CBE-001-SEOS: Fully Coated, Removable, Self-expanding Oesophageal Stents for Preventing Strictures Following Complete Barretts Excision.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether preventative placement of a removable oesophageal stent reduces the rate of scar tissue, or stricture formation after removing the precancerous or early cancerous Barrett's mucosa by Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR). The stent will be placed 10-14 days after initial EMR. The stent will then be removed 8 weeks later by repeat Endoscopy. Patients will be followed up weekly following insertion of the oesophageal stent.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Improvement in Stricture Formation [12 weeks]
Initial evaluation of Dysphagia score which is used to assess the stricture formation prior to EMR. Followed by weekly phone calls to assess ability to swallow liquids and food.
