A Single-center Trial of Endoscopic Radiofrequency Ablation of Moderate and High-grade Intra-epithelial Squamous Neoplasia and Early Flat-type Squamous Cell Carcinoma Using the HALO Ablation System
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Radiofrequency Ablation for ESOPHAGEAL SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA. Completed, enrolled 96 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Patients with MGIN, HGIN or flat-type early SCCA of the esophagus will be treated on 3 month intervals with Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) until complete eradication (CR: no MGIN or worse in the biopsies) will be achieved. All patients will undergo an endoscopy at 12 months after baseline, and the patients with CR will undergo annual endoscopy with biopsies for 5 years.
