Clinical predictors of pathologically response after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: long term outcomes of a phase II study.

Conclusions: Our study indicated that good tumor grade were an independent significant factor for the GR to NCRT. Weight loss, drinking status and GR were independent factors in patients with radical esophagectomy after NCRT. GR may improve OS of ESCC patients receiving NCRT. PMID: 30416772 [PubMed]
