Stage IV Esophageal Cancer Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase II Study of Arsenic Trioxide (NSC 706363) in Patients With Advanced Adenocarcinoma of the Esophagus or Gastroesophageal Junction
This phase II trial is studying how well arsenic trioxide works in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable cancer of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction. Drugs used in chemotherapy such as arsenic trioxide use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die
