Official Title: Assessment of a Minimally Invasive Collection Device for Molecular Analysis of Esophageal Samples for the Non-endoscopic Detection of Barrett's Esophagus With and Without Dysplasia
Brief Summary:
This clinical trial evaluates the use of cytosponge, a minimally invasive collection device, for the detection of Barrett's esophagus (BE) in patients undergoing endoscopy.Non-endoscopic swallowable encapsulate sponge cell collection devices combined with markers for BE/esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) detection are a guideline-endorsed alternative to endoscopy for BE screening.The Oncoguard registered trademark Esophagus test (OGE) test uses esophageal cytology specimens collected with a minimally…
