Perioperative outcomes of neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus camrelizumab versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus tislelizumab for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer: a real-world retrospective study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: While neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy shows promise for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), optimal regimen selection remains challenging. This study compares perioperative outcomes between camrelizumab- and tislelizumab-based neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy in ESCC. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 209 clinical stage II-IVA ESCC patients treated at Hebei Medical University Fourth Hospital (October 2020-December 2023) who underwent neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (camrelizumab, n=119; tislelizumab, n=90) followed by esophagectomy. Results: Comparable pathological responses were observed between groups: pathological complete response (31.1% vs 30.3%, P=1.00), major pathological response (44.4% vs 42.9%, P=0.89), and pathological downstaging (67.8% vs 73.9%, P=0.36). Perioperative complication rates, including hematologic toxicities, immune-related adverse events, and surgical complications, were similar (all P>0.05). The tislelizumab group demonstrated significantly lower unplanned ICU transfer rates (P=0.04), while operative parameters (duration, blood loss, R0 resection) showed no differences. Conclusion: Tislelizumab-based chemoimmunotherapy demonstrates comparable efficacy and safety to camrelizumab-based regimens, potentially representing a viable neoadjuvant option for locally advanced ESCC.
