About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 4 Study to Evaluate the Effect of Dexlansoprazole 60 mg QD and 60 mg BID on Recurrence of Intestinal Metaplasia in Subjects Who Have Achieved Complete Eradication of Barrett's Esophagus With Radiofrequency Ablation

This study is designed to evaluate the effect of dexlansoprazole once daily (QD) and twice daily (BID) dosing on the recurrence of intestinal metaplasia (IM) in participants who achieved complete eradication of Barrett's esophagus (BE) with high-grade dysplasia (HGD) following radiofrequency ablation (RFA).

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called dexlansoprazole. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of 12 months of treatment with dexlansoprazole 60 mg QD or dexlansoprazole 60 mg BID on the recurrence of IM in participants who have achieved complete eradication of intestinal metaplasia (CEIM) and dysplasia (CED) with RFA. The study will enroll approximately 150 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to one of the two treatment groups which will remain undisclosed to the patient and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • Dexlansoprazole 60 mg once a day and placebo (this is a capsule that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient) once a day
  • Dexlansoprazole 60 mg twice a day.

All participants will be asked to take one capsule twice a day at the same time each day throughout the study.

This randomized, double-blind, multi-center, parallel group trial will be conducted in North America. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 13 months. Participants will make 5 visits to the clinic, and will undergo a safety follow-up assessment 30 days after the last dose of study drug.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Recurrence of Intestinal Metaplasia (IM)

    Recurrence of IM was defined as an esophageal biopsy result indicating BE with or without dysplasia.

    Measured: Month 12

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Recurrence of IM With Dysplasia

    Recurrence of IM with dysplasia was defined as an esophageal biopsy result indicating BE with dysplasia.

    Measured: Month 12

  2. Percentage of Participants With Erosive Esophagitis (EE)

    The severity of EE was classified into following grades: Grade A: one or more mucosal breaks no longer than 5 millimeter (mm), none of which extends between the tops of the mucosal folds; Grade B: one or more mucosal breaks more than 5 mm long, none of which extends between the tops of two mucosal folds; Grade C: mucosal breaks that extend between the tops of two or more mucosal folds, but which involve less than 75 percent (%) of the esophageal circumference; Grade D: mucosal breaks which involve at least 75% of the esophageal circumference.

    Measured: Baseline up to Month 12

  3. Change From Baseline in the Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease-Health Related Quality of Life (GERD-HRQL) Total Score

    The GERD-HRQL score consisted of 10 questions, where participants were required to answer each question on a scale of 0 to 5 (0: no symptoms; 1: symptoms noticeable but not bothersome; 2: symptoms noticeable and bothersome but not every day; 3: symptoms bothersome every day; 4: symptoms affect daily activity; 5: symptoms are incapacitating to do daily activities). The total score was derived by simply adding the individual score of each question. The total score ranged from 0 to 50 where a higher score indicated more severe disease. The best possible total GERD-HRQL score was 0 (asymptomatic in all questions) and the worst possible score is 50 (incapacitated in all questions).

    Measured: Baseline and Month 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Dexlansoprazole in people with Barrett's Esophagus, run by Takeda at 6 sites 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 8 inclusion and 23 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 May 2017). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Recurrence of Intestinal Metaplasia (IM) (time frame: Month 12). 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 11 May 2017.
