March 17, 2022 updated by: Cadman Leggett, Mayo Clinic

The Use of Volumetric Laser Endomicroscopy to Predict Recurrence of Barrett's Esophagus After Complete Eradication of Intestinal Metaplasia

Researchers are trying to see if the Nvision® Imaging System (VLE) can accurately determine the risk of recurrent Barrett's esophagus in patients with Barrett's esophagus which have been clear of disease.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Withdrawn

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Patients with Barrett's Esophagus (BE) undergoing endoscopic therapy through our Barrett's Esophagus Unit will be approached for study enrollment. Patients with no endoscopic evidence of BE will be considered for the study. Surveillance biopsies will be obtained per standard clinical protocol and reviewed to confirm absence of intestinal metaplasia. Patients who have achieved complete eradication of intestinal metaplasia (CRIM) will be enrolled in the study and will undergo the Nvision® Imaging System (VLE). Patients enrolled in the study will undergo clinical follow-up consisting of surveillance endoscopy every 3 months for 1 year. Surveillance endoscopy intervals may be prolonged to every 6 months in the second year, and annually thereafter. At each follow-up visit, endoscopic data will be collected to determine if patients remain in CRIM or show evidence of recurrent disease. Patients will be followed for 1 year (endpoint 1) and 3 years (endpoint 2).

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient undergoing an upper endoscopy with prior biopsy confirmed Barrett's Esophagus.
  • Ability to provide written, informed consent
  • No significant esophagitis (LA grade <B, C, and D)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients for whom use of the NvisionVLE device would be in conflict with the instruction for use.
  • Prior esophageal or gastric surgical resection

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Volumetric laser Endomicroscopy (VLE)
Volumetric laser Endomicroscopy (VLE) is a second-generation optical coherence tomography platform that can image the human esophagus in cross-section at microscopic resolution this will performed by using the Nvision VLE Imaging System.
Device: The Nvision VLE Imaging System
Volumetric laser Endomicroscopy (VLE) will be performed by using the Nvision VLE Imaging System (Nine Point Medical, MA) consists of an imaging console, monitor and optical probe. The optical probe is centered by a balloon (diameter: 14 mm, 17 mm, 20 mm; length: 6 cm) that is deployed through a diagnostic gastroscope's instrument channel. Imaging is performed by automatic helical pullback of the probe from the distal to the proximal end of the balloon over 90 seconds.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Determine association between number of glandular structures measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy
Time Frame: 1 year
Measure the number of glandular structures observed with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.
1 year
Determine association between distribution of glandular structures measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy
Time Frame: 1 year
Measure the distribution (gastric cardia versus esophagus) of glandular structures observed with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.
1 year
Determine association between thickness of neosquamous epithelium measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy
Time Frame: 1 year
Measure the thickness of neosquamous epithelium (mm) with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Develop a volumetric laser endomicrosopy feature scoring index to stratify the risk of disease recurrence in patients with Barrett's esophagus following treatment
Time Frame: 3 years
The proposed model will stratify patients into two categories (1) low risk of recurrence and (2) high risk of recurrence. Low risk of disease recurrence is defined by a rate of <5% per patient-year. High risk of disease recurrence is defined by a rate of >10% per patient year.
