Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Safety of active surveillance (including delayed surgery), measured by the number of patients with adverse events

    Including: * Complications from OGD with bite-on-bite biopsies, EUS-FNA and PET-CT * Unresectable or incurable (T4b or R2) regrowth * Microscopically non-radical (R1) resection * Postoperative mortality (90 day- or in-hospital mortality) * Postoperative hospital stay of \>60 days * Postoperative complications, defined by the Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group (ECCG) * Development of distant metastases

    after the procedure/surgery and at least up to 2 years

Secondary Outcomes (15)

  • Rate of distant and locoregional relapse

    at least up to 2 years

  • Progression-free survival (PFS)

    From cCR until the date of first documented disease progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed at least up to 2 years

  • Overall survival (OS)

    From cCR until the date of death from any cause, assessed at least up to 2 years

  • The proportion of patients in the active surveillance strategy that opted for decision counseling

    at least up to 2 years

  • The proportion of patients that opted for decision counselling as well as the proportion of patients who switched from preferring active surveillance to preferring immediate surgery or vice versa.

    at least up to 2 years

  • +10 more secondary outcomes

Interventions

Patients will undergo two clinical response evaluations (CREs) after nCRT. During CRE-1 (5-6 weeks) patients will undergo oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD) with bite-on-bite biopsies. During CRE-2 (10-12 weeks) patients will undergo positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET-CT), endoscopy with bite-on-bite biopsies and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) plus fine-needle aspiration (FNA). If cancer is detected, surgery will be performed. Patients with cCR are eligible for active surveillance where regular CREs are performed to detect regrowth of cancer. Delayed oesophagectomy will be offered to patients with highly suspected or profen locoregional regrowth, without distant metastases. The safety and feasibility of active surveillance depends on several factors monitored in the SANO trial. So far, these stopping rules have not been met. In case one of the stopping rules is reached, further inclusion in the SANO-2 study will be stopped and surgical resection is offered.
