Navicam for Detection of Barrett's Esophagus
Using a non-invasive capsule system to achieve optimal viewing angles of the esophagus for detection of Barrett's esophagus
Obeticholic Acid for Prevention in Barrett's Esophagus
This phase II trial studies the effect of obeticholic acid in treating patients with Barrett's esophagus. Bile acids present in duodenogastroesophageal reflux contribute to neoplastic progression in Barrett's esophagus. Obeticholic acid has shown anti-cholestatic, anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects mediated by FXR activation. It down regulates bile acid availability and decreases …
Barrett's Esophagitis in Anorexia Nervosa Binge/Purge Subtype
To better define the presence of Barrett's esophagus (BE) via non-endoscopic testing in an eating disorder cohort with purging (vomiting/rumination) behaviors
Ultralong-segment Barrett's Esophagus: Towards a Capsule-sponge Surveillance Strategy
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Endosign capsule sponge test as a novel surveillance method in patients with an ultralong-segment Barrett's esophagus.
Nonendoscopic Screening for Barrett's Esophagus in Veterans Without Chronic Reflux
The veteran population is at increased risk for EAC and its precursor lesion, Barrett's esophagus (BE), due to increased prevalence of disease risk factors compared to the general population. BE is traditionally diagnosed only when patients undergo endoscopy with biopsies. However, due to the high cost of endoscopy and the …
Assessment of a Minimally Invasive Collection Device for Molecular Analysis of Esophageal Samples
This clinical trial evaluates the use of cytosponge, a minimally invasive collection device, for the detection of Barrett's esophagus (BE) in patients undergoing endoscopy. Non-endoscopic swallowable encapsulate sponge cell collection devices combined with markers for BE/esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) detection are a guideline-endorsed alternative to endoscopy for BE screening. The Oncoguard …
A Study Comparing the Effectiveness of EndoRotor Versus Radiofrequency in Treating Barrett's Esophagus
Barrett Esophagus is a common pathology, with an estimated prevalence of 1.6% at risk of progression to precancerous mucosa (low to high grade dysplasia). The incidence of adenocarcinoma on BE is 0.5% per year. In the event of dysplasia or cancer in situ, it is currently recommended at international and …
Barrett's Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, Searching for Reliable Diagnostic RNA Plasma-based Biomarkers
This study is designed to perform a explorative search of the transcriptome to detect new circulating diagnostic sensitive and specific biomarkers in patients with Barrett's esophagus or esophageal adenocarcinoma.
Pilot Study for OCT Guided In Vivo Laser Capture Microdissection for Assessing the Prognosis of Barrett's Esophagus
The investigators have developed a new technology, termed in-vivo laser capture microdissection (IVLCM), that addresses the limitations of endoscopic biopsy for screening for BE and provides targeted genomic profiling of aberrant tissue for more precise prediction of EAC risk. The device is a tethered capsule endomicroscope (TCE) that implements optical …
EMR Versus ESD for Barrett's Neoplasia
Rationale The optimal technique for removal of visible dysplastic lesions in Barrett's esophagus remains controversial. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is safe, effective, easy to apply, and has been the most widely used technique since 2008. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a more controlled dissection method with potential improved efficacy, but …
