NCT02852525

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to further validate the use of probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) for the evaluation of Barrett's Esophagus and associated neoplasia in a larger patient base.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sensitivity and Specificity of probe based endomicroscopy as compared to histopathology in diagnosing Barrett's metaplasia

    30 minutes up to an hour on average after undergoing endoscopy

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Tissue and blood Biomarker evaluation in targeted biopsies obtained at endomicroscopy in patients diagnosed to have Barrett's metaplasia and dysplasia

    30 minutes up to an hour on average after undergoing endoscopy

Study Arms (1)

Confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE)

OTHER

Patients agreeing to participate in the research study will receive an additional intravenous injection during endoscopy. This dose of 2.5 mg of IV fluorescein will be administered during their EGD. Probe-based microscopy will be used to evaluate the mucosa of the esophagus and GE junction. Photographs will be taken and digitally stored. Biopsies (which are part of the routine diagnosis and surveillance of Barrett's) will be targeted based on the microscopic images. The histologic findings on the biopsy specimens will be compared to the microscopic images to determine the accuracy of the probe-based microscopy in predicting pathology.

Device: Confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE)
