Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed consent;
  • Participants aged 18 years or more;
  • Participants diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis, defined as:

    1. Presence of symptoms of esophageal dysfunction intermittently or continuously during previous week to the screening visit;
    2. Eosinophilic esophageal inflammation with ≥ 15 eosinophils/high-power field, in the screening endoscopy;
    3. Exclusion of other causes of esophageal eosinophilia.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any clinical and laboratory findings that, in the judgment of the investigator, may interfere with the safety of research participants;
  • Participants with a stricture on endoscopy that prevents passage of the endoscope;
  • History of alcohol abuse or drug use;
  • Use of concomitant therapies for any reason that may affect the assessment;
  • History of gastroesophageal surgery;
  • History of the abnormal gastrointestinal disorder;
  • Another disorder that causes esophageal eosinophilia;
  • Pregnancy or risk of pregnancy and lactating patients;
  • Participants with known allergy, contraindication or hypersensitivity to the components of the medicine used in the clinical trial;
  • Participation in clinical trial in the year prior to this study.
