研究概览
简要总结
Aim of the study is to assess efficacy of a short course radiation treatment in patients with symptomatic esophageal malignant lesions
详细描述
Standard treatment for esophageal lesions (3000 cGy in 10 daily fractions of 300 cGy each) is compared with experimental treatment (2000 cGy in 4 fractions of 500 cGy twice a day) to demonstrate non-inferiority of this scheme

standard treatment
patients in this group are treated with 3000 cGy in 10 daily fraction

patients in this group are treated with 2000 cGy in 4 fractions administered twice a day (at least 6-8 hours interval)
干预措施: short course treatment (Radiation)
结局指标
主要结局
Efficacy of palliation using the short course scheme compared with the standard scheme: Likert scale
时间窗: 3 months
reduction of initial symptoms after radiotherapy, assessed with Likert scale (dysphagia, odynophagia, regurgitation, chest-back pain are evaluated as none-mild-moderate-severe)
次要结局
- late toxicity in the two treatment groups(12 months)
- acute toxicity in the two treatment groups(3 months)
- Quality of Life (QoL): EORTC questionnaire C15-PAL(12 months)
