Staging for esophagogastric adenocarcinoma lacked sufficient prognostic accuracy and was revised. We compared survival prognostication between American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 6th and 7th editions.

absSec_2">Methods

abspara0015">We abstracted data for 836 patients who underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy for esophagogastric adenocarcinoma (n = 256 neoadjuvant). Monotonicity and strength of survival trends, by stage, were assessed (log-rank test of trend chi-square statistic) and compared using permutation testing. Overall survival (Cox regression) and model fit (Akaike Information Criterion) were determined.

absSec_3">Results

abspara0020">A greater log-rank test of trend statistic indicated stronger survival trends by stage in AJCC 7th (152.872 vs 167.623; permutation test P < .001) edition. Greater Cox likelihood chi-square value (162.957 vs 173.951) and lower Akaike Information Criterion (4,831.011 vs 4,820.016) indicated better model fit. Superior performance was also shown after neoadjuvant therapy.

absSec_4">Conclusion

abspara0025">AJCC 7th edition staging for esophagogastric adenocarcinoma provides superior prognostic stratification after minimally invasive esophagectomy, overall and after neoadjuvant therapy compared with AJCC 6th edition.
