Clinical Trial Summary

Researchers are trying to see if the Nvision® Imaging System (VLE) can accurately determine the risk of recurrent Barrett's esophagus in patients with Barrett's esophagus which have been clear of disease.

Description:

Patients with Barrett's Esophagus (BE) undergoing endoscopic therapy through our Barrett's Esophagus Unit will be approached for study enrollment. Patients with no endoscopic evidence of BE will be considered for the study. Surveillance biopsies will be obtained per standard clinical protocol and reviewed to confirm absence of intestinal metaplasia. Patients who have achieved complete eradication of intestinal metaplasia (CRIM) will be enrolled in the study and will undergo the Nvision® Imaging System (VLE). Patients enrolled in the study will undergo clinical follow-up consisting of surveillance endoscopy every 3 months for 1 year. Surveillance endoscopy intervals may be prolonged to every 6 months in the second year, and annually thereafter. At each follow-up visit, endoscopic data will be collected to determine if patients remain in CRIM or show evidence of recurrent disease. Patients will be followed for 1 year (endpoint 1) and 3 years (endpoint 2). .

Intervention

Device:
• The Nvision VLE Imaging System
Volumetric laser Endomicroscopy (VLE) will be performed by using the Nvision VLE Imaging System (Nine Point Medical, MA) consists of an imaging console, monitor and optical probe. The optical probe is centered by a balloon (diameter: 14 mm, 17 mm, 20 mm; length: 6 cm) that is deployed through a diagnostic gastroscope's instrument channel. Imaging is performed by automatic helical pullback of the probe from the distal to the proximal end of the balloon over 90 seconds.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Determine association between number of glandular structures measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy	Measure the number of glandular structures observed with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.	1 year
Primary	Determine association between distribution of glandular structures measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy	Measure the distribution (gastric cardia versus esophagus) of glandular structures observed with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.	1 year
Primary	Determine association between thickness of neosquamous epithelium measured with volumetric laser endomicroscopy and recurrence of Barrett's esophagus following endoscopic therapy	Measure the thickness of neosquamous epithelium (mm) with volumetric laser endomicroscopy in patients who remain free of Barrett's esophagus and in those with recurrent disease. Report the mean and standard-deviation of this metric and determine a statistical significant difference using the Student's t-test.	1 year
Secondary	Develop a volumetric laser endomicrosopy feature scoring index to stratify the risk of disease recurrence in patients with Barrett's esophagus following treatment	The proposed model will stratify patients into two categories (1) low risk of recurrence and (2) high risk of recurrence. Low risk of disease recurrence is defined by a rate of <5% per patient-year. High risk of disease recurrence is defined by a rate of >10% per patient year.	3 years
