Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if nitrates and IL-8 (which are found in food and throughout the body regulating stomach acidity) play a role in Barrett's Esophagus and/or Esophageal Adenocarcinoma severity and if screening for these biomarkers can help predict patients that are more at risk for developing… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Association Between Nitrates, Nitrosylated Proteins, and Interleukin-8 in Barrett's Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

The purpose of this study is to determine if nitrates and IL-8 (which are found in food and throughout the body regulating stomach acidity) play a role in Barrett's Esophagus and/or Esophageal Adenocarcinoma severity and if screening for these biomarkers can help predict patients that are more at risk for developing worsening disease.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04642690
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1-NSEPatients found to have grossly normal squamous epithelium during endoscopy
Group 2-EEGPatients found to have grossly apparent erosive esophagitis >1cm with Los Angeles Classification A-D
Group 3-NDBE ShortPatients with non-dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus (NDBE) > 1cm (Short Segment)
Group 4-NDBE LongPatients with non-dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus (NDBE) > 1cm (Long Segment)
Group 5Barrett's Esophagus (BE) with high-grade dysplasia (HGD) or esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC)
Group 6-EsophagectomyPatients undergoing resection of esophageal cancer
Group -7 Pilot and FeasibilityPatients undergoing EGD with NSE, NDBE, BE-HGD, or EAC for feasibility of analytical techniques

What is being measured

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

  1. Nitrate Levels

    Nitrate levels in serum, saliva and tissue in patients with normal squamous epithelium, erosive esophagitis, non-dysplastic BE (NDBE), and BE with high-grade dysplasia (HGD) or EAC

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Serum and Tissue Biomarkers

    Levels of IL-8 in patients diagnosed BE dysplasia and EAC

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Biomarkers and disease progression

    Level of IL-8 in serum and tissue in patients with NDBE that progressed to BE

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Barrett Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, run by Mayo Clinic 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 1 inclusion and 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Dec 2022. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: could not collect adequate samples). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Nitrate Levels (time frame: 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 15 Dec 2022.
