Summary

This trial will compare the effectiveness of a combination of two drugs versus one of the drugs alone in treating Eosinophilic Esophagitis. The success of the treatment will be measured by the number of a certain type of white blood cell in the esophageal tissue.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Fluticasone and omeprazoleExperimental Treatment6 Interventions
These patients will be prescribed swallowed fluticasone and omeprazole to be taken together for the 8 week period. Dosing will be based on weight and age. Primary outcome measure will be the change in esophageal biopsy histology, or number of eosinophils per high powered field, from week 0 to week 8. Secondary outcomes will include changes in the following variables between week 0 and 8: eotaxin staining of the esophageal biopsy tissue, endoscopic scoring from photos of the esophagus obtained during endoscopy, and symptom scoring based on surveys.
Group II: Fluticasone and placeboPlacebo Group6 Interventions
These patients will be prescribed swallowed fluticasone and a placebo medication that appears identical to omeprazole to be taken together for an 8 week period. Dosing will be based on weight and age. Primary outcome measure will be the change in esophageal biopsy histology, or number of eosinophils per high powered field, from week 0 to week 8. Secondary outcomes will include changes in the following variables between week 0 and 8: eotaxin staining of the esophageal biopsy tissue, endoscopic scoring from photos of the esophagus obtained during endoscopy, and symptom scoring based on surveys.
