Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: TNE Followed by EGDExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Subjects will undergo administration of a transnasal endoscopy (TNE) prior to their scheduled clinically indicated upper endoscopy performed per routine standard of care. Following the procedure, a follow-up phone call will be made during which an impact of events scale related to the subjective distress of each procedure, a preference and acceptance questionnaire, and adverse events related to study participation will be collected.
Group II: Cytosponge, then TNE, followed by EGDExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Subjects will undergo administration of Cytosponge and transnasal endoscopy (TNE) prior to their scheduled clinically indicated upper endoscopy performed per routine standard of care. Following the procedure, a follow-up phone call will be made during which an impact of events scale related to the subjective distress of each procedure, a preference and acceptance questionnaire, and adverse events related to study participation will be collected.
