Neoadjuvant Camrelizumab With Palbociclib for Resectable Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinomas

The purpose of this study is to explore the safety and feasibility of anti-programmed cell death 1(PD-1) immunotherapy, Camrelizumab, combined with cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 blockade, Palbociclib, as a new neoadjuvant treatment regimen for patients with resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
