Aim of the study This is a randomized controlled parallel-group, superiority trial comparing RAMIE to MIE with intrathoracic anastomosis (Ivor-Lewis) in patients with resectable esophageal adenocarcinoma or adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction in the Western World.
Methods Objectives
Background:
- The incidence of esophageal cancer continues to increase with an estimated 16,900 new cases and 15,700 deaths in 2016. Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is the dominant histology in the United States and accounts for the rising incidence; the incidence of esophageal squamous cell cancer
This confirmatory, nonrandomized, single-arm trial (phase II) will be conducted to evaluate short-and long-term outcomes of robot-assisted thoraco- laparoscopic minimally invasive esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. Patients will registered preoperatively. The planned sample size was 51.
