Trial summary

This is a pilot study to test a newly developed optical coherence tomography (OCT) device to determine 1) whether adequate tissue contact can be attained to acquire high quality images, and 2) to identify if these images can discern whether the imaged tissue is squamous or Barrett's Esophagus (BE) epithelium.

About this study

Official title: Advanced Angle-Resolved Low Coherence Interferometry (a/LCI) Systems for Improved Clinical Utility: An Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Pilot Study

This is a pilot study to test a newly developed optical coherence tomography (OCT) device to determine 1) whether adequate tissue contact can be attained to acquire high quality images, and 2) to identify if these images can discern whether the imaged tissue is squamous or Barrett's Esophagus (BE) epithelium.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Imaged Sites Correctly Categorized as Squamous Mucosa

    Percentage of imaged sites correctly categorized by OCT as squamous mucosa when compared to endoscopy.

    Measured: at baseline

  2. Percentage of Imaged Sites Correctly Categorized as Barrett's Mucosa

    Percentage of images site correctly categorized by OCT as Barrett's mucosa when compared to endoscopy.

    Measured: at baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Imaged Sites With Adequate Tissue Contact to Acquire a High Quality Image

    Percentage of imaged sites that achieved adequate tissue contact to acquire high quality OCT images.

    Measured: at baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing optical coherence tomography in people with Barrett Esophagus, run by Duke University at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 3 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 6 Apr 2021. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Apr 2021). 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 Imaged Sites Correctly Categorized as Squamous Mucosa (time frame: at baseline). 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 6 Apr 2021.
