Abstract Background This retrospective study was to assess and compare the toxicity and efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with S-1 or docetaxel and cisplatin in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods Patients with locally advanced ESCC who received CCRT with S-1 (70 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1–14, every 3 weeks for 2 cycles, S-1 group) or docetaxel (25 mg/m2) and cisplatin (25 mg/m2) on day 1 weekly (DP group) between 2014 and 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Radiotherapy was delivered in 1.8–2.0 Gy per fraction to a total dose of 50–60 Gy. Treatment-related toxicities (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0), response rate, and survival outcomes were compared between groups. Results A total of 175 patients were included in this study (72 in the S-1 group and 103 in the DP group). Baseline characteristics were well balanced between the two groups. The incidence of grade 3–4 adverse events were significantly lower in the S-1 group than that of the DP group (22.2% vs. 45.6%, p = 0.002). In the DP group, elderly patients (> 60 years) had a significantly higher rate of grade 3–4 adverse events than younger patients (58.1% vs. 31.3%, p = 0.01). The objective overall response rate (complete response + partial response) was 68.1% in the S-1 group, and 73.8% the DP group (p = 0.497). The 3-year overall survival was 34.7% in the S-1 group, and 38.8% in the DP group (p = 0.422). The 3-year progression free survival in the DP group was higher than that in the S-1 group but without significant difference (33.0% vs. 25.0%, p = 0.275). Conclusion CCRT with S-1 is not inferior to CCRT with docetaxel and cisplatin and is better tolerated in in elderly patients with locally advanced ESCC.

BackgroundThis trial aims to explore the feasibility and safety of postoperative radiotherapy covering all regional lymph node areas for locally advanced thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).MethodsThis was a single-center single-arm, phase II clinical trial initiated in 2014. Patients who were treated with radical transthoracic resection and had negative margins within 3 months and histologically confirmed esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (pT3-4 or N+, M0 determined by the 7th edition of the AJCC guidelines) were recruited in this trial. Postoperative radiotherapy was performed with a total dose of 40 Gy in 20 fractions using IMRT. Clinical target volumes (CTVs) included the tumor bed, anastomosis, bilateral supraclavicular region, mediastinal lymph nodes, left gastric lymph nodes and celiac trunk lymph nodes. The primary endpoint was the 2-year local control rate, and the secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and adverse events (AEs).ResultsA total of 70 eligible patients were recruited from 2014 to 2016. The 2-year local control rate, as the primary endpoint, was 67.3%. In addition, the median OS was 57.0 months, with 1-year and 3-year OS rates of 92.8% and 60.9%, respectively. Among the patients, 28/40 (40%) developed locoregional recurrence, with 25.7% involving hematogenous recurrences. All reported AEs occurred during the course of IMRT or within 6 months thereafter. None of them suffered grade 4 hematological or nonhematological AEs. Nearly all patients completed the entire course of postoperative radiotherapy, with a completion rate of 97.1%.ConclusionFor an extensive target volume, 40 Gy is feasible and shows acceptable toxicity in patients with locally advanced thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, although the local recurrence rate is relatively high. Our findings provide a basis for further exploration of high-dose radiation with extensive CTV combined with chemotherapy.Clinical Trial Registration[http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=&term=NCT02384811&cntry=&state=&city=&dist=], identifier [NCT02384811].

79 Background: We investigated the efficacy and safety of adding cetuximab into twice-weekly paclitaxel/cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT), followed by surgery, for patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: Patients with operable ESCC (T3N0-1M0 or T1-3N1M0 or M1a) were treated with paclitaxel (35 mg/m2 1 h on days 1 and 4/week), cisplatin (15 mg/m2 1 h on days 2 and 5/week), cetuximab (400 mg/m2 2 h on day -5, then 250 mg/m2 2 h on day 3/week) and radiotherapy (2 Gy on days 1-5/week). When the accumulated radiation dose reached 40 Gy, the feasibility of esophagectomy was evaluated for all patients. In patients for whom esophagectomy was not feasible, CCRT was continued to a radiation dose of 60-66 Gy. Results: Sixty-two patients with ESCC were enrolled, and the majority had T3N1M0 or M1a tumors by endoscopic ultrasonographic staging (94%). All patients received CCRT to 40 Gy. Forty-three patients underwent surgery, and 17 patients continued definitive CCRT to 60-66 Gy. Of the scheduled doses of paclitaxel, cisplatin, and cetuximab, 80%, 79%, and 99% were given, respectively. The intent-to-treat pathological complete response rate was 24% (15/62) (95% confidence interval: 13-35%). At the median follow-up of 13.3 months, the one-year progression-free and overall survivals were 76% and 63%, respectively. The most common grade 3/4 toxic effects were leukopenia (51%), neutropenia (15%), esophagitis (19%), and infection (12%). Grade 1, 2, and 3 skin rash occurred in 59%, 36%, and 2% of patients, respectively. Grade 1, 2, 3, and 4 hypomagnesemia occurred in 14%, 5%, 0%, and 5% of patients, respectively. Conclusions: Adding cetuximab to twice-weekly paclitaxel/cisplatin-based CCRT prior to esophagectomy is an active and tolerable treatment for locally advanced ESCC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

4042 Background: The optimal use of the metabolic tumor response measured by 18fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) in the treatment of esophageal cancer is currently unknown. We launched a phase II clinical trial to evaluate the early metabolic response to one-cycle chemotherapy in locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients, who subsequently received neoadjuvant chemoradiation (neo-CRT) followed by surgery. Methods: ESCC patients with stage T3 or N1M0 or M1a (AJCC, 6th edition) were enrolled to receive one-cycle chemotherapy, day 1 and 8 doses of paclitaxel, cisplatin, and 24-hour infusional 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin, followed by paclitaxel/cisplatin- based 40Gy neo-CRT and surgery. FDG-PET was performed at baseline and day 14 of the one-cycle chemotherapy. The primary endpoint is pathological complete response (pCR) to neo-CRT. We hypothesized that early PET responders, defined as > 35% reduction of maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) from the baseline, would significantly improve pCR. Results: Between Feb 2008 and Mar 2012, 66 patients (M: F = 61: 5) were enrolled. Their clinical stages were: II or III, 56; IVA, 10. Forty seven received surgery. The pCR rate per surgical population was 34.0%. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) for the whole study group was 16 months (95% CI 9-27) and 22 months (95% CI 16-40), respectively. A total of53 patients were evaluable for PET response. The early PET response was not associated with high pCR rate or better survivals. However, in an exploratory analysis, the post-chemotherapy SUVmax was an independent prognostic factor for pCR, PFS and OS. A predictive model for pCR composed of weight loss and the post-chemotherapy SUVmaxwas established with an AUC of 0.84. Conclusions: Our study failed to validate the predictive value of predefined early PET response to one-cycle chemotherapy for pCR to neo-CRT in locally advanced ESCC patients. However, the FDG-PET SUVmax after one-cycle chemotherapy may have prognostic and predictive significance, and may be explored in further studies. Clinical trial information: NCT01034332.
