Brief Summary: Esophageal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, while more than half new cases and deaths occurred in China. Surgery is the main curative treatment for this disease, the 5-year survival of EC remains poor, since most diseases are diagnosed at advanced stages.

In last decades, several large clinical trials and meta-analyses have demonstrated that neo-adjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery can significantly increase the overall survival of patients with EC compared with surgery alone, while no effect of nCRT was apparent on postoperative health-related quality of life . However, the optimal radiation dose and surgery timing are still unknown.

The investigators hypothesize that patients who receive higher dose (50.4Gy/28F) of neoadjuvant chemoradiation will have better pathologic response and progress-free survival compared to lower dose (41.4Gy/23F) of chemoradiation followed by surgery.
