NCT ID NCT07322627

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a specific gene, ALDH2, which helps break down alcohol, is linked to how long people with esophageal cancer live. Researchers will follow 700 patients for up to 12.5 years to see if gene variations affect survival. The goal is to better understand why some patients do better than others.
