U.S., July 11 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07057986) titled 'Trans-Cervical and Trans-abdominal Ultrasound for Monitoring Esophageal Thickness in Eosinophilic Esophagitis' on June 30.
Brief Summary: Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the esophageal mucosa, leading to symptoms of dysphagia and food impaction. Currently, upper endoscopy with biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis and disease monitoring, but it is invasive, costly, and associated with procedural risks. We want to use ultrasound imaging as a non-invasive assessment of esophageal wall thickness as a surrogate marker for mucosal inflammation.
