Nitrates and IL-8 in Barrett's Esophagus
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if nitrates and IL-8 (which are found in food and throughout the body regulating stomach acidity) play a role in Barrett's Esophagus and/or Esophageal Adenocarcinoma severity and if screening for these biomarkers can help predict patients that are more at risk for developing worsening disease.

Group -7 Pilot and Feasibility Patients undergoing EGD with NSE, NDBE, BE-HGD, or EAC for feasibility of analytical techniques |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Nitrate Levels [Baseline]
Nitrate levels in serum, saliva and tissue in patients with normal squamous epithelium, erosive esophagitis, non-dysplastic BE (NDBE), and BE with high-grade dysplasia (HGD) or EAC
- Serum and Tissue Biomarkers [Baseline]
Levels of IL-8 in patients diagnosed BE dysplasia and EAC
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Biomarkers and disease progression [Baseline]
Level of IL-8 in serum and tissue in patients with NDBE that progressed to BE
