About this study

Official title: Application of hybridAPC in the Treatment of Barrett: a Multicenter, Prospective Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the new technique of HybridAPC in the treatment of Barrett.

Read the detailed description

After thermal ablation of Barrett's esophagus, stricture formation is reported in 5 to over 10% of patients. Submucosal fluid injection prior to ablation may lower the risk of stricture formation. The new technique of HybridAPC which combines submucosal injection with APC is considered to reduce the complication.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
HybridAPCExperimentalThe patient with Barrett's esophagus is treatment by HybridAPC.
Receives: Device: HybridAPC

What is being measured

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

  1. radical rate

    Radical rate was defined as it that after 3 months of treatment, the primary lesion area returning to normal is reconfirmed by pathological diagnosis.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. recurrence

    Recurrence was defined as it that after 3 months of treatment, Barrett's esophagus is reconfirmed by pathological diagnosis in the primary lesion again.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. adverse event

    Adverse event was defined as any device treatment-related adverse event such as bleeding and perforation

    Measured: 1 year

  3. operation time

    Operation time was defined as the time from the beginning of submucosal injection to the final end of ablation.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HybridAPC in people with Barrett's Esophagus, run by Changhai 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Feb 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Dong Wang, M.D (8613816758802, dongwang0901@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

radical rate (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT03418584, which also lists 5 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?
