Inhaled or topical steroids and adrenal replacement doses >10 mg daily prednisone equivalents are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune disease. Note: Patients who have received acute, low-dose, systemic immunosuppressant medications (e.g., a one-time dose of dexamethasone for nausea) may be enrolled into the study after approval of the Medical Contact. Subjects are permitted the use of topical, ocular, intra- articular, intranasal, and inhalational corticosteroids (with minimal systemic absorption). Adrenal replacement steroid doses including doses >10 mg daily prednisone is permitted.

| Primary | Complete pathological response (cPRR) rate | Each center will assess the pathologic response with a centralized center review in case of cPRR and the analysis will be in intention-to-treat (ITT). cPRR will be defined as complete tumor disappearance of tumor in the low esophagus or the stomach (from 1/3 inferior of the esophagus to pylorus) after surgery anatomopathologic examination according to mandard scale. Surgery will be performed within 5 weeks +\- 1 week after the last cycle (cycle 6) of neoadjuvant therapy |
time point when the tumor is examined after the surgery (up to 30 months) | |
| Secondary | Disease-free survival (DFS) | DFS is defined as the time from the date of starting treatment to local recurrence and/or metastases or death irrespective of cause and censored at the date of last contact. | Up to 36 months | |
| Secondary | Overall Survival (OS) | OS is defined as the time between the date of the first dose of study treatment and the death date. Patients alive at last report will be considered censored at the endpoint. Alive patients will be censored at the last date known to be alive, either during study treatment period or during follow-up period. | Up to 36 months | |
| Secondary | Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events | Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI-CTCAE] v5.0 | Patients will be assessed for AEs throughout the study at every visit during treatment and at 3-month follow-up visit (3 months after treatment ends). Investigators using the NCI-CTCAE version 5.0 will grade the severity of AEs. | |
| Secondary | Analyze MSI status | Confirmation of MSI and/or dMMR has to be confirmed retrospectively on archival or fresh tumor FFPET block from the primary tumor obtained at the time of the initial diagnosis | up to 36 months | |
| Secondary | Quantification of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells as biomarker of anti-PD1/PDL1 immunotherapy in dMMR tumors | Quantification of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells as biomarker of anti-PD1/PDL1 immunotherapy in blood of dMMR tumors. | Blood samples at baseline, C3D1 and C6D1 of neoadjuvant therapy - cycle every 2 weeks, after surgery at C1 D1(first cycle of adjuvant treatment) and at the end of treatment visit (28 days after the last dose of treatment (up to 36 months) | |
| Secondary | Number of Species of bacteria and yeast composition | To investigate the microbiota composition changes during neoadjuvant therapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab and its relation to response and/or chemotoxicity. Number of Species of bacteria and yeast will be quantitfy and identify. Number of Change of composition will be investigate based on baseline samples compared to 12 weeks sample. DNA will be extracted from fecal samples taken prior to therapy and on-treatment (week 12). A gene sequencing approach will be utilized to survey microbial species in the gut in order to define microbiota as a function of the efficacy and safety. |
