简要总结
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF) performed with EsophyX as compared to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy for the treatment of chronic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) patients with refractory symptoms on Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).
详细描述
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of TIF performed with EsophyX as compared to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy for the treatment of chronic GERD patients with medically refractory GERD symptoms other than heartburn.
Primary hypothesis: TIF will be superior to PPIs in eliminating or significantly improving daily bothersome GERD symptoms and/or troublesome regurgitation, if present, at 6-month follow-up. Secondary hypotheses: TIF will be superior to PPIs in eliminating or significantly improving daily bothersome GERD symptoms and/or troublesome regurgitation, if present, at 12-, 24-, 36-, 48- and 60-month follow-up. The majority of surgical patients will have normalized or 50% improved esophageal acid exposure compared to baseline at 6-month follow-up. The majority of surgical patients will be completely off PPIs at 6-, 12-, 24-, 36-, 48- and 60-month follow-up compared to baseline. The majority of crossover patients will be completely off PPIs at 6-, 18-, 30-, 42- and 54-month follow-up compared to baseline. A statistically greater proportion of crossover patients treated with TIF will be free of daily bothersome symptom(s) or will experience clinically significant improvement at 6-, 18-, 30-, 42- and 54-month follow-up.

研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment Arm
Transoral incisionless esophago-gastric fundoplication using the EsophyX system with SerosaFuse fasteners (EndoGastric Solutions, Inc., Redmond, WA, USA) and following TIF2.0 protocol.
干预措施: EsophyX System with SerosaFuse fasteners (Device)
Control
Patients who are dependent upon daily PPIs will continue on single dose twice daily or increase to single dose twice daily for the first six months of the clinical trial. Patients will be offered TIF crossover procedure upon completion of month-6 follow-up visit.
干预措施: PPI (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants Reporting GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) Symptom Elimination or Clinically Significant Improvement Evaluated by RSI (Reflux Symptom Index) and RDQ (Reflux Disease Questionnaire).
时间窗: 6 months
Elimination or clinically significant improvement in GERD symptoms, other than heartburn, refractory to PPI, evaluated by Reflux Symptom Index (RSI):9-item questionnaire measures atypical symptoms: hoarseness, throat clearing, excess throat mucus, dysphagia, cough. Scale for each item ranges from 0 (no problem) to 5 (severe), with max total score of 45, normality threshold of ≤13. Reflux Disease Questionnaire (RDQ):12-item questionnaire to assess frequency and severity of heartburn (4 items measure frequency/severity of pain and burning behind breastbone), regurgitation (4 items measure frequency/severity of acid taste in mouth and movement of material upward from stomach), and dyspeptic complaints (4 items measure frequency and severity of pain or burning in upper stomach). Responses from 0 (not present) to 5 (daily) for frequency and 0 (not present) to 5 (severe) for severity. Scores calculated as mean of item responses with higher scores indicating more severe or frequent symptoms.
Number of Participants Reporting Elimination of Daily Troublesome Regurgitation Using a Validated Questionnaire for Assessment
时间窗: 6 months
Elimination or clinically significant improvement in troublesome regurgitation refractory to PPIs as evaluated by the disease-specific and validated instrument, Reflux Disease Questionnaire (RDQ):12-item questionnaire assesses frequency and severity of heartburn (4 items measure frequency and severity of pain and burning behind breastbone), regurgitation (4 items measuring the frequency and severity of acid taste in mouth and movement of material upward from stomach), and dyspeptic complaints (4 items measure frequency and severity of pain or burning in upper stomach). Responses range from 0 (not present) to 5 (daily) for frequency and 0 (not present) to 5 (severe) for severity. Patient's score is calculated as the mean of item responses with higher scores indicating more severe or frequent symptoms. A frequency score of 3 or more and severity score of 2 or more for the regurgitation questions were required to meet the Montreal consensus criteria for troublesome regurgitation.
