Impact of treatment time and waiting time on outcome for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma receiving definitive chemoradiotherapy
Delay of treatment time and waiting time has no effect on OS, LRFS, DMFS, and PFS. However, longer TSR was found to be associated with diminished survival outcomes for T1-2 stage rather than T3-4 ESCC patients treated with definitive CCRT.
