- Patients must have had a persistent disease 6-8 weeks after completing chemoradiotherapy with at least 50 Gy and platinum-based chemo and without complete response or progressive disease, based on upper endoscopy and/or CT scans;
- Patients must have realized CT scans within 6-8 weeks after completion of chemoradiotherapy, revealing persistent disease;
- Patients must be included \<12 weeks after completing chemoradiotherapy;
- Patients must be unsuitable to salvage esophagectomy, according multidisciplinary local board;
