About this trial
This study will evaluate if the sponge capsule device can accurately detect the presence of Barrett's Esophagus and prevalent dysplasia/adenocarcinoma detection, in a screening population, with and without chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Eligibility criteria
This trial accepts healthy volunteersQualifiers

Patients who have three or more risk factors for Barrett's Esophagus.
Diagnosis
Use of one of the following drugs >= 3 months over the last 5 years: omeprazole, esomeprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole, dexlansoprazole, lansoprazole, ranitidine, famotidine, cimetidine
Disqualifiers
esophageal adenocarcinoma/cancer
esophageal squamous carcinoma
endoscopic ablation for Barrett's esophagus
esophageal squamous dysplasia

Sponge Capsule
DeviceSubjects will swallow sponge capsule and esophageal cells will be collected on deployed sponge.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Aim 1 - Screening Population
To measure the positive and negative predictive value of the sponge capsule Barrett's esophagus test in a screening population.
Aim 2 - Case/Control Population BE Detection
Compare the sensitivity and specificity of a predetermined BE prediction algorithm for those with and without GERD and assess the influence of other covariates (age, sex, ever smoking, ethnicity and BMI) on this algorithm.
Aim 3 - Dysplasia Detection Sensitivity and Specificity
Measure the sensitivity and specificity of a predetermined MDM panel assayed on SOS specimens from BE patients identified in Aims 1 and 2, for the detection of HGD /EAC, using surveillance histology as the criterion standard.
Secondary outcomes
Aim 1 - Screening Population Predictive Value
Compare positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the sponge capsule Barrett's Esophagus test between those with and without chronic GERD.
Aim 1 - Screening Population Safety and Tolerability of sponge capsule procedure
Safety and tolerability of the sponge capsule device in a screening population as measured by a Tolerability Questionnaire with sponge capsule procedure. Participants will rate their tolerability by rating questions using a scale of 0-10 (0 is none and 10 is severe or 0 is good and 10 is not good).
Aim 2 - Case/Control Population Sensitivity and Specificity
Validate specificity and sensitivity cut offs of a BE prediction algorithm in an independent patient cohort
Aim 3 - Dysplasia Detection Rate of Missed Dysplasia
Measure diagnostic uncertainty bias in the criterion standard, specifically, the rate of dysplasia missed by surveillance histology
