| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
|
Experimental: concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus DC-CIK immunotherapy
patients will receive concurrent chemoradiotherapy plur DC-CIK immunotherapy
|
Other: concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus DC-CIK immunotherapy
Radiotherapy:Patients will be conducted CT simulation, and three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) or Intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)was performed. 1.8-2.0 Gy/fraction, 5 fractions a week, with a total dose of 60-66Gy will be delivered for all patients by 6-MV-X-ray of linear accelerator. Chemotherapy: Patients will be concurrently administered with irradiation every 4 weeks with PT regimen (cis-platinum of 20 mg/m2/d, d2-5; PTX(paclitaxel)of 80mg/m2/d, d1,d8) for 4 cycles.The chemotherapy will be concurrently given with irradiation. DC-CIK Immunotherapy:Mononuclear cells were collected aseptically with blood cell separator composition apheresis 3 days before concurrent chemoradiation, and cultured DC-CIK cells for 10 days. Cells were infused back to the patients in 3 times between the Chemoradiation intermittent period. |

Eligibility| Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Senior) |
| Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
| Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- cytologically or histologically confirmed locally advanced esophageal carcinoma
- Age: > 18
- Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70
- At least one measurable tumor lesions according to the RECIST criteria.
- Normal functions of heart, lung, liver, kidney and bone marrow
- Blood exams qualified for chemotherapy, which included hemoglobulin ≥9 g/dl, neutrophil ≥1.5×109/L and platelet (PLT) ≥100×109/L, creatinine ≤1.5 UNL
- Informed consent signed
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with metastatic disease in the central nervous system (CNS).
- Patients who are pregnant or nursing.
- Patients with poor bone marrow, liver and kidney functions, which would make chemotherapy intolerable
- Patients with contraindication for irradiation: complete obstruction of esophagus, deep esophageal ulcer, fistula to mediastinum, or haematemesis
- coexisted morbidities that investigators believed not suitable for chemoradiation
