Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Observational study in patients who have undergo endoscopic removal of early oesophageal cancers classified as high risk after removal.

As this is a retrospective review, there is no active participation and all data will be from medical records collected as part of routine clinical practice.

After endoscopic removal of a high risk early cancer, patients will be observed for any clinical, radiological or surgical evidence of recurrent/residual cancer. This information is routinely collected as part of routine clinical care and will simply be collated for analysis at the end of the study period.

This is a retrospective study and therefore participants will not be required to complete any questionnaires.

The intention is to observe outcomes more than 5 years after initial removal of the high risk cancer however all data will be collect regardless of follow-up interval.

All data will be retrospectively collected, however all centers have prospectively collected this data as part of routine clinical care in treatment databases.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 333955 0
1. To assess the rates of cancer recurrence both locally, nodally or metastatic as a composite primary outcome.

This data will be sourced through review of medical records, imaging (CT/PET), endoscopic and surgical findings.
Timepoint [1] 333955 0
It is aimed to collected a minimum of 5 years outcome data from the date of resection of the high risk cancer. In general patients are assessed 3 monthly for the first year, then 6 monthly and then annual to 5 years.
Secondary outcome [1] 418827 0
To determine patient survival and describe the cause(s) of death
Timepoint [1] 418827 0
5 years post resection of high risk cancer. Outcome will be determined at last follow-up as recorded in the patients medical records.
Secondary outcome [2] 418828 0
To describe surgical mortality in surgical candidates
Timepoint [2] 418828 0
30 days post surgery
Secondary outcome [3] 418829 0
To describe the use of adjuvant chemotherapy/radiotherapy post endoscope local resection (ELR) / surgery. This data will be sourced from medical records.
Timepoint [3] 418829 0
5 years post resection of high risk cancer. Outcome will be determined at last follow-up as recorded in the patients medical records.
Secondary outcome [4] 418830 0
To describe the method of ELR, including Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR), Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD). This data will be sourced for treatment databases and patient medical records.
Timepoint [4] 418830 0
5 years post resection of high risk cancer.
Secondary outcome [5] 418831 0
To determine cancer-free survival
Timepoint [5] 418831 0
5 years post resection of high risk cancer.
Secondary outcome [6] 419822 0
To describe surgical morbidity in surgical candidates
Timepoint [6] 419822 0
5 years post surgical management.

Statistical methods / analysis
A sample of 200 participants’ data (approximately 20 at each site) will be reviewed for this descriptive study.
Patients will be stratified according to histopathological grading (T1a/T1b disease or AJCC staging) and treatment (ELR vs surgical) status. Descriptive summaries of patient cohort demographic and clinical data will consist of frequency distributions (n, %) for categorical data and means and standard deviations or medians and interquartile ranges for continuous data, depending on data distribution. Incidences of cancer recurrence (local, nodal or metastatic) and mortality outcomes (overall and disease-free survival) over the study period will be described using frequency distributions. Time to event survival outcomes (recurrence and mortality) will be examined using Kaplan-Meier survival probabilities and summarised using medians and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Stata version 17.0 (StataCorp, College Station, TX) will be used for data analysis and significance (alpha) will be set at 0.05.
