BARRETT ESOPHAGUS

This study tests a freezing device (CryoBalloon) to treat Barrett's esophagus in people who still have abnormal cells after several standard heat treatments. About 70 adults will receive the freezing treatment during an endoscopy. The goal is to see if it can safely remove all pr…

This study explores whether a device called Endosign, which collects samples from the mouth, can reliably monitor Barrett's esophagus—a condition that can lead to esophageal cancer. Current monitoring requires regular, uncomfortable endoscopies. The study involves 60 adults with …

This study tests a simple, less invasive screening tool—a sponge on a string—to detect Barrett's esophagus and esophageal cancer. Researchers will enroll 450 adults with Barrett's esophagus who are already scheduled for an endoscopy. The goal is to see if DNA markers from the spo…

This study is testing a new, less invasive way to screen for Barrett's esophagus, a condition that can lead to esophageal cancer. Participants will swallow a small capsule with a camera that takes pictures of the esophagus. The goal is to see if this method is comfortable and wor…

This early-phase study tests whether taking aspirin can prevent Barrett's esophagus from returning after it has been successfully removed with a procedure called radiofrequency ablation. About 21 participants will take either aspirin or a placebo for 12 months, and researchers wi…

This study looks at 200 FDNY rescue workers who were exposed to World Trade Center dust and now have stomach or airway issues. Researchers will test saliva and breath samples to find better, noninvasive ways to detect conditions like acid reflux, Barrett's esophagus, and lung dis…

This study looks for early DNA changes in blood and tissue that might warn of esophageal cancer in people with Barrett's esophagus or chronic reflux. Researchers will follow 600 participants who are already having an upper endoscopy. The goal is to find markers that predict cance…

This study follows 500 adults with Barrett's esophagus, a condition where the lining of the food pipe changes, for 3 years. Researchers use a tethered capsule endomicroscopy device to take detailed images of the esophagus. The goal is to measure how the affected area changes over…

This study follows 100 adults with Barrett's esophagus, a condition where the lining of the food pipe changes, to see how it develops over time. Researchers use a special pill-sized camera that patients swallow to take detailed pictures of the esophagus. The goal is to better und…

This study creates a registry of 2,000 people with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and related conditions like Barrett's esophagus. Participants will be followed for up to 5 years to collect information from medical records and questionnaires. The goal is to better underst…

This study aimed to see if a special camera capsule could diagnose Eosinophilic Esophagitis and Barrett Esophagus by taking pictures of the esophagus, instead of using a standard biopsy. The study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available. I…
