Summary

To determine whether chemotherapy before surgery makes better outcome than chemotherapy after surgery in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Detailed description

The previous study JCOG9204 showed that postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with cisplatin and fluorouracil has a detectable preventive effect on relapse in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma compared with surgery alone.(J Clin Oncol 2003;21:4592-4596) Therefore the standard treatment for stage II and III esophageal cancer is adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery.
