Trial Title: Itraconazole to Prevent Recurrent Barrett's Esophagus

NCT ID: NCT05609253

Condition: Barrett Oesophagitis With Dysplasia

Conditions: Official terms:
Barrett Esophagus
Esophagitis
Itraconazole
Hydroxyitraconazole

Conditions: Keywords:
Barrett's esophagus

Study type: Interventional

Study phase: Phase 1

Overall status: Active, not recruiting

Study design:

Allocation: Randomized

Intervention model: Single Group Assignment

Intervention model description: The primary purpose is to determine the ideal formulation (capsule versus solution) of itraconazole in this short-term pilot study.

Primary purpose: Prevention

Masking: None (Open Label)

Intervention:

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Itraconazole in capsule form
Description: Patients with high-risk BE will receive two weeks of itraconazole in the capsule form (N=5).
Arm group label: Itraconazole in capsule form

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Itraconazole in solution form
Description: Patients with high-risk BE will receive two weeks of itraconazole in the solution form (N=5).
Arm group label: Itraconazole in solution form

Summary: Recurrent Barrett's esophagus (BE) that occurs at the rate of 12.4%/year is the Achilles heel of the endoscopic treatment of high-risk BE. Over time, after eradication, BE ultimately recurs in as many as 30-50% of the patients putting them at risk for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), thereby undoing the benefits of an effective initial therapy. Also, recurrences need retreatments that increase costs and complications including strictures and refractory ulcerations. A therapy to prevent recurrent BE does not currently exist. Itraconazole with its ability to inhibit important molecular pathways related to BE development could enhance the long-term effectiveness of endoscopic eradication of high-risk BE, thereby promoting a long-term cure

Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: - Patients with Barrett's esophagus with either confirmed low-grade dysplasia or high grade dysplasia or intramucosal/T1 adenocarcinoma (see histologic review) being considered for endoscopic treatment.
