Summary

This clinical trial has two stages: phase II and phase III. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to the two arms: paclitaxel plus cisplatin and cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil. The phase II stage will enroll 128 patients, 64 patients for each arm. The endpoint of the phase II stage is complete pathological response (pCR). If the endpoint, i.e., the significant improvement of pCR rate, is met, the clinical trial will proceed to the phase III stage, in which 120 more patients will be enrolled. The estimated enrollment time is four years with 3 more years of follow-up after completing enrollment. The primary endpoint of the clinical trial is overall survival, and the secondary endpoints include clinical response, disease free survival, operation rate, complete resection rate, tumor regression rate, hospital stay days after surgery, safety and toxicity, and quality of life.
