Barrett's esophagus

This study tests a new, less invasive way to look for Barrett's esophagus, a condition that can lead to cancer. Instead of a traditional endoscopy, a capsule attached to a string is swallowed to take pictures of the esophagus. The goal is to see if this method works well for dete…

This study tests a new, compact imaging system that uses a tethered capsule to take detailed pictures of the esophagus. Researchers want to see if it is safe, easy to use, and produces good images in healthy people and those with Barrett's esophagus. The goal is to prepare for a …

This study aims to create a collection of tissue and blood samples from people with digestive cancers or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Researchers will use these samples to build lab models that mimic how tumors grow and respond to treatments. The goal is to better understand…

This research study is investigating how genetics and environmental factors contribute to the development of Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma, a type of cancer. Researchers will collect samples from the esophagus using a non-endoscopic balloon capsule device, whi…

This pilot study is testing whether cells collected by brushing the esophagus during a routine endoscopy can be genetically analyzed to better predict cancer risk in people with Barrett's esophagus. Researchers will collect brush samples, biopsies, and blood from 50 patients, the…

This study aims to understand how the throat and esophagus normally prevent stomach contents from reaching the throat in people with GERD. Researchers will use a thin tube with sensors placed through the nose to measure pressure, acid, and liquid movement, along with a tiny camer…
