A matched cohort comparison of endoscopic resection, chemoradiation and esophagectomy in the treatment of early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma - 07/03/23
Abstract |
Background |
The efficacy of endoscopic resection in early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has not been defined.
Methods |
We queried the National Cancer Database to identify patients presenting with cT1N0M0 esophageal squamous cell cancer between 2004 and 2017. Transitive match methods were used to 1:1:1 propensity match patients undergoing endoscopic resection to patients undergoing esophagectomy and those undergoing definitive chemoradiotherapy. Kaplan Meier method was used to compare 5-year overall survival profiles for matched cohorts.
Results |
301 patients (19%) underwent endoscopic resection; 497 (32%) esophagectomy; 767 (49%) chemoradiation. On comparison of matched cohorts, patients undergoing chemoradiation demonstrated lower rates of survival than those undergoing esophagectomy (32% vs. 59%, p < 0.0001) while those undergoing endoscopic resection demonstrated rates comparable to patients undergoing esophagectomy (53% vs. 59%, p = 0.77).
Conclusions |
For cT1N0M0 esophageal squamous cell cancer, endoscopic resection is associated with rates of survival similar to those following esophagectomy and better than those following definitive chemoradiation.

• | Endoscopic resection for cT1N0M0 squamous cell carcinoma had comparable survival rates to esophagectomy. |
• | Esophagectomy and endoscopic resection had a risk-adjusted absolute survival advantage of 27% and 21% relative to CRT. |
• | Endoscopic resection was associated with accelerated rates of post-operative recovery but higher rates of R1 resection. |
