Brief Summary

At present, the evaluation of the effect of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with immunotherapy for locally advanced esophageal cancer is mainly based on postoperative pathology, among which, the pathological assessment of tumor regression grade (TRG) and TNM staging are the basis for the routine pathological diagnosis of esophageal cancer, and the College of American Pathologists divides the TRG after neoadjuvant therapy to esophageal cancer into four grades: 0, 1, 2, and 3.The residual primary tumor in the resection specimen following neoadjuvant therapy is associated with shorter overall survival. Therefore ,the prediction of TRG after neoadjuvant therapy is vital for patients. We aim to seek to identify factors associated with TRG system as defined by the NCCN.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Tumor regression grade

    Tumor regression grade was defined by NCCN/CAP system. The grading ranges from 0 to 3. TRG is scored as follows: grade 0-No viabal cancer cell (including lymph nodes), grade 1-single cells or small groups of cancer cells, grade 2-single cells or rare small groups of cancer cells, and grade 3-extensive residual cancer with no evident tumor regression.

    up to 1 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Disease-free survival

    About 2 years postoperatively

  • Overall survival

    About 2 years postoperatively

Study Arms (3)

upper thoracic case

Cervical esophagus to lower border of the azygos vein

Other: Patients were grouped according to tumor location

Middle thoracic case

Cervical esophagus to lower border of the azygos vein

Other: Patients were grouped according to tumor location

Lower thoracic case

Lower border of the inferior pulmonary vein to the stomach, including the esophagogastric junction

Other: Patients were grouped according to tumor location
