EndoFLIP-Guided Initial Management of Esophagogastric Junction Outflow Obstruction (O-FLIP)

4 novembre 2026 mis à jour par: Elizabeth Barba, Hospital Clinic of Barcelona

Prospective Evaluation of an Impedance Planimetry-Guided Therapeutic Stratification Algorithm in Patients With Esophagogastric Junction Outflow Obstruction After Endoscopic Assessment: O-FLIP Multicenter Study

Esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO) can make it difficult for food to pass from the esophagus into the stomach. Some people improve without a procedure to treat the obstruction, while others have persistent swallowing difficulties and may need further treatment.

The O-FLIP study tests whether measurements taken during an endoscopy with a tool called EndoFLIP can help doctors choose an initial treatment for adults with EGJOO. The main outcome is improvement in swallowing symptoms three months after initial management. The study will also track how long improvement lasts and how many participants need further treatment over one year.

Aperçu de l'étude

Description détaillée

O-FLIP is a prospective, multicenter, nonrandomized, single-arm interventional study evaluating an EndoFLIP-guided initial management strategy for esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO). Specialist esophageal motility units in Spain will enroll consecutive adults with clinically relevant dysphagia who meet the study eligibility criteria. Baseline data will include clinical characteristics, symptom scores, and findings from high-resolution manometry, timed barium esophagram, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, and EndoFLIP panometry.

Participating centers will receive common training and use a standardized protocol for EndoFLIP acquisition and interpretation based on the Dallas Consensus. The treating endoscopist will interpret EndoFLIP findings in real time to guide initial management. The coordinating center will subsequently review coded recordings to assess measurement quality and agreement with the local classification.

Symptoms and scores on the Brief Esophageal Dysphagia Questionnaire (BEDQ) and Eckardt score will be recorded at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months, along with treatment changes, dysphagia recurrence, adverse events, and treatment escalation. Follow-up will start on the date of botulinum toxin administration for participants who receive it and on the date of the index endoscopy for those initially managed conservatively.

The primary analysis will estimate the proportion of participants with clinical response at 3 months in the overall cohort, with a 95% confidence interval. Outcomes will also be summarized by baseline EndoFLIP category. Secondary analyses will assess the durability of response and time to definitive treatment directed at the esophagogastric junction. Among participants who receive botulinum toxin, exploratory analyses will examine baseline clinical and physiological factors associated with an incomplete or transient response and with subsequent definitive treatment. Additional exploratory analyses will examine how baseline timed barium esophagram findings relate to EndoFLIP findings and clinical outcomes.

  • High-resolution manometry findings consistent with esophagogastric junction outflow obstruction (EGJOO) according to Chicago Classification version 4.0: elevated median integrated relaxation pressure in both the supine and upright positions, evidence of peristalsis, and intrabolus pressure greater than 20 mmHg in at least 20% of supine swallows, without meeting criteria for achalasia. Premature or hypercontractile contractions are permitted when peristalsis is present and criteria for type III achalasia are not met.

Intervention / Traitement
Expérimental: EndoFLIP-Guided Clinical-Care Strategy

All participants will follow a standardized management algorithm based on esophagogastric junction (EGJ) opening on EndoFLIP panometry. Reduced opening will lead to botulinum toxin type A injection during the same endoscopy. Inconclusive or normal opening will lead to initial conservative management, which may include observation, proton pump inhibitors, neuromodulators, or calcium channel blockers at the treating physician's discretion.

EndoFLIP panometry will be performed during the index upper gastrointestinal endoscopy after mechanical causes of dysphagia have been excluded. The treating endoscopist will classify EGJ opening in real time according to standardized Dallas Consensus criteria. Coded recordings will subsequently undergo central review to assess measurement quality and agreement with the local classification.

  • Functional Lumen Imaging Probe
  • Impedance Planimetry
  • FLIP Panometry

Botulinum toxin type A will be injected endoscopically into the lower esophageal sphincter in participants with reduced EGJ opening. The treating physician will be responsible for prescribing and administering the injection as part of the EndoFLIP-guided management strategy.

Description du régime IPD

There is no plan to make individual participant data available to researchers outside the study team. Coded EndoFLIP recordings without direct participant identifiers will be transferred from participating sites to the coordinating center for central review as part of the study.
