The Effect of Prophylactic TPO Combined with BMS-IMRT to Esophageal Cancer Patients

Summary

The goal of this interventional study is to explore the protective effect of prophylactic TPO combined with bone marrow sparing (BMS)-IMRT in patients with esophageal cancer undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The main purpose is to reduce the incidence of all grades of thrombocytopenia from 35% to less than 10% by the intervention of study. Participants will initiate concurrent chemoradiotherapy within 2 weeks after enrollment,and they will receive subcutaneous injection of recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) 15000U once a week during the radiotherapy.
