简要总结
The overall objective of this study is to determine if there are pyloric sphincter abnormalities in patients with gastroparesis symptoms and determine how prevalent these abnormalities are using tests to assess the pyloric sphincter - endoluminal functional luminal imaging probe (Endoflip™), water load satiety testing (WLST), and high-resolution cutaneous electrogastrography (HR-EGG) using Gastric Alimetry™ System.
详细描述
Study Description: This is a multi-center, prospective, observational study to assess pyloric sphincter abnormalities in patients with symptoms of gastroparesis (both delayed and normal gastric emptying) and control participants without symptoms of gastroparesis using the commercially available, FDA approved endoluminal functional luminal imaging probe (Endoflip™) catheter, which measures diameter, cross-sectional area, pressure, compliance, and distensibility of gastrointestinal sphincter muscles.
This study will assess lower esophageal and pyloric sphincter diameter, CSA, pressure, distensibility, and compliance in patients with symptoms of gastroparesis and delayed gastric emptying, patients with symptoms of gastroparesis but with normal gastric emptying, and normal control participants. The protocol will also include a water load satiety test and use Gastric Alimetry™ System that assesses gastric myoelectrical activity in symptomatic participants but not control participants.

入选标准
- •FOR SYMPTOMATIC PARTICIPANTS:
- •Provision of signed and dated informed consent form.
- •Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study.
- •Male or female, aged 18-85
- •Symptoms of gastroparesis, either diabetic or idiopathic etiology
- •Symptoms of gastroparesis with minimum Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) score of 2.0
- •Individual will have had a prior 4-hour gastric emptying scintigraphy test performed for clinical evaluation within the last 6 months. This gastric emptying test would be done for clinical evaluation and is not part of the research study. From these participants with gastroparesis symptoms, we will include those with delayed gastric emptying as well as those with normal gastric emptying.
- •Participant must not initiate any new treatments until completion of the study procedures.
- •Willingness to:
- •Stop histamine 2 antagonists, prokinetics (e.g., metoclopramide, erythromycin, domperidone, prucalopride), narcotics, anticholinergics, constipation medications (over the counter laxatives, isotonic polyethylene glycol (PEG) electrolyte preparations (e.g. MiraLax), prescription laxatives (e.g. lubiprostone), proton pump inhibitors, cannabinoids, and cannabidiol (CBD) for 3 days prior to each visit;
- •Abstain from food and water after midnight (at least for 8 hours) before the start of each visit until after the visit.
- •INCLUSION CRITERIA FOR CONTROL PARTICIPANTS
- •Provision of signed and dated informed consent form
- •Male or female, aged 18 or older
- •Undergoing an upper endoscopy for their clinical evaluation of diarrhea, GI bleed, or iron-deficiency anemia, or evaluation for bariatric surgery.
- •Do not have upper GI symptoms greater than 1 as assessed by the Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI) of PAGI-SYM questionnaire.
排除标准
- •Prior gut lumen surgery on the esophagus or the stomach, including Nissen fundoplication.
- •Prior surgery on the pylorus (G-POEM, surgical pyloroplasty, surgical pyloromyotomy)
- •Known history of achalasia or esophageal stricture
- •Known history of physiological or mechanical GI obstruction
- •Abnormalities seen on a prior upper endoscopy placing patient at increased risk:
- •Ulcer of the esophagus, stomach, or duodenum
- •Esophageal varices
- •Individuals at risk for prolonging the endoscopy procedure: severe chronic pulmonary disease, severe food retention in the stomach on endoscopy.
- •Presence of significant gastric or duodenal pathology that could be expected to cause dysmotility (e.g. significant inflammation, infiltrate disorders etc)
- •Individuals with a history of other chronic disease potentially causative of gastrointestinal symptom
- •Acute or chronic renal insufficiency
- •Current eating disorders
- •Females who are pregnant. A urine pregnancy test is routinely obtained on all females immediately prior to endoscopic procedures.
- •Individuals with contraindications for endoscopy, including bleeding abnormalities
- •Allergy to eggs preventing sedation with propofol and/or gastric emptying test
- •Significant dysphagia
- •Prior inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's
- •History of any esophageal/gastric/pyloric injection of botulinum toxin
- •Patients on daily opioid use or >3 day/week use
- •Use of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) receptor agonists or Sodium-Glucose Transport Protein 2 (SGLT2); Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)- glucagon-like peptide (GLP) combo

结局指标
主要结局
Distensibility of the pylorus

- Opening diameter (mm) of the pylorus when 50 mL volume is introduced into the EF325N Endoflip™ measurement catheter.(Baseline)
- Cross Sectional Area(mm2) of the pylorus with 40 mL balloon volume(Baseline)
- Cross Sectional Area(mm2) of the pylorus with 50 mL balloon volume(Baseline)
- Compliance (mm3/mmHg) of the pylorus with 40 mL balloon volume(Baseline)
- Compliance (mm3/mmHg) of the pylorus with 50 mL balloon volume(Baseline)
- Pressure (mmHg) of the pyloric sphincter(Baseline)
