IBD Consensus Capsule endoscopy (CE) vs. other imaging: • Limitations • The available data are more evidence based for known, non-stricturing CD than for suspected CD. • No “gold standard” available for CD. • CE is superior to CT enterography & MRI; particularly for proximal - mid small bowel CD. • CE demonstrates mucosal lesions missed by other imaging. • No single test is available for diagnosing CD.
IBD Consensus CE may be useful in the study of indeterminate colitis: • 22 pts with colonic IBD underwent CE. • 9 (40%) with “colitis” were found to have small bowel lesions. • 27 pts with IC underwent CE. • 8 (29%) had small bowel lesions. • 10 pts with IC underwent CE. • 4 (40%) had small bowel lesions.

IBD Consensus • 31 patients with IC and known serology • CE and serology equally sensitive (61%). • CE was more sensitive than ASCA or OMP-C in diagnosing small bowel CD. • Conclusion:CE was superior to CD-like markers in identifying small bowel disease in IC patients. Lo SK, et al., Gastrointest Endosc 2003;57(5):AB 1889
IBD Consensus Role of CE in assessing for early post- operative recurrence • 32 post-op ileocecal resection • CE & ileo-colonoscopy < 6 months • Recurrence: 21/32 – sensitivity • Ileo-colonoscopy 90% vs. 62% for CE • CE identified more proximal disease in 2/3 of cases. • CE may be useful as a first line evaluation of post-operative recurrence due to its good tolerability. Bourreille et al Gut 2006;55:978-983
IBD Consensus Role of CE in assessing for early post-operative recurrence • 14 patients post-op ileocecal resection x 1 yr • CE & small bowel US compared in 13 (1 stricture) • Recurrence: 12/13 by colonoscopy • US: 13/13 ( 1 false +) • CE: 12/13 (all true +) • CE represents an alternative minimally-invasive technique for assessing CD recurrence in patients under follow-up of ileo-colonic resection. Biancone et al; Gastroenterology 2006;130(4):Supp S2: AB S1336
IBD Consensus Capsule endoscopy (CE) for suspected IBD: • Useful and safe in patients with suspected Crohn’s disease and negative endoscopic & small bowel imaging • Evidence: based mainly on retrospective studies; more prospective data needed. • Positive CE findings not well defined (lack of validated scoring index). • Has potential to affect patient management. • Scoring index may provide diagnostic threshold.
Capsule Endoscopy: Are All Ulcers Crohn’s? A B C Which image is an ulcer from Crohn’s disease? The answer is all three. However, patient history will define if another cause, such as NSAID damage or radiation enteropathy caused the ulceration.
IBD Consensus • Standardized CE scoring index of disease severity to differentiate normal from small bowel inflammatory disorders in development. • Correlation of CE index with clinical disease activity scores needed. • CE scoring index may not distinguish between various causes of inflammation (NSAIDs, radiation enteropathy).
Scoring Index Parameters Villous Appearance Ulceration Stenosis Scale Normal, edematous Number - single, few, multiple Distribution - localized, patchy, diffuse Longitudinal extent - short, long, whole segment Ulcer size - based on amount of bowel wall circumference involved Stenosis - ulcerated or not, traversed or not
Example of Score Template Global Disease Assessment: Normal, Mild, Moderate/Severe
Suspected Crohn’s Disease Patients with characteristic GI symptoms of CD (at least 1 from “A”), and with at least one of the criteria under “B”, “C” or “D”: Characteristic GI Symptoms (anti-tTG negative) Chronic abdominal pain Chronic diarrhea Significant weight loss Growth failure Extra-intestinal Symptoms Unexplained recurrent fever Arthritis/arthralgias Pyoderma/erythema nodosum Aphthous stomatitis Perianal disease PSC/recurrent cholangitis Inflammatory Markers Iron deficiency anemia Thrombocytosis or leukocytosis Elevated ESR or CRP Hypoalbuminemia Positive IBD serology Fecal markers: lactoferrin, alpha-1 antitrypsin, calprotectin; heme +; leucocyte + Abnormal, Non-diagnostic Imaging
Suspected SB CD Positive ileocolonoscopy Negative ileocolonoscopy or unsuccessful No obstruction Possible or known obstruction Patency capsule either/or No obstruction Obstruction Capsule endoscopy CTE/MRE (SBFT) Presence of SBCD Treat accordingly Figure 1. Algorithm for the approach to suspected small bowel Crohn’s Disease (CD). The absence of any mucosal lesions demonstrated by a complete assessment of the small bowel by capsule endoscopy excludes active CD of the small bowel. Patients with symptoms suggestive of obstruction, or known to have a stenosis should either undergo a patency capsule exam or evaluation by CTE or MRE prior to capsule endoscopy. Abbreviations: SB CD=small bowel Crohn’s Disease, CTE=CT enterography, MRE=MR enterography, SBFT=small bowel follow through.
Capsule Retention in Crohn’s Disease • In patients with Established CD, the risk is 5%, despite absence of strictures on SBFT. • In cases with Suspected CD: • The risk is low with negative SBFT. • If no SBFT, in the absence of obstructive symptoms, risk is yet unknown.
