Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Esophageal Lesions in France
Official title: Prospective Multicenter Cohort on Esophageal Submucosal Dissection: Evaluation of Technical, Oncological, and Organizational Outcomes in Real-Life Practice
Run by Société Française d'Endoscopie Digestive · NCT07343869 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study follows adults who are undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection to remove esophageal lesions and see how well the procedure works across several French centers.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 18 years or older referred for endoscopic resection of an esophageal lesion and treated by submucosal dissection at one of the participating centers.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not undergo endoscopic submucosal dissection or who have lesions not suited to this technique may not experience direct benefit from the findings.

What this trial studies
This multicenter observational cohort collects data from patients treated with submucosal dissection for superficial esophageal neoplasms. It focuses on real-world outcomes after endoscopic resection, including factors that influence recurrence and potential spread. Data will come from routine clinical care at participating centers, with emphasis on histological features and safety. No experimental interventions are introduced beyond standard endoscopic practice. The study aims to describe patterns of care and short- to mid-term outcomes across the French centers involved.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the study could clarify how well endoscopic submucosal dissection performs in preventing recurrence and guide best practices for patient selection and follow-up.
How similar studies have gone: Endoscopic resection approaches have shown favorable outcomes in similar settings, though this study adds real-world, multicenter observational data from France.
