About this study

Official title: Quality of Life in Barrett's Esophagus and GERD:GERD Symptoms, Perception of Cancer Risk, and Actual Cancer Risk

To Compare the overall quality of life of patients with no Barrett's esophagus , non-dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus (NDBE), Barrett's esophagus with low grade dysplasia (LGD), and Barrett's esophagus with high grade dysplasia (HGD). We also Compare the overall quality of life of Barrett's esophagus patients with severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms to those with no GERD symptoms

Read the detailed description

The presence of GERD symptoms is associated with a significant decrease in quality of life.While a diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus is also associated with a decrease in quality of life, these studies evaluated Barrett's esophagus patients with GERD symptoms.It is unclear whether decrements in quality of life from cancer risk in patients with Barrett's esophagus are due to actual cancer risk or a patient's false perception.Here we Compare the overall quality of life of patients with no Barrett's esophagus , non-dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus (NDBE), Barrett's esophagus with low grade dysplasia (LGD), and Barrett's esophagus with high grade dysplasia (HGD). The Investigators will also Compare the overall quality of life of Barrett's esophagus patients with severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms to those with no GERD symptoms. Finally the investigators will compare the overall quality of life of patients with a perceived low risk of esophageal cancer to those with a perceived high risk of esophageal cancer

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01572974, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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?
