Oxaliplatin (NSC-266046) Plus Protracted Infusion 5-Fluorouracil And Radiation For Potentially Curable Esophageal Cancer: A Phase II Trial With Molecular Correlates

SWOG Cancer Research Network·interventional·Posted Jul 12, 2004·Updated Oct 11, 2013

In Brief

A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and 2 other interventions for Esophageal Cancer. Completed, enrolled 98 participants across 143 sites.

Detailed Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Oxaliplatin and fluorouracil may make tumor cells more sensitive to radiation therapy and may kill more tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy and radiation therapy before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving oxaliplatin together with fluorouracil and radiation therapy works in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for stage II or stage III cancer of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction.
