Changing chemotherapy during concurrent radiation followed by surgery after sub-optimal FDG-PET response to induction chemotherapy improves outcomes in locally advanced esophageal adenocarcinoma

BACKGROUND: PET scan after induction chemotherapy before pre-operative chemoradiation and surgery for esophageal adenocarcinoma predicts outcomes. Some patients with progression on PET after induction chemotherapy had long-term overall survival (OS) when changed to alternative chemotherapy during ra...
