Study Details

Brief summary:

Screening esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD )provides three distinct opportunities to decrease gastric cancer (GC) morbidity and mortality. has potential to discover cancer in early stages before the onset of symptoms, leading to higher rates of survival. Second, premalignant lesions such as adenomatous polyps, intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia can be discovered and removed with local resection, akin to polypectomies during screening colonoscopies, preventing the development of cancer. Third, EGD discovery and treatment of active Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection of the stomach provides an opportunity for primary prevention of GC.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: EGD at time of routine screening colonoscopy

This happens on Day 0. Screening for EGD, biopsy samples from esophagus, stomach, gastrointestinal junction, and duodenum AE's.

Interventions

esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD)

After colonoscopy, the patient will undergo the EGD at which time biopsy specimens will be obtained.

Participants will also be provided with a home stool collection kit which they can bring to the endoscopy visit or mail back. Satisfaction questions will be administered 3-7 days after EGD-SC

Primary outcome measure

  • Acceptability and feasibility of EGD-SC measured by Linear Scale [ Time Frame: Pre-Study Screening Day -30 to day0 ]
