Trial Outcomes & Findings for Spray Cryotherapy for Esophageal Cancer (ICE-CANCER) (NCT NCT01868139)

NCT ID: NCT01868139

Last Updated: 2022-03-07

Results Overview

The primary endpoint is to determine the response rate to spray cryotherapy. It is hypothesized that one of the two following outcomes will occur: 1. Complete response to therapy: complete tumor eradication confirmed through histologic examination of biopsy specimens from the targeted esophageal tissue site; 2. Stable disease: tumor remission is not attained, but disease progression is halted.

Liquid nitrogen spray cryotherapy with the truFreeze device Liquid nitrogen spray cryotherapy with the truFreeze device: Low-pressure liquid nitrogen is sprayed through an upper endoscope on the diseased esophageal tissue to freeze and destroy it. The upper endoscope enables direct visualization of mucosal freeze during spray of the liquid nitrogen onto the mucosa and avoids the need for direct contact with the tissues. The target area is frozen and thawed for several consecutive cycles. The treated tissue becomes necrotic and sloughs, with new, healthy tissue regenerating in its place.
