56.5% in the carboplatin group, respectively. The paclitaxel plus fluorouracil regimen did not show overall survival superiority over paclitaxel regimens with cisplatin or carboplatin in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who are in chemoradiation therapy. Because different regimens may lead to different adverse effects in patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer, these results suggest that specialists have more choices in clinical practice and for future research that can account for the needs of patients, without sacrificing odds of survival. This randomized clinical trial compares 3-year overall survival rates and adverse events for chemoradiotherapy using paclitaxel in combination with fluorouracil, cisplatin, or carboplatin among patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Multiple paclitaxel-based regimens are widely used in chemoradiation therapy against esophageal cancer, including regimens combining paclitaxel with fluorouracil, cisplatin, and carboplatin. However, which among these 3 regimens provides the best prognosis with minimum adverse events is still unknown. To compare the efficacy and adverse events of fluorouracil, cisplatin, and carboplatin in definitive chemoradiotherapy in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). This randomized clinical trial of patients with ESCC was conducted in 11 treatment centers in China. Eligible patients were aged 18 to 75 years and had histologically confirmed ESCC stages IIa to IVa with no prior treatment, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2 or lower, and adequate organ functions. The study was conducted between July 2015 and February 2018, and the cutoff date for data analysis was August 31, 2020. Patients with locally advanced ESCC were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to groups combining paclitaxel treatment with fluorouracil, cisplatin, or carboplatin. Patients in the cisplatin group were treated with 2 cycles of concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by 2 cycles of consolidation chemotherapy with monthly paclitaxel plus cisplatin. For the fluorouracil group, patients were administered 6 cycles of weekly paclitaxel plus fluorouracil in concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by 2 cycles of monthly paclitaxel plus fluorouracil in consolidation chemotherapy. Patients in the carboplatin group were treated with 6 cycles of weekly paclitaxel plus carboplatin in concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by 2 cycles of monthly paclitaxel plus carboplatin in consolidation chemotherapy. All patients received radiotherapy of 61.2 Gy delivered in 34 fractions. The primary end point was overall survival (OS). The secondary end points were progression-free survival and adverse events. Overall, 321 patients (median [IQR] age, 64 years [59-69 years]; 248 [77.3%] men) with ESCC from 11 centers were randomized into fluorouracil, cisplatin, or carboplatin groups between July 2015 and February 2018. Over a median (IQR) follow-up time of surviving patients of 46.0 months (36.6-53.0 months), the 3-year OS rates were 57.2% in the fluorouracil group, 60.1% in the cisplatin group, and 56.5% in the carboplatin group, respectively (fluorouracil vs cisplatin: HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.71-1.60; P = .77; fluorouracil vs carboplatin: HR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.63-1.40; P = .77). The cisplatin group had significantly higher incidences of acute grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (69 events [60.8%] vs 19 [17.8%] for fluorouracil and 37 [34.6%] carboplatin; P < .001), thrombocytopenia (14 events [13.1%] vs 4 [3.7%] for fluorouracil and 5 [4.7%] for carboplatin; P = .01), anemia (50 events above grade 2 [46.7%] vs 25 [23.4%] for fluorouracil and 37 [34.6%] for carboplatin; P = .35), fatigue (11 events [10.3%] vs 2 [1.9%] for fluorouracil and 1 [0.9%] carboplatin; P = .007), and vomiting (17 events above grade 2 [15.9%] vs 3 [2.8%] for fluorouracil and 5 [4.7%] for carboplatin; P < .001) than the other 2 groups. In this randomized clinical trial, paclitaxel plus fluorouracil did not show OS superiority over paclitaxel plus cisplatin or paclitaxel plus carboplatin regimens in definitive chemoradiation in patients with locally advanced ESCC. Higher rates of hematologic and gastrointestinal toxic effects were reported in the cisplatin group compared with those in the fluorouracil or carboplatin groups.
