BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) in patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) may lead to clinical complete response (cCR). It is important to know the accuracy of clinical response evaluations (CREs) before advocating active surveillance instead of oesophagectomy. METHODS This was a prospective, multicentre study of patients with locally advanced OSCC. They received the

BACKGROUND Postoperative pancreatic fistula is the main driver of morbidity and mortality after pancreatoduodenectomy. In high-risk patients, the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula approaches 50%, whereas it is below 5% in patients with pancreatic cancer who receive neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of preoperative stereotactic

Large, randomized trials are the bedrock of evidence-based medicine, but the resources required to complete such trials greatly limit the number of important clinical questions that can be addressed within a reasonable period of time. Adaptive platform trials can identify effective, ineffective, or harmful treatments faster. These trials have been shown to deliver rapid evidence through the COVID-19
