Chemoimmunotherapy Followed by Surgery for Oligometastatic Esophagogastric Cancer: (TORO Protocol)
Chemoimmunotherapy Followed by Surgery for Oligometastatic Esophageal and Gastric Cancer: A Phase II Clinical Trial (TORO Protocol)
University Health Network, Toronto

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Esophageal cancer and cancers of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) are among the most common malignancies worldwide. The outcome for these patients remains very poor. Patients with limited spread of their cancer (oligometastatic disease) have a better prognosis than those with widespread disease. Recent advances in treatment therapies, including use of pre-operative immunotherapy, surgery and/or targeted radiation (SBRT) may help to prolong lifespan in patients with oligometastatic disease. Patients will undergo treatment for their oligometastatic esophageal or gastric cancer with pre-operative chemoimmunotherapy followed by surgery and possibly SBRT to evaluate the value of adding surgery and possibly SBRT to their treatment.
