Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior high-dose radiotherapy to the thorax or abdomen
  • history or concurrent malignancy as judged by the treating physician. This is only an exclusion criterion if the other malignancy is considered the oncological potentially leading cause of death compared to the esophageal cancer.

Other

  • Evidence of distant metastases (cM1)
  • Primary tumor cT4b

Who the study is looking for

  • patients with squamous cell, undifferentiated or adenocarcinoma of the esophagus, UICC stage II-IVA (maximum T4a)
  • ECOG performace status 0-2
  • Complete clinical staging, including, esophagogastroscopy, EUS, CT neck/thorax/abdomen and adequate pulmonary function.
  • Adequate hematological, renal, hepatic and pulmonary functions defined as:
    • granulocytes ≥ 1.5 x 109/l platelets ≥ 100 x 109/l total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x upper normal limit creatinine ≤ 120 μmol/L FEV1 ≥ 1.5 L
  • Written, voluntary informed consent
  • Willingness to perform effective contraceptive practices during treatment for patients with childbearing potential
