Summary
The LOCARE-Trial is an investigator initiated, randomized-controlled trial with two parallel
arms (n=60 each) and investigates the influence of esophageal washout on long-term outcomes
in patients undergoing elective esophageal resection for carcinoma. The primary endpoint is
defined as local carcinoma recurrence. Secondary endpoints will be locoregional and distant
recurrence, disease-specific survival and esophageal cancer specific survival.
