| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the activity in terms of pathological complete response rate (pCR) of a neoadjuvant treatment with XELOX followed by chemo-RT in patients with locally advanced (stage IB-III) carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction .;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate: objective response rate toxicity rate of R0 resections progression-free survival (PFS) overall survival (OS) • To validate the predictive role of early metabolic changes of the tumor measured by PET / CT • To evaluate the prognostic role of the immunocompetent cell subsets CD4, CD8, CD20, CD57, CD68;Primary end point(s): rate of complete pathologic response;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: surgery (about 21 weeks from study start) | — |
