    Abstract

    Resectable oesophageal and gastro-oesophageal junction adenocarci-noma patients (pts) without early metabolic response (EMR) to chemotherapy asdefined by 18-FDG-PET (PET) show poor survival and major histological responserates (RR)<5%. This multicentre trial previously reported changing neoadjuvant ther-apy improved major histological RR for early metabolic non-responders (MNR).Grade 3/4 toxicities were seen in 27% of pts on 5-FUþcisplatin (CF); 42% on doce-taxelþCF (DCF) and 71% on DCFþconcurrent 45Gy radiotherapy (DCFRT).Updated results now report progression-free survival (PFS) and local recurrence.
