Core Tip |
Neoadjuvant therapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the gastro-oesophageal junction (AEG). Prognosis of AEG is based mainly on postoperative tumour/node/metastasis (TNM) stages, using the American Joint Committee on Cancer/Union for International Cancer Control classification system. Yet, whether prognostication based on postoperative TNM stage is affected by preoperative neoadjuvant therapy is unclear. Retrospective analysis of 174 patients showed that the prognostic relevance of postoperative TNM stage is independent of preoperative neoadjuvant therapy. However, nodal down-stage response following neoadjuvant therapy was found to result in improvement of survival. |
