A Study of Ifinatamab Deruxtecan for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

This study is testing a drug called ifinatamab deruxtecan for people with advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), a type of cancer in the esophagus. You might be able to join if your cancer has progressed after receiving platinum-based chemotherapy and an immune checkpoint inhibitor (a type of drug that helps your immune system fight cancer). Researchers want to see if ifinatamab deruxtecan helps people live longer compared to standard chemotherapy options like docetaxel, paclitaxel, or irinotecan hydrochloride. The study aims to enroll about 510 participants.
