NCT ID: NCT06381583 Completed - Esophageal Cancer Clinical Trials

A Liquid Biopsy for High-risk Pre-cancer Screening of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

EMERALD
Start date: April 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study aims to develop a highly sensitive, specific, and cost-effective blood assay for the early detection of esophageal adenocarcinoma and its precursor lesions, using advanced machine learning and state-of-the-art biological analyses.

NCT ID: NCT02495051 Completed - Clinical trials for Gastroesophageal Reflux

Esophageal Atresia: Metaplasia, Barrett

Oesophagix
Start date: February 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The frequency of Barrett's esophagus (BE) has increased in adults in the last decades, but BE is rare in children. Esophageal atresia (EA), the most common congenital anomaly affecting the esophagus, predisposes the patient to severe and prolonged gastroesophageal reflux disease. Because gastroesophageal reflux disease plays a major role in the development of BE by causing repeated mucosal damage, development of BE is a concern even in children and young adults in this specific population. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of BE (gastric and/or intestinal metaplasia) in a population of adolescents/young adults who had been treated for EA in early infancy. All eligible patients received upper gastrointestinal endoscopy under general anesthesia with standardized esophageal staged biopsies. Histological suspicion of metaplasia was confirmed centrally.
