Trial summary

Nine to 30% of the population suffers from gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) - suggestive symptoms (heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, chronic couch, sore throat). Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is usually the first line treatment. However 20 to 60% of patients have persistent symptoms on proton pump inhibitor. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Diagnostic Performances of Esophageal Post Prandial High Resolution Impedance- Manometry (HRIM) in Patients With Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Resistant to Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) Treatment : Pilot Study (MHR POST-PRANDIALE)

Nine to 30% of the population suffers from gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) - suggestive symptoms (heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, chronic couch, sore throat). Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is usually the first line treatment. However 20 to 60% of patients have persistent symptoms on proton pump inhibitor. Complementary examinations are then required to determine the cause of persistent symptoms (non compliance to treatment, persistent esophageal acid exposure despite proton pump inhibitor, non acid reflux, reflux hypersensitivity, functional symptoms, rumination syndrome…). The gold standard to detect reflux episodes in patients on proton pump inhibitor therapy is 24-h ambulatory esophageal pH-impedance monitoring. Esophageal High Resolution Impedance-Manometry might help to determine gastro-esophageal reflux disease mechanisms especially when performed post prandially. Further some publications demonstrated that the number of reflux episodes detected during the post prandial period might be well correlated to the total number of reflux episodes recorded during 24 h.

The hypothesis of this study is that 1-hour post prandial esophageal High Resolution Impedance-Manometry might be useful to diagnose gastro-esophageal reflux disease and can replace in some instances 24-h esophageal pH-impedance monitoring. Therefore the aim is to compare the number of reflux episodes detected with esophageal High Resolution Impedance-Manometry performed during 1-h post prandial period to the total number of reflux episodes detected during 24-h ambulatory esophageal pH-impedance monitoring.

What participants receive

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

  • Correlating the number of reflux episodes detected on 1-h post prandial esophageal high resolution manometry combined and those detected on ambulatory 24-h pH-impedance monitoring performed on PPIOther

    Esophageal high resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) consists of introducing a transnasal probe to record esophageal contractility (manometry), bolus transit (impedance) but also the occurrence of reflux episodes. Ambulatory 24-h pH-impedance monitoring consists of recording the occurrence of reflux episodes by introducing a transnasal catheter into the esophagus. After inserting the transnasal HRIM probe and the pH-impedance catheter, both HRIM and 24-h pH-impedance recordings are started. The patient is instructed to eat a meal that induces reflux symptoms (the patient brings his own meal). One hour the end of the meal, the HRIM probe is removed. The patient is discharged at home and the 24-h pH-impedance monitoring is continued. The patient is coming back 24-h after catheter insertion to stop the pH-impedance recording and remove the catheter.

Patients with GERD symptoms refractory to PPI therapyPatients with proven GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease) off PPI (proton pump inhibitor) (Los Angeles grade B, C or D esophagitis and/or esophageal acid exposure > 5% on pH monitoring performed off PPI). These patients have persistent heartburn and/or regurgitation despite double dose proton pump inhibitor. Patients are referred for esophageal high resolution impedance manometry and ambulatory 24-h pH-impedance monitoring on proton pump inhibitor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastro-esophageal Reflux, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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 30 Mar 2023. 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 France. 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?

High Resolution Impedance Manometry (time frame: 1 hour). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 30 Mar 2023.
