Summary

This study looked at 200 people with advanced esophageal cancer to compare two treatments before surgery: immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy, versus chemotherapy plus radiation. Both treatments led to similar long-term survival rates. The immunotherapy combo may offer extra benefits for some patients, but more research is needed.
