Dexlansoprazole
for Erosive Esophagitis in Children
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is caused by food or acid coming up from the stomach into the esophagus, repeatedly. The esophagus is the tube that carries food and liquids from the mouth to the stomach. The body uses stomach acid to break down food, but when acid rises up into the esophagus it can hurt or damage it. People with GERD often feel food coming back up into the throat and mouth and have a burning feeling in their stomach, chest, or throat, called heartburn. Other symptoms of GERD include pain in the stomach or throat, difficulty eating, and throwing up. Sometimes GERD damages the lining of the esophagus, creating breaks. This is called erosive esophagitis (EE). Dexlansoprazole is a type of medicine that helps lower the amount of acid made in the stomach. It has been shown to heal EE and maintain (keep) healing of EE in adults and teenagers. This study is being done to find out if dexlansoprazole can also heal EE and maintain the healing of EE in children.

The study aims to see how effective the drug is and what side effects it might have. Participants will take the medication daily for a few months and record their symptoms. Dexlansoprazole is used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
