Objective:
Narrative objectives1 - Esophageal cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide, and the 5-year survival rate for advanced esophageal cancer is poor, at 15%. The standard neoadjuvant treatment for resectable advanced esophageal cancer has been 5-FU plus cisplatin (FP therapy). However, in 2024, it was reported that FP plus docetaxel (DCF therapy) significantly extended overall survival compared with FP therapy (4). This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic outcomes and safety of FP therapy and DCF therapy as neoadjuvant standard treatments for resectable advanced esophageal cancer.
