First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study looks at two different treatments for people with a type of esophageal cancer that shrank after initial drug therapy. Half the participants will have surgery to remove the tumor, while the other half will get radiation and more chemo instead. The goal is to see if avoiding surgery is just as effective and helps preserve the esophagus. All participants will continue on a maintenance drug for up to a year.
