Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy with omeprazole and swallowed fluticasone vs fluticasone therapy and placebo in the treatment of Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) in children and adults. This study will be a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial. The primary outcome measured will be histologic assessment of esophageal tissue biopsies measuring number of eosinophils per high power field (eos/hpf). Secondary outcomes will be endoscopic findings and symptomatic changes following therapy using validated endoscopic scoring measures and participant surveys, respectively.


Clinical Trial Description

Subjects that meet study inclusion criteria will be recruited from the Adult and Pediatric Gastroenterology clinics at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center through routine clinic visits, will meet with an investigator, and complete informed consent/assent. The participants will then complete a validated clinical symptom reporting tool - the Eosinophilic Esophagitis symptom activity index (EEsAI) for age 18 and above, or the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) for age 6-17yrs - and have their initial Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) images evaluated via a validated Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS). Esophageal biopsies taken at the patient's initial EGD will be assessed by 2 designated blinded pathologists to record the number of eosinophils per high power field (HPF), as well as perform tissue immunohistochemical staining for eotaxin-3. Participants will be block randomized to treatment or control groups and complete 8 weeks of therapy, with a phone follow up at 4 weeks for medication compliance. At the completion of 8 weeks of therapy, the participants will have repeat EGD to assess for mucosal healing, which is the standard of care in the treatment of EoE. At this EGD, the images will be assigned an EREFS and the biopsies will be evaluated for eosinophils per high powered field and eotaxin-3 staining. The patient will also complete an EEsAI or PedsQL. This procedure will end the 8 week study period. ;
