Patients (pts) with esophageal cancer (EsophCa) have a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. The effect of histological subtype on tumor molecular profile remains unknown. Here we aim to compare the molecular aberrations in esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
