Brief Title: Betrnet Stem Cells and the Origins of Barrett's Esophagus Project 3 RF Ablation
Official Title: Stem Cells And The Origins Of Barrett's Esophagus:Identification Of Novel Biomarkers And Gene Signatures In Barrett's Esophagus
Study ID: NCT01568723
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine biomarkers which can predict response to ablation therapy in patients with Barretts esophagus.
Detailed Description: This Project is designed to identify biologically-based and clinically-useful biomarkers of tissue at risk for neoplastic progression as well as of response to ablation therapy. These results will result in improved risk stratification in BE and better targeting of resources for patients who are candidates for ablative therapy, while simultaneously providing key information regarding the origins of Barrett's esophagus.
