| 1 | Budeoe lo studio in oggetto è uno Studio pilota monocentrico in aperto di fase II. Il protocollo sperimentale prevede la partecipazione di pazienti pediatrici dai 4 ai 18 anni non compiuti con una diagnosi di esofagite eosinofila (EoE) ovvero di 10 pazienti pediatrici che non abbiano risposto al trattamento con inibitori di pompa protonica o con riacutizzazione dopo la sospensione della stessa.

Eligibility criteria
Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor
Inclusion criteria 5
- Age 4-18 years
- Diagnosis of EoE (>15 eosinophils/HPF in oesophageal biopsies) with failure to respond to proton pump inhibitors or with flare-up after discontinuation of proton pump inhibitors. The diagnosis must have been confirmed by endoscopy with oesophageal, gastric and duodenal biopsies. Subjects with a peak intraepithelial eosinophil count of ≥15/HPF (standard size 0.3 mm2) and no significant gastric or duodenal pathology will be histologically eligible for the study
- Subjects with previous topical steroid therapy (non-response or flare-up after discontinuation)
- Informed written parental/legal representative consent and verbal consent according to the maturity of the child
- Female subjects of childbearing age after urine pregnancy test. Sexual abstinence is an acceptable method of contraception, if in line with the subject's normal habits. The use of contraceptive methods will also be required for the duration of the study. Acceptable contraceptive methods are combined low-dose oral hormonal contraceptives; male or female condom with or without spermicide; male condom hood, diaphragm or sponge with spermicide, a combination of male condom with spermicide hood, diaphragm or sponge with spermicide (double barrier)
Exclusion criteria 16
- Presence of other non-EoE gastrointestinal diseases (e.g. eosinophilic gastroenteritis/colitis, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, or coeliac disease)
- Primary or secondary immune deficiency
- Ongoing chronic or acute infectious diseases (viral, bacterial, parasitic)
- Previous hypersensitivity reactions to budesonide or excipients
- Allergy to nickel, soya, gluten
- Diabetes or other chronic organic diseases
- Oral or oesophageal candidiasis
- Oesophageal stenosis
- Use of steroids (topical or systemic) within 4 weeks of baseline endoscopy, including combined hormonal contraceptives (except low-dose)
- Use of proton pump inhibitors within 2 weeks of baseline endoscopy
- Severe renal failure
- Hepatic failure (Prothrombin time (PT) >15 s or INR >1.5 with evidence of encephalopathy or PT >20 s or INR >2 without encephalopathy)
- Existence of haemorrhagic diathesis, use of anti-coagulant drugs
- Need for topical or systemic steroids for other conditions during the study period
- Current pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Psychiatric conditions that reduce compliance with the protocol
Endpoints
Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)
Primary endpoints 1
