Additional Consolidative Esophagectomy for the Patients With Oligometastatic Resectable ESCC

Not Applicable

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma; Oligometastatic Disease
• Interventions: Procedure: Esophagectomy

• Registration Number: NCT05951127
• Lead Sponsor: Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences

Brief Summary

At present, there are relatively clear treatment guidelines for colorectal cancer with oligometastases, while the treatment mode for resectable esophageal cancer with oligometastases is not clear and there is a lack of research results in this field. The aim of this study is to provide evidence of the optimal therapy model for the local resectable esophageal cancer with oligometastases ESCC patients, by investigating whether 2-year OS of the patients could benefit from additional local consolidative esophagectomy.

Detailed Description

This study was designed as a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled prospective clinical study. The experimental group (group A) received additional esophagectomy after 3-month systemic treatment, and the control group (group B) received only systemic treatment. 2-year OS, 3-year PFS and OS were observed in the two groups.

   *Oligonucleotides transfer is defined as: there are 3 or less than 3 lesions in single organ(lung, liver, brain or bone), and could be resected, radiofrequency ablation or radiotherapy in 1 radiation fied; Supraclavicular lymph node metastasis is defined as a distant metastases, celiac axis lymph nodes are considered as regional lymph nodes for the patients with lower 1/3 ESCC; Supraclavicular lymph nodes in patients with upper thoracic and cervical esophageal cancer were defined as regional lymph nodes, while abdominal trunk lymph nodes were considered as distant metastases；

2. No new metastatic lesions were found after more than 3 months of systemic treatment, and primary esophageal cancer lesions and regional lymph nodes can be resected R0;

3. No serious internal disease, KPS score ≥90;

4. The evaluation of various organ functions can tolerate surgery, radiotherapy and other treatments;
