Tislelizumab is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Also referred to as nab-paclitaxel, Cisplatin.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
