Overview
Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the C2 CryoBalloon™ Full and Swipe Ablation Systems for the ablation of human esophageal epithelium in patients scheduled to undergo esophagectomy for reasons unrelated to the objective of the study
Detailed Description
The primary outcomes for the study are the safety and treatment effect of the C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation System. An esophagectomy will be performed as scheduled following the ablation procedure; histopathological analysis of surgically-resected specimens will be performed.
Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Minimum of one 3cm area of non-ulcerated columnar-lined esophagus or squamous-lined tissue suitable for ablation
- •Older than 18 years of age
- •Requires a clinically necessary esophagectomy for esophageal cancer or other indications.
Exclusion Criteria
- •Patient has esophageal narrowing limiting access to the intended sites of ablation
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Safety of the CryoBalloon™ Full and Swipe Ablation System
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Number of participants with serious, device-related adverse events after treatment with the CryoBalloon™ Swipe Ablation System
Effect of Ablation to Submucosa at Different Depth of Tissue Ablation Using the CryoBalloon™ Full and Swipe Ablation Systems
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Evaluated by depth and uniformity of ablation effect in the esophagus based on histopathologic assessment. Dose response by effect of ablation to submucosa: 0: Normal 1. Inflammatory cell infiltration 2. Separation with inflammation 3. Edema and Necrosis
Secondary Outcomes
- Device Performance: Average Procedure Time(Minutes from start to end of procedure)
- Device Performance: Ease of Deployment of Device(Minutes, from start to end of procedure)
