  Objective: To assess pre-treatment factors that can predict the outcome of simultaneous integrated boostintensity-modulated radiotherapy (SIB-IMRT) or Late-course boost to gross tumor volume (LCBGTV) and help to choose treatment strategies appropriate for individual patients. Methods: Data obtained from 174 esophageal cancer (EC) patients, including 51 patients in the SIB-IMRT group and 123 patients in LCBGTV-IMRT group were reviewed between 2008 and 2012. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) comparison. Results: After the Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis, the 5 year OS rates and median survival in SIBIMRT group and LCBGTV-IMRT group were 52.4%, and 62.2 months and 37.7 %, and 49.6 months, respectively (p=0.491). The 5 year PFS rate was better in the SIB-IMRT group (27,6%; 95% CI :12.2 to 25.8 months) than in the LCBGTV-IMRT group (.. View more»
