View clinical trials related to Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
Filter by:Celiac disease (CD) and eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) are distinct diseases of the gastrointestinal tract with specific clinico-pathological characteristics. In recent years, in the literature, several children who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy for suspected CD, which was confirmed histologically, were also found to have coexistent EE. There are reports of coexistent CD and EE. We would like to see the prevalence of EE in children with CD and the prevalence of CD in children with EE in our population, and to do so would like to review medical records. Our objectives are to determine if children with celiac disease have a high prevalence of eosinophilic esophagitis.and to determine if children with eosinophilic esophagitis have increased risk of developing celiac disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a xanthan gum or honey based budesonide slurry exhibit comparable mucosal contact time to a budesonide/sucralose slurry in healthy adult subjects.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effective dose(s) of RPC4046 in the treatment of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE). This trial consists of two phases: 16 weeks of double-blind treatment and 52 weeks of open-label extension.
The main purpose of this study is to improve the diagnostics of celiac disease and reduce the need for invasive endoscopic studies in children. Further, the investigators aim to investigate the natural history and risk of complications in children with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity and to create a large scientific database.
The purpose of this research study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of three commonly used techniques for delivering anesthesia during a procedure known as esophagogastroduodenoscopy.
Purpose: To determine whether oral viscous budesonide (OVB) or fluticasone metered dose inhaler (MDI) most effectively treats EoE by improving histologic findings and symptoms, which medication provides a more durable treatment response, and whether biomarkers can predict treatment response. Participants: A total of up to 200 16-80 year old patients with a new diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) who are referred for upper endoscopy will be consented with a target of 122 randomized. Procedures: This will be a prospective, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, clinical trial comparing OVB to fluticasone MDI for treatment of EoE. This overall study design will generate data for all three Aims
To evaluate quantitative magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) as a potential non-invasive, radiation-free diagnostic tool for evaluating esophageal wall remodeling (thickness and stiffness) and response to treatment in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) presenting with dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) and food impaction.
Do patients with eosinophilic esophagitis have baseline increased esophageal mucosal impedance? And will treatment that reverses esophageal eosinophilia in patients, correct abnormalities in mucosal impedance?
This study is aimed at understanding whether oral nitric oxide levels can be used as a non-invasive marker for the diagnosis and management of patient with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
Our central hypothesis is that dietary limitations introduced by food allergy will contribute to increased food insecurity in households with food allergic children when compared to food insecure households without food allergic children.
