Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Study the relationship between genome-wide genetic and epigenetic alterations as well as characteristics of the tumor immune microenvironment of esophageal carcinomas and the association with disease free and progression free survival in order to identify biomarkers for response to treatment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Study the relationship between genome-wide genetic and epigenetic alterations as well as characteristics of the tumor immune microenvironment of in esophageal carcinomas and the association to prognosis. Thereby we hope to identify a molecular alteration or profile that is associated with a high risk of distant metastasis. | — |
