BEST-RPP Pilot: Screening for Esophageal Cancer in Rural Oregon Without an Endoscopy (NCT06335966)
Barrett's Esophagus Screening Towards Rural Referral Pathways: Screening for Esophageal Cancer in Rural Oregon Without Endoscopy
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Recent advancements in swallowable esophageal cell-collection devices (SECD) offer a safe, minimally invasive, accurate, and low-cost alternative to esophageal screening without the need for an upper endoscopy. The BEST-RPP study aims to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of using this novel approach to screen for Barrett's Esophagus (BE) and Esophageal Carcinoma (EAC) in rural primary care clinic settings in Oregon.
