Results

Because the number of patients enrolled in the study was lower than predicted, it was difficult to continue the study. Although the period from EBD to the appearance of dysphagia symptoms in the EBD followed by steroid group was longer than EBD group, there was no statistically significant difference. There were no adverse events associated with steroid injection.

Baseline Characteristics

The median age was 69 years (34-83). They were all male. The stenosis was located in the upper thoracic esophagus; 9, middle thoracic esophagus; 6, lower thoracic esophagus; 3.
The Dysphasia score (DS) before dilation was DS2 in 16 patients and DS3 in 2 patients. Number of dilations before protocol treatment: less than 2 dilations in 13 patients, more than 3 dilations in 5 patients, previous radiotherapy (RT) in 8 patients, no previous RT in 10 patients, previous photodynamic therapy (PDT) in 4 patients, no previous PDT in 14 patients.

Participant flow

The number of eligible cases was lower than predicted. The study was terminated due to the limited pace of accumulation, which was 4-7 cases per year, although we had predicted an accumulation of 20 cases per year.

Adverse events

None

Outcome measures

Fifteen patients (6 in the EBD followed by steroid group and 9 in the EBD alone group) were included in the analysis. The primary endpoint of esophageal patency (the period from EBD to the appearance of dysphagia symptoms) was assessed by the log-rank test. The median period from EBD to the appearance of dysphagia symptoms in the EBD followed by steroid group was 48.5 (14-180) days, while median period from EBD to the appearance of dysphagia symptoms in the EBD group was 23 (3-180) days. Log-rank tests showed no statistically sig nificant difference between the two groups (p=0.51). After completion of the protocol treatment, DS improved in 2/6 (33.3%) of EBD followed by steroid group and 2/9 (22.2%) of the EBD group, but the difference was not statistically significant. There were no adverse events associated with steroid injection.
