Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy such as docetaxel and cisplatin use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Giving combination chemotherapy with radiation therapy before surgery may shrink the tumor so that it can be removed

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel and cisplatin together with chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery works in treating patients with locally advanced resectable esophageal cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the effectiveness of neoadjuvant docetaxel and cisplatin and chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery in terms of pathological response rate in patients with locally advanced resectable esophageal cancer
Determine the feasibility of this regimen in terms of successful completion of therapy and survival at 30 days postoperatively in these patients

Secondary

Determine the parameters of disease control in these patients and toxicity of this regimen and compare these parameters with published results
Correlate early improvement of dysphasia after 1-2 courses of chemotherapy with predictive value with regard to tumor response and long-term disease control in patients treated with this regimen
Determine the quality of life of patients treated with this regimen
Determine the clinical benefit of this regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is a multicenter study

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy Patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour and cisplatin IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 22
Chemoradiotherapy Beginning 21 days after the last dose of neoadjuvant chemotherapy patients receive docetaxel IV over 30 minutes and cisplatin IV over 1 hour once a week and undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 5 weeks
Surgery Patients undergo surgery 3-8 weeks after the final administration of radiotherapy

Treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Quality of life is assessed at baseline day 22 of chemotherapy day 1 of chemoradiotherapy before surgery and then every 3 months for 1 year

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year every 6 months for 3 years and then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 22-66 patients will be accrued for this study
