Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • overall survival rate

    survival time was measured from the date of study enrollment to the date of death or last follow-up

    one year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • acute and late toxicities

    1 year

Study Arms (1)

high dose radiochemotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

A total dose of 86 Gy to residual metabolic disease with concurrent chemotherapy

Radiation: high dose radiation therapy with concurrent chemotherapy

Interventions

standard dose of 50 Gy concurrent weekly with paclitaxel (45 mg/m2) and carboplatin (area under curve 1.5 ), immediately followed by hyperfractionated radiotherapy boost of 36 Gy in 30 fractions of 1.2 Gy to residual metabolic disease as defined by PET/CT

high dose radiochemotherapy

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients must have FDG-avid and histologically or cytologically proven esophageal cancer.
  • Patients must be deemed unresectable disease or patient is not deemed operable due to medical reasons.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2 No prior radiation to the thorax that would overlap with the current treatment field.
  • Patients with nodal involvement are eligible
  • Adequate bone marrow, renal and hepatic functions as assessed by the following: Hemoglobin \>/= 10.0 g/dl, Platelet count \>/= 1 00,000/ mm\^3,absolute granulocyte count (AGC) ≥2 × 10\^9 cells/L,bilirubin and Aspartate transaminase ≤1.5 ×upper limit of normal (ULN), Creatinine \</ =1 .5 times ULN.
  • A signed informed consent must be obtained prior to therapy.
  • No prior radiation to the thorax that would overlap with the current treatment field.
  • Induction chemotherapy is allowed.

You may not qualify if:

  • The presence of a fistula.
  • Prior radiotherapy that would overlap the radiation fields.
  • gastroesophageal junction cancer or the lower third esophageal cancer invading the gastric wall.
  • Uncontrolled concurrent illness including, but not limited to: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease(COPD) exacerbation or other respiratory illness, serious uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure (CHF),unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled hypertension,or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with the study requirements.
  • Known hypersensitivity to paclitaxel.
  • Any other condition or circumstance that would, in the opinion of the Investigator, make the patient unsuitable for participation in the study.
  • Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
  • Conditions precluding medical follow-up and protocol compliance
