Brief Summary

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

Neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery is preferred for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, but the necessity of adjuvant therapy remains controversial. Tumor regression grade reflects the response to neoadjuvant therapy and may predict patient prognosis, yet its role in guiding adjuvant therapy remains unexplored.

Detailed Description

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

We aim to explore the role of TRG and other clinical characteristics in predicting the efficacy of postoperative adjuvant therapy in ESCC patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy. This study Includes patients who underwent R0 esophagectomy for thoracic ESCC after neoadjuvant therapy. Patients will be assessed by TRG and divided into good responders (TRG 0-1) and poor responders (TRG 2-3). The main variable of interest is adjuvant therapy, and the primary outcome is OS, defined as time from diagnosis until death. Cox proportional hazards regression models will be used to calculate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals to assess the impact of various variables on survival time.