Conclusions • CE has a higher sensitivity for assessing small bowel mucosal lesions compared to other imaging techniques. • CE is helpful diagnosing suspected Crohn’s in the pediatric population. • CE is superior to CT enterography & MRI; particularly for proximal - mid small bowel CD. • CE may be useful as a first line evaluation of postoperative recurrence of CD. • CE can detect small bowel lesions in a significant number of patients with indeterminate colitis and may alter disease management. • CE is useful and safe in patients with suspected Crohn’s disease and negative endoscopic & small bowel imaging.
Esophagus June 2006 Panel Co-Chairmen R. Eliakim G. Eisen Panel Members: J.P. Galmiche, T. Roesch, F. Schnoll-Sussman, J. Herrerias, V.K. Sharma, E. Coron
Consensus Statement - Esophageal Capsule Endoscopy (ECE) Esophageal Varices Barrett’s Esophagus • A new approach to esophageal diagnostics • Simple and easy • Patient-friendly • Screening tool for esophageal diseases • Encouraging initial clinical data
Consensus Statement – Varices • Esophageal varices (EV) are a serious consequence of portal hypertension (PHT). • In patients with cirrhosis, the incidence of EV increases 5% per year and the rate of progression from small to large varices is 5-10%. • Increasing size of varices is associated with increased wall tension leading to rupture and bleeding. • AASLD/UK guidelines recommend endoscopic screening of patients with cirrhosis for varices and treatment of patients with medium/large varices to prevent bleeding. Eisen G, De Franchis R, Eliakim R, Zaman A, Schwartz J, Faigel D, Rondonotti E, Villa F, Weizman E, Yassin K. Preliminary results of International Multicenter Trial. 32 patients reported. ICCE 2006 AB 20154
Consensus Statement – Varices (continued) • Recommended endoscopic screening intervals are 1-3 years, depending on presence/absence of varices and whether patient has compensated/decompensated liver disease. • Endoscopic surveillance is performed in patients after obliteration of varices. • This patient population could benefit from a non-invasive diagnostic test that does not require sedation. • These recommendations/practices represent a potentially large endoscopic burden. Eisen G, De Franchis R, Eliakim R, Zaman A, Schwartz J, Faigel D, Rondonotti E, Villa F, Weizman E, Yassin K. Preliminary results of International Multicenter Trial. 32 patients reported. ICCE 2006 AB 20154
EV Screening Pilot Trial • Initial pilot trial – EV screening with ESO • Prospective blinded, 3 center study • 32 patients – enriched population with surveillance • No complications, no retention • Japanese endoscopic grading system • F0 = none • F1 = small • F2 = medium • F3 = large • Modified classification for current trial • None/small/medium-large • Medium-Large > 25% circumference Eisen G, Eliakim R, Zaman A, Schwartz J,Faigel D, Rondonotti E, Villa F, Weizman E, Yassin K, de Franchis R.

Epidemiologyin Barrett’s Esophagus 7% of US Population have daily GERD Symptoms 10% of Chronic GERD Patients have Barrett’s esophagus Risk of esophageal cancer in Barrett’s esophagus 30-60 times > general population up to 2% of patients with BE Locke III et al. Gastro 1997: 112:1448-1456. Falk GW. Gastro Endosc 1999; 49(3):S29-34.
Screening for Barrett’s Esophagus • Adenocarcinoma is a lethal disease. • GERD is a firmly established risk factor for this cancer. • Barrett’s esophagus, a premalignant precursor, is firmly associated with GERD symptoms, and is clearly associated with an increased risk of cancer (RR 30-60 X general population).
Multi-center Study Overview • Primary aims • Accuracy of ECE compared with EGD for the diagnosis of esophageal pathology in patients with chronic GERD symptoms • Specificity, sensitivity, PPV, NPV • Safety and adverse events of ECE • Secondary aims • Assess capability of ECE to identify presence of Barrett’s esophagus in patients undergoing surveillance endoscopy • Assess patient satisfaction with both procedures • Multi-site: Prospective 7-center international study • Israel (3), USA (3), Germany (1) • Inclusion criteria • Aged 18 years or older • Confirmation of 1 of the following: • Histologic confirmation of Barrett's esophagus undergoing surveillance endoscopy • Chronic GERD symptoms undergoing upper endoscopy for the evaluation of GERD Eliakim R et al. J Clin Gastroenterol 2005;39:572-578
Patient Enrollment 109 patients enrolled 1 unable to swallow capsule 2 technical difficulties 106 included in per-protocol statistical analysis 93 (88%) endoscoped for GERD symptoms 13 (12%) for surveillance of Barrett’s esophagus Eliakim R et al. J Clin Gastroenterol 2005;39:572-578
Methods • ECE swallowed using standardized ingestion protocol. • Blinded investigator reviewed ECE videos. • Upper endoscopy performed on the same day following ECE. • Adjudication committee arbitrated if discrepancy between procedures was noted. • Barrett’s cases were not biopsied for confirmation.
