Barrett's esophagus

The primary objectives are to evaluate the feasibility of oral administration of bevacizumab-800CW and cetuximab-800CW with quantified fluorescence molecular endoscopy (qFME) for detection of neoplasia in Barrett's esophagus (BE) patients compared to high-definition white-light endoscopy (HD-WLE) to shorten the qFME pr…

Main objective

Scope: Safety, Diagnosis, Dose response

The primary objectives are to evaluate the feasibility of oral administration of bevacizumab-800CW and cetuximab-800CW with quantified fluorescence molecular endoscopy (qFME) for detection of neoplasia in Barrett's esophagus (BE) patients compared to high-definition white-light endoscopy (HD-WLE) to shorten the qFME procedure and test whether combined tracer administration further increases lesion detection.

Secondary objectives 3

  1. To collect safety data on oral administration of (combined) bevacizumab-800CW and cetuximab-800CW.
  2. To (semi)quantify and evaluate the in vivo near-infrared fluorescent signal of bevacizumab-800CW and cetuximab-800CW combined by using the spectroscopy probe and compare this to the ex vivo vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA)/epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) levels in the resected mucosal lesions and/or biopsies taken.
  3. Eventually further specify and objectify the improvement of qFME by standardization and tracer administration, by dose optimization, leading to reduction of unnecessary biopsies
