About this study

This study will collect data from patients routinely undergoing a endoscopic surveillance and Cellvizio endomicroscopy procedure due to confirmed Barrett's esophagus. The objective is to determine if endomicroscopy images collected using the marketed Cellvizio device may help endoscopists more accurately diagnose, in conjunction with traditional tissue sampling techniques, whether a suspected lesion is malignant or benign.

Read the detailed description

This is a longitudinal observational study were imaging procedures are allocated in a random order to directly address the low sensitivity and specificity of enhanced macroscopic endoscopic imaging devices by determining whether probe-based Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (pCLE), as a supplement to Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) can further improve sensitivity and specificity to a level that would be acceptable to avoid random biopsy, and better direct biopsy of suspicious areas. The study is also addressing pCLE as a supplement to standard white light endoscopy and random biopsy alone. In fact, the study is powered to evaluate per lesion sensitivity and specificity of confocal imaging as applied to lesions identified by white light endoscopy. Therefore, the study addresses the shortcomings of standard white light endoscopy (high number of random biopsies, less than ideal directed biopsy of suspicious areas) and the primary shortcomings of Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) (low specificity with resultant high false positives, again resulting in many unnecessary biopsies).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Imaging procedures (NBI)Device

    Imaging procedures (pCLE) and (NBI) - All patients undergo both procedures back to back by two endoscopists, blinded to each other, in randomized order.

    Procedure 1: Standard endoscopic procedure The patient receives white light endoscopy (WLE) examination. All visible lesions are noted and photographed. No biopsy is taken until both procedures are complete.

    Procedure 2: NBI endoscopic procedure The patient receives a NBI endoscopy examination. All visible and NBI abnormal lesions are noted and photographed.

    After both procedures are complete and all sites are unblinded to both endoscopists. pCLE with Cellvizio and physical biopsies are performed at all sites plus 4 quadrant sites.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Imaging procedures (NBI), HDWLE and pCLE in people with Barrett Syndrome and Barrett's Syndrome, run by Mauna Kea Technologies at 5 sites in 3 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States, France, Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 May 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparative Histopathology-confirmed Measures of Per Lesion Sensitivity and Per Lesion Specificity, by Using pCLE Associated With WLE, or WLE Alone, for the Detection of High Grade Dysplasia and Early Carcinoma in Barrett's Esophagus. (time frame: Centralized histopathology confirmation within 4-6 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00795184, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 May 2016.
