Study summary

The goal of the study lies in offering a multimodal analysis of the post-therapeutic response based on both quantitative parameters and radiomics (CT, MRI, and PET imaging), and on tumor biology, in particular the hypersensitive detection of tumor DNA.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Performance of multimodal approach to predict response to chemoradiation

    Estimation of the area under the curve associated with the overall performance of the combined score established by the multimodal approach (PET/CT, MRI, CT, circulating tumor DNA, lymph node tumor DNA) in the post-CRT assessment of the status of a locoregional response within 12 months after chemoradiation.

    Time frame: 12 months after treatment
