Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Complete pathological response (cPRR) rate
time point when the tumor is examined after the surgery (up to 30 months)

Each center will assess the pathologic response with a centralized center review in case of cPRR and the analysis will be in intention-to-treat (ITT). cPRR will be defined as complete tumor disappearance of tumor in the low esophagus or the stomach (from 1/3 inferior of the esophagus to pylorus) after surgery anatomopathologic examination according to mandard scale. Surgery will be performed within 5 weeks +\\- 1 week after the last cycle (cycle 6) of neoadjuvant therapy

Secondary Endpoints

Disease-free survival (DFS)
Up to 36 months
Overall Survival (OS)
Up to 36 months
Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events
Patients will be assessed for AEs throughout the study at every visit during treatment and at 3-month follow-up visit (3 months after treatment ends). Investigators using the NCI-CTCAE version 5.0 will grade the severity of AEs.
