NCT02451124

Brief Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies non-endoscopic brushing of the esophagus using a non-endoscopic inflatable balloon for the esophagus in screening for Barrett esophagus, a condition where the lining of the esophagus has changed or been replaced with abnormal cells that may lead to cancer. The non-endoscopic inflatable balloon for the esophagus is a capsule balloon that brushes against the walls of the esophagus to collect esophageal samples. Non-endoscopic brushing of the esophagus using a non-endoscopic inflatable balloon for the esophagus may help doctors find Barrett esophagus sooner, when it may be easier to treat.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Number of Participants Reporting Each Category of Tolerance Assessed by the Tolerance Survey

    Mean tolerance score as assessed by 'tolerance survey' with scores ranging from 0 to 50 with higher scores indicating worse tolerance of interventional balloon device. Subscales include anxiety, pain, choking, gagging, and overall tolerance, with each domain scores ranging from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating worse tolerance of interventional balloon device.

    At completion of study procedure (up to 60 minutes)

  • Sensitivity of the mVIM Assay in Balloon Brushings From Participants With BE

    Sensitivity of the mVIM assay in balloon brushings from participants with BE as measured by true positives determined by biomarker (mVIM and mCCNA1) analyses of corresponding esophageal balloon derived samples compared to initial diagnosis. The presence of at least 1% of methylated VIM in DNA extracted from the esophageal sampling balloon will be considered a positive assay.

    Up to 1 year

  • Specificity of the mVIM Assay in Balloon Brushings From Control Participants With no BE Diagnosis

    Specificity of the mVIM assay in balloon brushings from control subjects with BE as measured by true negatives determined by biomarker (mVIM and mCCNA1) analyses of corresponding esophageal balloon derived samples compared to initial control status. The presence of at least 1% of methylated VIM in DNA extracted from the esophageal sampling balloon will be considered a positive assay.

    Up to 1 year

  • Average Methylation of Methylated Beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 2 Assays

    Average methylation of methylated beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 2 assays

    Up to 7 months

  • Performance of the mVIM Assay in Balloon Brushings From Subjects Without BE

    Performance of the mVIM assay in balloon brushings from subjects without BE

    Up to 7 months

  • Average Methylation of Zinc Finger Protein 793 Assay

    Average methylation of zinc finger protein 793 assay

Study Arms (1)

Screening: non-endoscopic inflatable balloon for the esophagus

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergo non-endoscopic brushing of the esophagus using a non-endoscopic inflatable balloon for the esophagus over 30-60 minutes followed by a standard esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Questionnaire administration will provide self-reported data on patient experiences. laboratory biomarker analysis of biopsy will confirm diagnosis.
