  • Assessing Esophageal Function and Remodeling With Dupilumab Compared With Placebo for 24 Weeks Followed by 104 Weeks Open Label in Adult Participants With EoE (REMOdeling With Dupilumab in Eosinophilic Esophagitis Long-term Trial)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    This is parallel, Phase 4 study which consists of a 24 week (0.5 years) randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, 2-arm treatment period followed by an open label segment of 104 weeks (2 years) for a total of 128 weeks (2.5 years) to evaluate the effect of dupilumab treatment on esophageal function, and remodeling in adults with eosinophilic esophagitis. Duration of study period (per participant) - Screening period: Up to 12 weeks before Week 0 - Randomized double-blind period: 24 weeks - Open label period: 104 weeks - Post Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) intervention follow-up period: up to 12 weeks or until the participants switch to commercialized dupilumab, whatever comes first. There will be ten (10) site visits, and five (5) direct-to-participant IMP delivery visits (except if prohibited by local regulatory authorities or if participant is not willing. In this case, IMP will be dispensed at the study site).

  • Learn How Well Dupilumab Works in Adult and Adolescent Participants With Eosinophilic Gastritis With or Without Eosinophilic Duodenitis and the Side Effects it May Have

    open to eligible people ages 12 years and up

    This study is researching an experimental drug called dupilumab. The study is focused on participants with active eosinophilic gastritis (EoG) with or without eosinophilic duodenitis (EoD). Participants with EoD only are not eligible for enrollment. EoG and EoD are uncommon, persistent, allergic/immune diseases in which eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) gather in large numbers in the stomach and small intestine and cause inflammation and damage. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of dupilumab on relieving EoG (with or without EoD) symptoms and reducing inflammation in the stomach and, if applicable, small intestine in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older after at least 24 weeks (about 6 months) and up to 52 weeks (1 year) of treatment. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from taking the study drug - How much study drug is in the blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects)

  • Dupilumab on the Muscle Function of the Esophagus (food Pipe) in Participants with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)

    open to eligible people ages 22 years and up

    The goal of this study is to research Dupilumab, an FDA approved medication in treating patients diagnosed with Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). The drug works by controlling allergic inflammation of the esophagus. The esophagus is a food pipe that transfers food from the mouth into the stomach. Participants with EoE have dysfunction of the muscle of the esophagus (impaired peristalsis) that is not favorable for the transport function. Main question this study aims to answer is: Whether Dupilumab helps improve muscle activity of the esophagus in participants with EOE? Participants will: Take Dupilumab every week for 12 weeks. Visit the clinic before and after starting the medication. Keep a diary of symptoms.

  • Characteristics and Inflammatory Markers in Children with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)

    open to eligible people ages 1-65

    Single center observational and specimen banking study for children with eosinophilic esophagitis EoE to gauge natural history and inflammatory markers

  • OMEGA: Outcome Measures in Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders Across the Ages

    open to eligible people ages 3 years and up

    The purpose of this observational study is to find the best measures to define how well a person with eosinophilic disorder is doing. People with EoE, EoG, EoN and EoC normally undergo endoscopy and/or colonoscopy where cells are collected for microscopic analysis. Treatments are then decided based on how the cells look. We are aiming to compare different tissue components such as inflammatory cell types with clinical symptoms. We want to see if scores on standard questionnaires can give us an idea how well the person is doing.
