Background. Treatment of nonmetastatic esophageal cancer with curative intention remains a major challenge. Neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy followed by surgery, as described in the CROSS trial in 2012, has been established as a standard of care. With this retrospective observational study, we aimed to analyze the results of the CROSS regimen in daily practice over the last 10 years at the St. Clara Hospital, a Swiss center for esophageal surgery. Methods. To determine the clinical outcome in our daily practice, the medical records of all patients with potentially curable localized esophageal cancer (T1N1 or T2-3N0-1 M0) treated with radiochemotherapy in neoadjuvant intention according to the CROSS regimen were reviewed. The primary endpoint was overall survival. Furthermore, an overall survival analysis of the subgroups of patients who exactly met the inclusion criteria of the CROSS trial with respect to age and weight loss before therapy was performed. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to estimate survival and compared by the log-rank test. Results. From January 2012 to January 2022, 91 patients with T1N1 or T2-3N0-1M0 esophageal cancer underwent neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy according to the CROSS regimen. The median age was 70 years (range 31–86 years), and 26 (29%) patients were over 75 years of age. Weight loss of more than 10% was observed in 23 (25%) patients. 77 (85%) patients underwent esophagectomy, and complete resection (R0) was obtained in 73 (95%) of them. The median overall survival was 41 months, compared to 49.4 months in the CROSS trial. The overall survival rate at 12 months was 85% and at 24 months, it was 68%, very similar to the CROSS trial results. 51% of the patients fully met the inclusion criteria of the CROSS trial with respect to age and pretherapeutic weight loss. Their overall survival rate at 12 months was 94% at St. Clara Hospital versus 82% in the CROSS trial (p = 0.04), and at 24 months, 81% versus 67% (p = 0.05). Conclusion. Overall, in a center specialized for the multimodal treatment of nonmetastatic esophageal cancer, the results of the CROSS trial seem to be well reproducible in daily practice.
