About this study

Official title: Outcomes of Children With Eosinophilic Esophagitis: a Prospective Monocentric Observational Study

The investigator would like to create a prospective cohort of patients in order to describe eosinophilic esophagitis with the specificities corresponding to our geographical territory, and to study their evolution at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months.

This study would also enable us to investigate the quality of life of these chronically ill patients

Read the detailed description

The investigator would like to create a prospective cohort of 16 patients included over 2 years in order to determine the rate of complete remission (clinical, endoscopic and histological) at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months of treatment initiation. It is also planned to describe this cohort of pediatric EO patients at inclusion and throughout follow-up, and to study their quality of life.

Follow-up visits is organized every 3 months with a gastropediatrician, who assesses the patient's symptoms (PEESS score) and quality of life (PedsQL eosinophilic esophagitis module and PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales).

If treatment needs to be introduced or changed, a digestive endoscopy with biopsies will be carried out at 3 months to determine whether the patient is in remission or not.

What participants receive

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

  • Digestive endoscopyOther

    Digestive endoscopies are performed in the operative room under general anaesthetic 3 months after the introduction or change of treatment. Biopsies of the upper, middle and lower thirds of the esophagus will be taken and analyzed for pathology.

Study groups in NCT06190080
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Management of eosinophilic esophagitisOtherFollow-up visits are always organized in the same way. A consultation with a gastropediatrician will take place, with assessment of symptoms (PEESS score) and quality of life (PedsQL module for eosinophilic esophagitis and PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales). Then, if treatment needs to be introduced or changed, a digestive endoscopy with biopsies will be carried out at 3 months to determine whether the patient is in remission or not. Depending on the results, the patient may be advised to adapt or maintain the current treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the rate of complete remission

    Complete remission will be defined according to the following criteria:

    1. Abolition of clinical symptoms as assessed by the Pediatric Eosinophilic Esophagitis Symptom Score
    2. Endoscopic score: EoE Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS) ≤ 2 in the lower, middle and upper thirds of the esophagus.
    3. Eosinophilic infiltrate < 5/HPF in standard HES (Haemato-Eosin-Safran) stain on biopsies from lower, middle and upper thirds of esophagus
    4. No therapeutic change at follow-up visit to assess remission

    Measured: at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months from treatment initiation.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Description at inclusion of a cohort of pediatric patients with OE

    The description of the population will be carried out at baseline and during a 24 months follow-up at each consultation (M3, M6, M12, M18 and M24) by the patient's referring physician, listing :

    • demographic (age, gender, lifestyle) and medical (history, allergies, etc.) data at baseline only
    • Clinical data (types of symptoms, possible complications, etc.)
    • Paraclinical data (endoscopic and anapathic scores at diagnosis)

    Measured: throught a 24 months follow-up

  2. evolution of quality of life

    Quality of life will be measured using the Pediatric Quality of Life Questionnaire (PedsQL Eosinophilic Esophagitis part ) currently being validated in French by our team.

    The PedsQL eosinophilic eosophagitis module is divided into several forms, each corresponding to different age groups with questions adapted according to age. (2-4 years, 5-7 years, 8-12 years and 13-18 years). This questionnaire is intended for children and their parents.

    The total score is the sum of the 35 items for 8-17 year olds, 22 for 2-4 year olds, 27 for 5-7 year olds. The maximum score is 175 for 8-17 year olds, 110 for 2-4 year olds, 135 for 5-7 year olds. The higher the score, the greater the impact of eosinophilic esophagitis on the patient's life.

    Nevertheless, we will also use a more general quality-of-life questionnaire, the PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales in its French version.

    Measured: at diagnosis, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Digestive endoscopy in people with Esophagitis, Eosinophilic, run by Fondation Lenval 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 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determine the rate of complete remission (time frame: at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months from treatment initiation.). 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?
