Clinical trials: Stage II Esophageal Cancer AJCC v7
Esophageal Cancer, Gastric Cancer
Radiation Therapy and Chemotherapy Before and After Surgery in Treating Patients With Esophageal Cancer
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
- Trial name
- NCT00033657
- Testing
- cisplatin, irinotecan hydrochloride, paclitaxel
- Where
- 23 sites in United States
- Volunteers
- 97 people

Esophageal Cancer, Lung Cancer
PET Scan in Patients With Lung and Esophageal Cancers That May Be Removed by Surgery
RATIONALE: Imaging procedures, such as fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography (PET) scans, may improve the ability to detect lung and esophageal cancer or their recurrence.
- Trial name
- NCT00002930
- Testing
- positron emission tomography, fludeoxyglucose F 18
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 75 people

Esophageal Cancer, Gastric Cancer
Epirubicin, Oxaliplatin and Fluorouracil (EOF) in Cancer of the Esophagus, Gastroesophageal Junction, or Stomach
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as epirubicin, oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing.
- Trial name
- NCT00601705
- Testing
- cisplatin, epirubicin hydrochloride, fluorouracil
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers

Esophageal Cancer, Extrahepatic Bile Duct Cancer
Epirubicin, Carboplatin, and Capecitabine in Treating Patients With Unresectable Locally Advanced, Metastatic, or Recurrent Solid Tumor
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
- Conditions
- Esophageal Cancer, Extrahepatic Bile Duct Cancer, Gastric Cancer, Head and Neck Cancer
- Trial name
- NCT00021047
- Testing
- capecitabine, carboplatin, epirubicin hydrochloride
- Where
- 3 sites in United States

Esophageal Cancer
Combination Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients Who Are Undergoing Surgery for Locally Advanced Esophageal Cancer

- Trial name
- NCT00238147
- Testing
- capecitabine, carboplatin, docetaxel
- Where
- 2 sites in United States
