About this study

This is a single center, single arm, open label observational trial of patients undergoing EGD. The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the ability of physicians to position the NvisionVLE Optical Probe to acquire an image of an area of the esophagus to identify and discriminate abnormal areas of tissue from normal.

Being tested
NvisionVLE Imaging System: NvisionVLE Imaging Console, NvisionVLE Optical Probe and Inflation Accessory Kit

What participants receive

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

  • NvisionVLE Imaging System: NvisionVLE Imaging Console, NvisionVLE Optical Probe and Inflation Accessory KitDevice

    The NvisionVLE Imaging System is indicated for use as an imaging tool in the evaluation of human tissue microstructure, including esophageal tissue microstructure, by providing two-dimensional, cross-sectional, real-time depth visualization.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint will be the number of patients achieving a VLE (volumetric laser endomicroscopy) image that includes stomach, gastro esophageal junction (GEJ) and esophagus.

    Achieving a VLE image is defined as completing a full 6cm scan. This will be presented as a percentage of patients.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The evaluation of procedural workflow and physician interface to the NvisionVLE Imaging Console.

    Procedural workflow and physician interface to the console will be assessed by a questionnaire that will be completed by the investigational staff involved in the procedure.

    Measured: 1 day

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The primary endpoint will be the number of patients achieving a VLE (volumetric laser endomicroscopy) image that includes stomach, gastro esophageal junction (GEJ) and esophagus. (time frame: 1 day). 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 26 Mar 2014.
