5 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a feasibility study without a primary study hypothesis or statistical comparison.
This study aims to develop a highly sensitive, specific, and cost-effective blood assay for the early detection of esophageal adenocarcinoma and its precursor lesions, using advanced machine learning and state-of-the-art biological analyses.
Assess Cryoablation (CryoBalloon Ablation cryotherapy) for treatment of Dysplastic Barrett's Esophagus, Esophageal Squamous Dysplasia and early Esophageal Cancer. The cryoablation treatment will be offered as an alternative to standard ablation therapies such as Radiofrequency Ablation, Argon Plasma Coagulation and carbon dioxide Cryotherapy).
The investigators propose a study comparing the morphological and functional aspects of the neosquamous epithelium (NSE) after ablative therapy for dysplastic Barrett's esophagus (BE) to that of native squamous epithelium in normal controls as well as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), non-Barrett's Esophagus (BE) subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a cryoablation technique used to ablate human esophageal mucosa.
