Summary

This study tests whether giving additional chemotherapy after the usual chemoradiation can better control esophageal cancer and reduce the need for surgery. About 60 adults with stage II to IVA esophageal adenocarcinoma will receive chemoradiation followed by more chemotherapy. The main goal is to see if the cancer disappears on biopsy after treatment.
