Summary
This study tests a shorter, more intense radiation schedule combined with chemotherapy for people with locally advanced esophageal cancer. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and feasible, and to reduce side effects like low white blood cell counts. About 60 adults will receive 20 radiation sessions over 4 weeks instead of the usual 28 sessions over 5.5 weeks.
