Trial summary

The ultimate goal of the Barrett's Esophagus Patient Registry is to help develop more effective targeted screening strategies and treatment options for Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). We plan to do by developing a registry that will serve as a platform. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients who have been seen at Massachusetts General Hospital.

Who may be able to join

  • Barrett's (BE): Patients who have Barrett's esophagus (all stages: Barrett's metaplasia, low-grade dysplasia, high-grade dysplasia) based upon standard endoscopic and histologic criteria.
  • Adenocarcinoma (EAC): Patients who have esophageal adenocarcinoma.
  • The control cohort will include patients ages 18 and older with no prior history of BE and EAC. These may include patients who are being seen or have been previously seen at MGH GI Associates for conditions including gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic esophagitis, eosinophilic esophagitis, esophageal motility disorders such as achalasia and nutcracker esophagus.

Who cannot join

  • Inability or unwillingness to provide blood samples.
  • History of known bleeding disorders.
  • Currently awaiting organ transplantation.
  • Having an acute or severe chronic illness such as congestive heart failure or any other condition that would prohibit performing the endoscopy.

About this study

The ultimate goal of the Barrett's Esophagus Patient Registry is to help develop more effective targeted screening strategies and treatment options for Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). We plan to do by developing a registry that will serve as a platform. Examples of analyses could include identifying genetic determinants and biomarkers that predict BE, progression of BE to EAC, as well as the response to therapies.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma

    Measured: 5 years (on average although follow-up will continue)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Identify and validate genetic determinants that predict progression of BE to EAC and predict response to BE therapy

    Measured: 5 years on average

  2. Evaluate the natural history of BE with and without treatment based on clinical, functional and economic outcomes of the cases

    Measured: 5 years on average

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Barrett Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, run by Massachusetts General Hospital at 1 site in United States.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Katherine Perzan, BA (617-726-1431, kperzan@partners.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma (time frame: 5 years (on average although follow-up will continue)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Jan 2013.
