Summary

Both neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CROSS) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (FLOT) have demonstrated overall survival benefit over surgery alone in esophageal and esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancer. Despite these survival gains, the prognosis remains poor, especially in patients with nodal-positive adenocarcinoma (cN+ AC) (5-year survival 36%, compared to 55% for cN0). This highlights the need for more effective treatment options, and justifies treatment intensification in these patients.

The aim of this study is to determine the efficacy and feasibility of TNT FLOT-CROSS and TNT CROSS-FLOT in patients with resectable, cN+ AC of the esophagus or EGJ.
