A Trial of Chemotherapy Before and After Surgery for Stage II,III Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

September 20, 2016 updated by: Japan Clinical Oncology Group

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Chemotherapy With 5FU and Cisplatin Before and After Surgery for Stage II,III Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Thoracic Esophagus:JCOG9907

To determine whether chemotherapy before surgery makes better outcome than chemotherapy after surgery in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The previous study JCOG9204 showed that postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin and fluorouracil has a detectable preventive effect on relapse in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma compared with surgery alone.(J Clin Oncol 2003;21:4592-4596) Therefore the standard treatment for stage II and III esophageal cancer is adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery.
