Can heartburn drugs help a stiff esophagus?
NCT ID NCT03312686
Summary
This small pilot study aims to see if treating esophageal inflammation with common acid-reducing medications (proton pump inhibitors) makes the swallowing tube more flexible. Researchers will measure flexibility in different parts of the esophagus in 10 adults with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) before and after treatment. The goal is to understand if reducing inflammation improves how well the esophagus can stretch and function.
