A New Method for Determining Gastric Acid Output Using a Wireless Capsule
Background:
- Acid-related gastrointestinal disorders are numerous and may require chronic treatment and maintenance, but they are often difficult to diagnose and treat. Gastric analysis is a critical tool for diagnosing and treating acid-related disorders; however, at present it requires a technically difficult procedure, using a nasogastric tube, that is costly, invasive, and uncomfortable. Recently a new tool, the SmartPill, has been developed that can measure acid levels, temperature, and pressure throughout the stomach, small intestine, and colon by swallowing a small capsule. Researchers are interested in comparing current methods of measuring stomach acid with the SmartPill by studying both healthy volunteers and individuals with acid-related gastrointestinal disorders.
Objectives:
- To evaluate the usefulness and accuracy of the SmartPill for gastric analysis, compared with current procedures.
Eligibility:
- Phase 1A/1B: Healthy volunteers between 18 and 60 years of age.
- Phase 2: Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome or acid hypersecretion.
- Phase 3: Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, or idiopathic gastric hypersecretion.
Design:
- This study involves a screening visit, a 3-day inpatient study visit, and possible additional outpatient visits.
- Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical examination, as well as blood and urine samples.
- Phase 1A/1B: Participants will have a 3-day inpatient study visit with the following procedures:
- Imaging study of the stomach (simultaneous gastric emptying scintigraphy), followed by a special diet for the next day s test.
- Gastric analysis using a nasogastric tube to collect stomach acid secretions.
- SmartPill study, in which participants will ingest a SmartPill and wear a monitor for 24 to 48 hours to collect readings.
- Participants in Phase 1A will have a second outpatient SmartPill study 7 days after the first SmartPill study. Participants in Phase 1B will not have the second SmartPill study.
- Phase 2 and Phase 3: Participants will have a 3-day inpatient study visit with the following procedures:
- Imaging study of the stomach (simultaneous gastric emptying scintigraphy), followed by a special diet for the next day s test.
- Gastric analysis using a nasogastric tube to collect stomach acid secretions.
- SmartPill study, in which participants will ingest a SmartPill and wear a monitor for 24 to 48 hours to collect readings.
- Phase 2 and 3 participants will have outpatient study visits only if directed by the study researchers.
