Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

We hypothesize that one-cycle induction chemotherapy may also help to identify chemo-responsive esophageal cancer patients who are highly treatable by definitive CCRT.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We hypothesize that one-cycle induction chemotherapy may also help to identify chemo-responsive esophageal cancer patients who are highly treatable by definitive CCRT.in order to test this hypothesis, we thus propose this phase II clinical study to verify the role of "response to one-cycle induction chemotherapy"in the prediction of pathologic complete response rate to CCRT and tje outcomes for patients with loco-regional esophageal cancer.

One-cycle induction chemotherapy

TP-HDFL, TP-CCRT, Esophagectomy

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

TP-HDFL,TP-CCRT, Esophagectomy

Intervention Type PROCEDURE
