Compare watchful waiting vs endoscopy treatment for Barrett’s with low-grade dysplasia
This trial compares two approaches for people with Barrett’s esophagus and low-grade dysplasia: regular monitoring versus treatment done through an endoscopy. It aims to see which approach is safer and better at preventing progression to more serious changes in the esophagus.

TIF surgery after successful Barrett’s ablation
This trial looks at outcomes after a procedure called TIF to help control reflux after Barrett’s esophagus has been fully treated with endoscopic ablation. You might benefit if you still have abnormal acid reflux and want an option other than lifelong acid-suppressing medication.

Study genes in Barrett’s esophagus and esophageal cancer
This study looks at genetic (inherited) factors that may be linked to Barrett’s esophagus and esophageal cancer. It may help researchers understand why these conditions happen in some families and others do not.

Detecting Barrett's esophagus in people without heartburn
This study aims to screen for Barrett's esophagus in people who are getting a routine colonoscopy but do not have chronic heartburn. It uses a simple, non-invasive cell collection device (EsoCheck) to see if you might have Barrett's esophagus, which can increase the risk of esophageal cancer.

Capsule test during endoscopy to find early esophageal cancer
This trial studies an “EsophaCap” capsule that can be swallowed during an endoscopy to help detect early esophageal cancer. It may help find cancer earlier and guide next steps, if your results are concerning.

Heartburn registry for long-term symptom and care follow-up
This registry enrolls people with GERD (chronic heartburn/reflux) to track symptoms and treatments over time for up to 5 years. It may help researchers understand what works best in everyday care, and you’ll be asked to complete check-in surveys.

What taking part in a barrett esophagus study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
