The primary objective is to compare surgery with postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) versus surgery, in terms of the overall survival time (OS) in Stage II or III squamous cell esophageal carcinoma with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(nCRT).
The investigators hypothesize that striated esophagus deglutitive motor function is modulated by pharyngeal phase swallowing biomechanics.
Comparison of manometry measurements and EndoFlip Balloon measurements in patients with dysphagia and a known esophageal diagnosis
This is a single arm, single centre, investigator initiated study to investigate the feasibility of using PET-MRI imaging in radiation treatment workflow in up to 15 patients with esophagogastric cancer. PET-MRI imaging will be completed before the start of radiation treatment. MRI imaging will be completed during radiation treatment and …
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ProTractX3™ DCB for the treatment of benign esophageal strictures.
Patients undergoing open transcervical or endoscopic approach in which a laser or stapler is used to divide the common wall between the diverticulum and esophagus, or who are not surgical candidates but agree to follow-up.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over clinical trial of buspirone in patients with complaints of dysphagia due to poor esophageal motility. The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effect of buspirone on esophageal motility by performing high resolution impedance manometry (HRiM).
This is an investigator-initiated, single-arm, exploratory clinical study.The study population consisted of treatment naive advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy and residual lesions irradiation of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most aggressive malignant tumors. Although neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with surgery has significantly improved the survival rate of patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer, approximately half of the patients will experience local regional recurrence or distant metastasis. Lymphocytes are crucial immune cells …
Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is defined as the reflux of gastric content into the esophagus that causes troublesome symptoms or complications. Nine to 30% of the population suffers from GERD-suggestive symptoms (heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, chronic couch, sore throat). In the absence of warning signs, proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are …
