Trial summary

Narrow-Band Imaging (NBI) is as sensitive as Lugol chromoendoscopy to detect oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and appears more specific than Lugol chromoendoscopy in expert centres but its specificity in current practice is not known. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Narrow-Band Imaging (NBI) Versus Lugol Chromoendoscopy in the Detection of Oesophagus Squamous Cell Carcinoma in High Risk Population: a Randomised Controlled Multicentre Trial

Narrow-Band Imaging (NBI) is as sensitive as Lugol chromoendoscopy to detect oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and appears more specific than Lugol chromoendoscopy in expert centres but its specificity in current practice is not known. This study aimed to prove the superiority of NBI specificity over Lugol chromoendoscopy to detect oesophageal SCC and high-grade dysplasia (HGD) in current practice (including tertiary care centres, local hospitals and private clinics).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of FRENCH STUDY, run by Hôpital Edouard Herriot.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 13 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

SPECIFICITY OF THE TWO DIAGNOSTIC STRATEGIES (time frame: 4 years). 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 NCT04224896, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 Jan 2020.
