Brief Summary: The interaction of epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR inhibitory agents such as cetuximab combined with radiation shows promising results EGFR inhibitory agents also enhance radiation-induced apoptosis and inhibit radiation induced damage repair These interactions may represent the principle effects that contribute to the synergy between EGFR and radiation

This trial will investigate the feasibility and activity of this combination in patients with surgically resectable disease
Detailed Description: OUTLINE This is a multi-center study

Cetuximab 400 mgm2 IV over 120 minutes Day -14 Loading Dose
Cetuximab 250 mgm2 IV over 60 minutes day -7
Cetuximab 250 mgm2 IV over 60 minutes days 1 8 15 22 29 and 36
External beam radiation therapy beginning on day 1 4500 cGy to esophagus with boost of 540 cGy at 180 cGy per fraction for 6 weeks
Surgical resection of primary tumor and adjacent mediastinal andor celiac lymph nodes by a transthoracic approach after satisfactory hematologic and functional recovery within 8 weeks of completion of radiation therapy
For patients who give their consent fresh frozen tissue will be obtained per EUS at baseline per EUS 2 weeks after the initiation of cetuximab and at the time of surgery for pathology submission
