Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The investigators will determine the prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) and importantly determine the predictors of response to Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) therapy in EoE. Moreover, the investigators will determine the effect of GERD on the location of esophageal eosinophilia.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Prevalence of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease [24 hour]

      Prevalence of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) in Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) Description: The definition of GERD is acid exposure time of >4.2% over 24 hour period, as measured by pH monitoring.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Heartburn/regurgitation [30 day]

      Heartburn/regurgitation (as measured by:) Mayo Dysphagia Questionnaire - 30 Day Validated 28 item instrument; 0 = no dysphagia, higher levels indicate greater dysphagia severity. Dysphagia. 2010 Sep;25(3):221-30 Measured by "units on a scale"

    2. Abnormal 24 hour acid exposure [24 hour]

      Abnormal 24 hour acid exposure (as measured by pH monitoring) Description: A thin plastic catheter is passed through one nostril, down the back of the throat, and into the esophagus as the patient swallows. The tip of the catheter contains a sensor that senses acid. The catheter protruding from the nose is connected to a recorder that registers each reflux of acid. The catheter is in place for 24 hours, when is removed and the recorder is attached to a computer so that the data can be downloaded.

    3. Ratio of distal/proximal mean esophageal eosinophil number [6 weeks]

      Ratio of distal/proximal mean esophageal eosinophil number (as measured by biopsies taken during esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD))

    4. Mean distal eosinophil number [6 weeks]

      Mean distal eosinophil number (as measured by biopsies taken during esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) )
