Study Summary

Purpose: To determine whether oral viscous budesonide (OVB) or fluticasone metered dose inhaler (MDI) most effectively treats EoE by improving histologic findings and symptoms, which medication provides a more durable treatment response, and whether biomarkers can predict treatment response. Participants: A total of up to 200 16-80 year old patients with a new diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) who are referred for upper endoscopy will be consented with a target of 122 randomized. Procedures: This will be a prospective, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, clinical trial comparing OVB to fluticasone MDI for treatment of EoE. This overall study design will generate data for all three Aims

Primary Outcome

To determine whether viscous budesonide is more effective than fluticasone MDI for improving post-treatment maximum esophageal eosinophil counts (measured in eosinophils per high powered field (eos/hpf)) in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). The mean post-treatment maximum eosinophil count will be compared between the OVB and MDI groups using a two-sample t-test.
