Oesophagectomy is one of the hardest operations in surgery. If chemoradiation (with or without immunotherapy) has made the tumour disappear, skip it and watch.
SANO showed non-inferior 2-year survival for active surveillance in clinical complete responders after CROSS. Adding PD-1 blockade to chemoradiation (KEYNOTE-975, SKYSCRAPER-07, ESCORT-CRT) may raise complete response rates and make surveillance viable for more patients; ctDNA and PET could sharpen response assessment.
