SECOND GENERATION COLON CAPSULE ENDOSCOPY (CCE-2) IN PEDIATRIC CROHN'S DISEASE (CD).

This prospective pilot study of 40 pediatric patients with Crohn's Disease, that are candidates for endoscopic and imaging re-evaluation, examines the Given Diagnostic System and the second generation of colon capsule in comparison second generation of colon capsule endoscopy (CCE-2) to magnetic resonance enterography (MRE), small intestine contrast ultrasonography (SICUS) and endoscopy (upper and lower).

This study aims

1. To evaluate and compare the accuracy of CCE-2 with MRE, SICUS and endoscopy in the evaluation of pediatric Crohn's disease. 2. To evaluate the safety of CCE-2 in pediatric CD.

Inclusion criteria

Subjects must meet one the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for enrollment into this proposed study:

  • diagnosis of Crohn's Disease made at least 3 months before the enrolment;
  • subject was referred for endoscopic and imaging follow-up in Crohn's Disease
  • signed informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

The presence of any of the following will exclude a subject from study enrollment:

  • Subject has dysphagia
  • Subject has renal insufficiency
  • Subject is known structuring Crohn's Disease identified by magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) or small intestine contrast ultrasonography (SICUS).
  • Subject has had prior abdominal surgery of the gastrointestinal tract other than uncomplicated procedures that would be unlikely to lead to bowel obstruction based on the magnetic resonance enterography findings and clinical judgment of the investigator.

Second generation of colon capsule endoscopy (GIVEN IMAGING)

Device

Primary outcomes

  1. To evaluate and compare the accuracy of Second generation of Colon Capsule Endoscopy with magnetic resonance enterography, small intestine contrast ultrasonography and endoscopy in the evaluation of pediatric Crohn's disease.

    Time frame: 3 days

    Accuracy parameters (sensitivity, specificity, NPV, PPV) of second generation of colon capsule endoscopy compared to endoscopy, to magnetic resonance enterography and to small intestine contrast ultrasonography in evaluating disease activity in pediatric CD.

    The disease activity will be evaluated with a validated score (SES-CD) for endoscopy and imaging tool (damage-score).

Secondary outcomes

  1. To evaluate the safety of second generation of colon capsule endoscopy in pediatric Crohn's disease.

    Time frame: two days

    Number, type and severity of adverse events with second generation of Crohn's disease.
