Dedifferentiation of esophageal progenitors in metaplasia and cancer

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021

Recurrence following anastomotic leakage after surgery for carcinoma of the distal esophagus and gastroesophageal junction. a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: Esophageal cancer is the ninth most common cancer. The only potentially curative treatment is surgical resection, which unfortunately is still associated with major complications, the most important being anastomotic leakage, currently with ...

Prospective, open, multi-centre phase I/II trial to assess safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy with docetaxel and oxaliplatin in patients with adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: This phase I/II-trial assessed the dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy (RCT) with docetaxel and oxaliplatin in patients with locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric ...

Chemoprevention of esophageal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesGastroenterology Report, 2020
Abstract Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is a major cause of cancer-related death, particularly in Western populations, and is rapidly rising in Asian populations at this time. Virtually all EACs develop from the precursor lesion Barrett’s esophagus (BE), which is the most significant risk factor for EAC.
