Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficiency of the treatment 6 months post-procedure

    Evaluate the efficiency of the treatment 6 months post-procedure according to the patient's answers to the 2 following items : IPP treatment taken less than 7 days /week and adequate relief of symptoms. These results will be completed by the patient on a calendar during 2 weeks before the visit week 24

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Effects on digestive symptoms

    6 months

  • Effects on digestive symptoms

    1 year

  • Necessity of IPP treatment

    6 months

  • necessity of IPP treatment

    1 year

  • Tolerance

    6 months

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Stretta procedure

EXPERIMENTAL

Patient randomized in Stretta procedure arm will be hospitalized to have endoscopy and esophagus will receive radiofrequency. Control visits will then take place until Month 6. At this visit endoscopic control will take place.

Other: Stretta procedure

Sham procedure

SHAM COMPARATOR

Patient randomized in Sham procedure arm will be hospitalized to have endoscopy. Material necessary to perform Stretta procedure will be inserted (like in Stretta procedure arm) BUT esophagus will not receive radiofrequency. Control visits will then take place until Month 6. At this visit endoscopic control will take place.

Other: Sham procedure

Interventions

Also known as: Radiofrequency of esophagus
Stretta procedure

No radiofrequency delivered

Sham procedure
