4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study compares two treatments for Idiopathic Esophagogastric Junction Outflow Obstruction: pneumatic dilation compared with expectant management, on symptoms and liquid barium emptying exams.
The investigators aim to ascertain the effects of hiatal hernia repair and fundoplication on the distensibility of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) as measured by FLIP topography/impedance planimetry. The investigators also aim to assess for any correlation between values of EGJ distensibility and GERD related quality of life (QOL) and dysphagia scores.
This research is being done to study an endoscopic procedure called "POEM" as a less invasive alternative to surgery in people with esophagogastric junction outlet obstruction (EGOO).
Determine the time to progression for the combination of erlotinib and bevacizumab in patients with previously treated metastatic cancer of the esophagus or gastroesophageal junction
