A Prospective, Multicenter Study to Compare and Validate Endoscopic, Histologic, Molecular, and Patient-Reported Outcomes in Pediatric and Adult Patients With Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE), Gastritis (EG) and Colitis (EC)
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 eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE),
eosinophilic gastritis (EG), and eosinophilic colitis (EC) normally undergo endoscopy and/or
colonoscopy (scope down the throat or up the bottom) where tissue specimens are collected for
microscopic analysis. Treatments are then decided based on how the tissue looks. 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.

This is a longitudinal observational study in which individuals (males and females 3 years of
age and greater) with EoE, EG, and EC will be followed over the course of time to see if
standard questionnaires can give us an idea of how well the person is doing.
Participants undergoing standard of care (normal, routine care) endoscopies and/or
colonoscopies will have biopsies (small pieces of tissue from the GI tract normally collected
during these procedures) collected and used for the research study. Participants will also
complete questionnaires related to their symptoms and quality of life. Participants will be
followed over the course of time and asked to complete the questionnaires at various time
points throughout the study.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Males or females 3 years of age and older
- Mucosal eosinophilia (≥15 eos/hpf for EoE, ≥30 eos/hpf for EG, ≥32 eos/hpf for EC)
- Presence of symptoms is required for patients who are newly diagnosed but not required
for patients who were previously diagnosed
- EC patients must have a history of one of the following at the time of colonoscopy:
1. anemia
2. peripheral eosinophilia
3. hemoccult positive stool
4. EGID
5. allergic disease (allergic rhinitis, asthma, food allergy, eczema or other
allergic features suggestive of atopic disease)
Exclusion Criteria:
- History of intestinal surgery other than G tube placement
- Enrolled in a blinded investigational study
- Have esophageal stricture (<3mm)
- Have other identifiable causes for eosinophilia (except Inflammatory Bowel Disease):
infections, Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer, other GI inflammatory disease (e.g.,
Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease)
