Study typeDiagnostic
Scientific title
Study acronymETMIC
Study objectivesEndoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging (ETMI) improves the detection of early neoplasia in Barrett's oEsophagus (BE).
Ethics approval(s)Approval received from the Medical Ethical Commission of the Academic Medical Centre on the 18th January 2007 (ref: MEC 06/292).
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedBarrett's oesophagus, autofluorescence imaging, narrow band imaging
InterventionIn this study we will compare diagnostic endoscopy techniques for the detection of early neoplasia in Barrett's oesophagus. These techniques are Standard Video Endoscopy (SVE) (the current standard) and Endoscopic Tri-Modal Imaging (ETMI).

Patients will undergo two consecutive endoscopies in an interval of 8 to 12 weeks. One of the two aforementioned techniques will be randomly assigned to the first procedure; the second procedure will subsequently be performed with the other technique by a second endoscopist.

The primary outcome will be the number of lesions and patients with early neoplasia detected with standard video endoscopy and ETMI.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. The number of patients and the number of lesions with early neoplasia detected with SVE and ETMI
2. The number of patients with early neoplasia detected with targeted biopsies only with ETMI and SVE
Secondary outcome measures1. The sensitivity and Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of High-Resolution Endoscopy (HRE) and Autofluorescence Imaging (AFI)
2. The reduction of false positive findings after Narrow Band Imaging (NBI)
3. Negative predictive value of the combination of HRE and AFI and the reduction in false negative findings after

Key inclusion criteria1. Aged greater than 18 years
2. Prior diagnosis of BE defined as the presence of columnar lined epithelium in the tubular oesophagus with specialised intestinal metaplasia on histological investigation
3. Prior diagnosis of high-grade dysplasia or early cancer that was endoscopically inconspicuous according to the referring physician. Review of the pathology slides is not required for inclusion

2. Description of an endoscopically visible suspicious lesion in the Barrett's segment in the referring centre
3. Presence of conditions precluding histological sampling of the oesophagus (e.g. oesophageal varices, coagulation disorders, anticoagulant therapy)
