Filter by:Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is a immuno-mediated disease, characterised by a Th-2 food-antigen driven chronic inflammatory response of the esophagus. Main symptoms are dysphagia and food bolus impaction, frequently overlapping with most atypical and general symptoms like heartburn or regurgitation and difficulty to thrive in children. Overall incidence and prevalence of EoE are rapidly increasing. The complete comprehension of pathogenetic and molecular mechanism underlying this complex and relatively new disease is still to be conquered. For this reason, we created this EoE Biobank, in order to collect blood, oral and esophageal tissue samples of proven EoE patients to further exploit new insights of this disease.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of up to 12 months (52 weeks) of once daily oral administration of BLI5100 in patients with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) or healed erosive esophagitis (EE).
To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of DWP14012 40 mg compared to esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets for the treatment of reflux esophagitis.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of barzolvolimab in adult Eosinophilic Esophagitis patients.
An open-label phase 1b study to assess the safety and exploratory diagnostic performance of the oral radiopharmaceutical agent NDX-3315 and NDX-3324 in healthy participants and patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic inflammatory esophagus disease that is presented in patients with a history of recurrent dysphagia. EoE is closely related to other pathologies with an immuno-allergic etiopathogenesis such as atopic dermatitis (AD), IgE-mediated food allergy, allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma. While the importance of the correlation between diet and food allergy has been largely demonstrated, less is known about the exact role of sensitization to aerollergens in the progression and recrudescence of symptoms. In support of this correlation there is evidence of a seasonal trend in the new diagnoses of EoE, of the possibility of the de-novo onset of the pathology following massive exposure to a specific aeroallergen and the demonstration that the degree of esophageal eosinophilia varies according to the climatic zone and the season of the year. The detailed knowledge of this correlation could clarify some aspects of the etiopathogenesis and natural history of EoE, improve and personalize the clinical-diagnostic management of affected patients and provide new therapeutic targets. Our aim is evaluating the possible existence of a correlation between the recrudescence of dysphagia symptoms and a specific month of the year and/or specific season.
Previous studies have confirmed the great potential of quantitative fluorescence molecular endoscopy (qFME) when looking at additional lesion detection initially missed by high-definition white light endoscopy (HD-WLE) for surveillance of Barrett's esophagus.
In many chronic conditions adherence to long-term treatment is a challenge, also for patients with eosinophilic esophagitis. Interventions, such as behavioral, educational and reminder interventions might improve treatment adherence. With this trial the investigators want to assess the effects of additional education in combination with more frequent follow up and patient reminders on adherence to treatment in adult patients with eosinophilic esophagitis.
Using confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE), gastrointestinal allergic reactions to certain foods in the duodenum will be evaluated on a cellular level. After that, a personalized exclusion diet will be followed based on the CLE results for 6 weeks, sham-controlled, in a cross-over fashion. Gastroscopy with esophageal biopsies will be repeated after each diet.
The purpose of the study is to explore options for preventing and reducing symptoms of radiation esophagitis (RE). The researchers will also look what symptoms participants experience, and whether there are differences in weight loss in participants.
