Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

EGJOO is a disorder in which the muscles of the esophagus (swallowing tube) do not function in a coordinated fashion so that swallowed material does not pass easily into the stomach. EGJOO often causes symptoms of swallowing difficulties and chest pain. The cause of EGJOO and its optimal treatment are not clear. The investigators research team suspects that EGJOO might be caused by an allergy that involves the esophagus, and that treatment with medications called corticosteroids might improve function of the esophageal muscles. The purpose of this study is to learn how corticosteroid therapy affects the muscles of the esophagus in patients suffering with EGJOO.
