Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| ENDPOINTS REAL-TIME IMAGING: 1. Correlation of real-time NBI vs. pCLE with histology; 2. Reduction of the false-positive rate of WLE+AFI with NBI vs. pCLE; ENDPOINTS MOLECULAR ANALYSIS: 1. Correlation of AFI directed biopsies and yield of molecular abnormalities compared to random biopsies; 2. Correlation of AFI patterns and molecular abnormalities in BE; 3. Show that AFI increases detection of molecular markers with greater sensitivity and specificity than EQMI detection of dysplasia. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| ENDPOINTS VIDEO/STILL IMAGE EVALUATION: 1. Sensitivity and specificity for AFI-NBI vs. AFI-pCLE; 2. Accuracy of predicting presence/absence of HGD/EC with NBI vs. pCLE in a blinded manner; 3. Reduction of AFI FP lesions with NBI vs. pCLE; 4. Inter-observer variability in classifying lesions with NBI vs. pCLE, using kappa statistics. | — |
