Clinical Trial Summary

This clinical trial studies whether esophageal cytology plus fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is equal to or better than esophago-gastro-duodenoscopy (EGD) or upper endoscopy for the early detection of esophageal cancer. Genes are the units of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) the chemical structure carrying genetic information that determine many human characteristics. Certain genes in cancer cells may determine how the tumor grows or spreads and how it may respond to different drugs. Part of this study is to test those genes in esophageal cells using FISH.


Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine if sponge cytology with FISH is a reliable screening tool for esophageal dysplasia/cancer, and determine its sensitivity and specificity, compared to the gold standard procedure (upper endoscopy).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine if the cytology screening with FISH biomarkers is more cost effective than upper endoscopy for the screening of esophageal cancer and the surveillance of esophageal metaplasia and dysplasia.

II. Determine the limitations and future needs to improve this technique.

OUTLINE:

Participants swallow the capsule (Oesotest from Actimed) and then wait 10 minutes before the sponge is pulled out through the esophagus by gentle traction on the string. Cytology samples from the sponge are harvested and analyzed by FISH. Participants then undergo standard EGD or upper endoscopy.

Eligibility Inclusion Criteria:

- Subjects with known esophageal cancer diagnosed by previous endoscopy

- Adenocarcinoma

- Subjects with esophageal varices

- Subjects unable to provide consent

- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Sensitivity of Sponge Cytology Using FISH All processed (FISH) esophageal cells will be compared to the final pathologic esophageal diagnoses determined by EGD or surgical resection to assess the test's sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of esophageal cancer. Using EGD diagnostic outcomes as the gold standard, the sensitivity and specificity will be computed with corresponding 95% confidence interval of the FISH sponge cytology test in the study population. At the time of sponge cytology and EGD
Primary Specificity of Sponge Cytology Using FISH All processed (FISH) esophageal cells will be compared to the final pathologic esophageal diagnoses determined by EGD or surgical resection to assess the test's sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of esophageal cancer. Using EGD diagnostic outcomes as the gold standard, the sensitivity and specificity will be computed with corresponding 95% confidence interval of the FISH sponge cytology test in the study population. At the time of sponge cytology and EGD
Secondary Adverse Events Associated With FISH Sponge Cytology Using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.0 Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize all adverse events associated with FISH sponge cytology test. At the time of sponge cytology procedure
Secondary Tolerability of FISH Spongy Cytology Tolerability is defined as the patient's willingness to repeat procedure. After completion of FISH and EGD
