Summary

This trial will investigate if a drug can stop Barrett's esophagus from recurring after treatment, helping to prevent esophageal cancer and reduce complications.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with Barrett's esophagus who may have low to high-grade dysplasia or early-stage cancer and are set for endoscopic treatment. They should be relatively active (ECOG 0-2). It's not for those unable to consent, with severe heart failure, liver issues, allergy to itraconazole, pregnant women, or those on certain other drugs.
What is being tested?
The study tests Itraconazole in capsule and solution forms as a preventive treatment against the recurrence of Barrett's Esophagus after initial successful therapy. The goal is to improve long-term outcomes by preventing relapse which could lead to cancer.
What are the potential side effects?
Itraconazole can cause side effects like allergic reactions, liver problems, heart failure symptoms worsening in those already diagnosed with CHF, potential interactions with other medications metabolized by CYP3A4 leading to increased toxicity or reduced efficacy.
