Immunotherapy in Patients With Locally Advanced Esophageal Carcinoma: ASCO Treatment of Locally Advanced Esophageal Carcinoma Guideline Rapid Recommendation Update

Preoperative treatment of locally advanced esophageal carcinoma (Review).

Esophageal cancer (EC) is an aggressive malignancy with increasing incidence worldwide. Surgery is still the most effective treatment, however, both the high rate of local and distant recurrences and surgery-related complications led us to investigate new preoperative strategies. In this review, we discuss the role of neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced EC with a focus on preoperative chem...

CEP55 overexpression predicts poor prognosis in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) involves alterations in multiple genes with corresponding proteins. Recent studies have demonstrated that centrosomal protein 55 (CEP55) shares certain features with oncogenes, and CEP55 overexpression is associated with the development and progression of malignant tumors. The present study aimed to analyze, for the first time, whether CE...
