Study Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving panitumumab, combination chemotherapy, and radiation therapy together before surgery works in treating patients with advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal (GE) junction cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as panitumumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin, leucovorin calcium, and fluorouracil, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving monoclonal antibody therapy together with chemotherapy and radiation therapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

Primary Outcome

Based on the proportion who achieve pCR based on the first 4 courses of protocol treatment. Evaluated using the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 guidelines. Means (with associated standard errors), medians (with ranges), percentages and 95% confidence intervals will be reported as appropriate.
