Clinical Trial Summary

An open-label, single-centre, non-randomized, Phase II trial in patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma. This study aims to show that delivering hypofractionated neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy is is equally effective as conventionally fractionated neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy.


Clinical Trial Description

Patients with carcinoma of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction who are suitable for curative intent trimodality therapy will receive carboplatin (AUC 2) and paclitaxel (50 mg/m2) intravenously weekly for 5 weeks. External beam RT in 5 fractions over 1 week will be delivered any time between week 3-5 of chemotherapy. Ideally patients should get radiotherapy during week 3 of chemotherapy but delivery during week 4-5 is permissible with documentation of the minor deviation. RT must start within 30 calendar days of signing the informed consent form. While restaging imaging is done as per institutional guidelines, ideally patients should get a PET/CT 6 weeks post chemoradiotherapy. Patient will then go for esophagectomy 6-12 weeks after the completion of chemoradiotherapy, but ideally at 6-8 weeks post chemoradiotherapy. Patients will be assessed for acute toxicity weekly during neoadjuvant therapy and then biweekly until esophagectomy. One month after surgery, patient will have a final clinical follow up with the radiation oncologist and review any post-operative complications. ;
