研究概览
简要总结
This pilot phase II trial studies how well ursodiol works in treating patients with Barrett esophagus or cells that look abnormal under a microscope but are not cancer (low-grade dysplasia). Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of ursodiol may keep cancer for forming in patients with Barrett esophagus or low-grade dysplasia.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the ability of UDCA (ursodiol) treatment to reverse oxidative deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage in the esophageal epithelium of subjects with Barrett's esophagus.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the effects of UDCA treatment on gastric bile acid composition and on cell proliferation in Barrett's epithelium.

结局指标
主要结局
Reversal of Oxidative DNA Damage as Assessed by Changes in 8-hydroxy-2' -Deoxyguanosine (8OHdG) Immunostaining
时间窗: Baseline to 6 months
8OHdG will be assessed by percentage of positively stained nuclear area. A paired t-test at a one-sided 0.05 significance level will be used to assess change during intervention. The observed results will be reported along with the corresponding confidence intervals.
次要结局
- Changes in Gastric Bile Acid Composition (Change in Percent of Total Bile Acid Present as Ursodeoxycholic Acid and Its Glycine/Taurine Conjugates) Measured by Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry, From Baseline to Post-intervention(Baseline and 6 months)
- Changes in Gastric Bile Acid Composition (Change in Percent of Total Bile Acid Present as Deoxycholic Acid and Its Glycine/Taurine Conjugates) Measured by Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry, From Baseline to Post-intervention(Baseline and 6 months)
- Changes in Cell Proliferation in BE Epithelium From Baseline to Post-intervention as Assessed by Proliferation-related Ki-67 Antigen (Ki67) Immunostaining, Percentage of Positively Stained Nuclei, in BE Tissue Sections(Baseline and 6 months)
