• Case-control study in the KP Bay Area population

• Cases: Pts with known BE who died of EAC, 1995-2009• Controls: Pts from the pop with BE who did not die of EAC

• Matched for age, sex, and duration of f/u

• Exposure: Surveillance endoscopy in 3 yrs prior to index date

• Basic idea is that those dying of CA should be less likely to have surveillance exam than those who did not die

“Since dysplasia has no distinctive gross features, endoscopists collect random samples of esophageal tissue for biopsy; thus sampling error is a major problem.

By the time biopsy specimens show high-grade dysplasia in patients with Barrett’s esophagus, approximately one third of patients have an invasive cancer. Extensive sampling can reduce this problem but cannot eliminate it…Despite its shortcomings, endoscopy with random sampling for dysplasia remains the clinical standard for managing Barrett’s esophagus.”

Limitations of the Random Biopsy

in the Detection of Barrett’s Esophagus

“The distribution of goblet cells is patchy within the columnar lined distal esophagus. The yield of intestinal metaplasia on biopsies obtained from the columnar lined esophagus will depend on the length of columnar mucosa as well as the number of biopsies obtained.”

Prateek Sharma, Barrett’s Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, 2001

• Random biopsy yield of IM in VSSBE of less than 1cm (evidenced as an irregular Z-line) = 15%

• Random biopsy yield of IM in SSBE of less than 3cm = 58%

The wider surface area sampled by the transepithelial WATS

biopsy addresses this problem

Forceps biopsy has a significant

potential for sampling error

Why didn’t anyone think of this before?

• WATS transepithelial tissue samples are routinely over 100μ thick, 50X thicker than the 2μ thick cytology or histology sample.

• This uniquely thick specimen consists of a complex mixture of disaggregated 3D tissue fragments which needs to be exhaustively searched by the pathologist for evidence of abnormality.

Introduction to WATS3D Data

• Unless testing a specific, identified lesion or performing a complete microscopic analysis of an entire tissue specimen, “test sensitivity” is not a relevant metric.

• For techniques designed to increase the detection of additional occult abnormality, the primary statistical metric is “Added Yield”

• Added Yield = Additional detection of disease resulting from addition of adjunctive test /Detection without addition of the adjunctive test

Page 32: Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's ......Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's Esophagus: Has a paradigm shift occurred? New York Society for Gastrointestinal

WATS3D is an Adjunctive Test

• In all studies clinicians are advised to continue to use their FB to test those areas of the esophagus which appear most suspicious endoscopically and to use WATS3D to test additional tissue.

• WATS3D and FB results are expected to differ because the two biopsy techniques are being used to test different tissue areas.

• Contingency table/Confusion matrix therefore has limited value.

• A prospective registry with 19 New Community Practices undergoing screening or surveillance endoscopy with both FB and WATS3D

• 1655 patients, average age was 59 years (43% male)

• The indication for endoscopy was GERD in over 75% of patients

• In cases with suspected BE, segment length was less than 3 cm

• FB alone identified BE in 203 cases (12%), and dysplasia in 9 cases (0.54%)

Page 40: Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's ......Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's Esophagus: Has a paradigm shift occurred? New York Society for Gastrointestinal

• WATS3D identified an additional 203 cases of BE, increasing the absolute yield for BE to 25%.

• WATS3D also detected an additional 12 cases of dysplasia, increasing the absolute yield for dysplasia to 1.26%.

• Added Yields of 110% for BE and 133% for dysplasia.

Summary of Cross-Sectional Data

• Adjunctive use of WATS3D has been shown in large studies to markedly increase the detection of both BE and dysplasia in both community screening and academic surveillance settings.

• While substitutive use was not directly tested in any study and is not recommended, contingency tables suggest an advantage to WATS3D for this use.

Page 47: Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's ......Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's Esophagus: Has a paradigm shift occurred? New York Society for Gastrointestinal

What’s Next: WATS3D Clinical Registry

• The efficacy of WATS3D in addressing the intrinsic sampling error of random esophageal biopsy has been well established by cross-sectional data.

• As a result WATS3D is now being incorporated as part of the routine standard of care in both community and academic GI practices.

• Collecting longitudinal data from this routine clinical use may determine if WATS3D can not only provide greater detection of disease, but also a more prognostically useful detection of disease.

Page 48: Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's ......Advances in the Detection and Evaluation of Barrett's Esophagus: Has a paradigm shift occurred? New York Society for Gastrointestinal

WATS3D Clinical Registry

• Participation open to community and academic settings

• Goals:

• 1) Understand the utilization of WATS3D in real world settings

• 2) Understand the longitudinal outcomes of patients assessed with WATS3D

• 3) Understand the significance of pathologic findings detected by WATS3D

• Crypt Dysplasia - To of effacement of the normal honeycomb pattern of the non-dysplastic gland

• Non-goblet cell Intestinal Metaplasia – CDX2

Crypt dysplasia with surface maturation: a

clinical, pathologic, and molecular study

of a Barrett's esophagus cohort.

Lomo LC, Blount PL, Sanchez CA, Li X, Galipeau PC, Cowan DS, Ayub K, Rabinovitch PS, Reid BJ, Odze RD.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical, pathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular characteristics of basal crypt dysplasia-like atypia (BCDA) with surface maturation. BCDA with surface maturation, in mucosal biopsies from patients with BE, is an uncommon but significant pathologic change that shows a variety of proliferative and molecular abnormalities and has a high association with conventional dysplasia and/or adenocarcinoma.

Standard Anatomic Pathology Practice - Fundamentally unchanged

since 1850 - An approx. 5mm deep tissue sample is cut into a few thin

(2μ) sections which are stained with H&E to show tissue architecture

Standard microscopy requires 2μsectioning, destroying the natural appearance of the glandular surface

The surface of the gland, not the histologic section,

may hold the most definitive evidence of LGD

WATS3D preserves and presents the en face view of the gland, allowing for appreciation of the normal honeycomb arrangement of cells and its dysplastic effacement. May allow elimination of “Indefinite for Dysplasia”

Does CDX2 expression predict Barrett's metaplasia in oesophageal columnar epithelium without goblet cells?

Kerkhof M, Bax DA, Moons LM, van Vuuren AJ, van Dekken H, Steyerberg

EW, Kuipers EJ, Kusters JG, Siersema PD; Cybar Study

CDX2 expression in cardiac-type mucosa might be able to predict the presence of undetected intestinal metaplasia in columnar-lined oesophagus, and thus may be a putative marker for the presence of intestinal metaplasia in the absence of goblet cells.
