About this study

Official title: The Role of Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging in Distinguishing Functional Dyspepsia From Reflux Disease

Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging which combines Narrow-band Imaging(NBI), Autofluorescence Imaging (AFI) and White-light Imaging (WLI) could be used to identify the indistinct changes in the gut caused by reflux disease,either acid reflux or bile reflux, which make it possible to differentiate reflux disease from functional dyspepsia (FD).

Read the detailed description

Functional dyspepsia (FD) and acid/bile reflux disease are common. These diseases share similar clinical manifestations. Individuals with functional dyspepsia (FD) often present upper abdominal pain or discomfort, bloating, early satiety, loss of appetite, and no organic factors underlie it. Individuals suffering from acid/bile reflux disease often complain heartburn, upper abdominal burning or discomfort. What is more, there are always no specific changes on traditional endoscopy that can be used to differentiate these diseases (except erosive esophagitis). Though proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) test is frequently applied to confirm the diagnosis of acid reflux disease, but certain amounts of individuals with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) do not show favorable response to PPI test. In order to make a distinction of these diseases, esophageal pH-metry is needed, however it is not always available in most clinics. Recent data showed that new endoscopic technology such as Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging could demonstrate indistinct lesions caused by GERD which are not detectable by standard endoscopy, subsequently improve endoscopic diagnosis of these diseases. In addition, simultaneous analysis of gastric juice can help to determine whether bile reflux is present or not. As it is known, pathologic refluxes underlie not functional dyspepsia but acid/bile reflux disease. Hence, it is hypothesized that Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging in combination with simultaneous analysis of gastric juice could be used to differentiate functional dyspepsia from acid/bile reflux disease.

What participants receive

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

  • Endoscopic Tri-Modal ImagingDevice

    Endoscope that combines white light imaging (WLI) with autofluorescence imaging (AFI) and narrow band imaging (NBI).

  • OmeprazoleDrug

    Also called proton-pump inhibitor (PPI)

    Omeprazole is one kind of proton-pump inhibitors. All participants undergo standard proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) tests for two weeks with Omeprazole, 20mg twice a day.

  • Analysis of gastric juiceOther

    Also called Routine,biochemical, microbiological analysis

    Analysis of gastric juice including routine, biochemical and microbiological analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Numbers of participants with abnormal endoscopic findings and positive Omeprazole tests

    Numbers of participants with abnormal endoscopic findings are used to calculate the diagnostic Value of Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging in Distinguishing Functional Dyspepsia and Reflux Disease, including specificity, sensitivity and accuracy.

    Measured: one month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging, Omeprazole and Analysis of gastric juice in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Dyspepsia, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 19 Jul 2018. 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 China. 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?

Numbers of participants with abnormal endoscopic findings and positive Omeprazole tests (time frame: one month). 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 NCT02685150, which also lists 2 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Jul 2018.
