Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that stroma-targeting by tocilizumab in patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction with highly activated stroma increases efficacy of chemoradiotherapy measured by pathological response according to the Mandard criteria. Patients will be grouped for ADAM12, a non-invasive blood-borne marker of stromal activation.

Conditions

  • Esophageal Adenocarcinoma
  • Oesophageal Adenocarcinoma
  • Resectable Carcinoma

DRUG

Paclitaxel

Paclitaxel 50 mg/m2 will be given intravenously on days 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29

DRUG
