Résumé

There has been no report on a direct comparison between linked color imaging (LCI) and second-generation narrow-band imaging (2G-NBI) for surveillance of epithelial neoplasms in the upper gastrointestinal tract (UGIT). The aim of this study was to verify the superiority of LCI to 2G-NBI for surveillance esophagogastroduodenoscopy and to clarify how each endoscopic system should be used. This study was conducted as an open-label, two-arm-parallel (1:1), multicenter, randomized controlled trial at six institutions. Patients aged 20-85 years with a treatment history of epithelial neoplasms in the UGIT were recruited. Patients were assigned to a 2G-NBI group and an LCI group, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy was performed with primary image-enhanced endoscopy followed by white light imaging (WLI). The primary endpoint was the detection rate of one or more epithelial neoplasms in the primary image-enhanced endoscopy. A WLI-detected epithelial neoplasm was defined as a lesion that was detected in only WLI. A total of 372 patients in the 2G-NBI group and 378 patients in the LCI group were analyzed. Epithelial neoplasms in the UGIT were detected by 2G-NBI in 18 patients (4.6%) and were detected by LCI in 20 patients (5.3%) (P = 0.87). WLI-detected epithelial neoplasms were in 11 patients in the 2G-NBI group (3.0%) and in 1 patient in the LCI group (0.27%) (P = 0.003). Linked color imaging did not show superiority to 2G-NBI for the detection of epithelial neoplasms. Also, the percentage of WLI-detected epithelial neoplasms in primary NBI was significantly higher than that in primary LCI.

BACKGROUND AND AIM OBJECTIVE
There has been no report on a direct comparison between linked color imaging (LCI) and second-generation narrow-band imaging (2G-NBI) for surveillance of epithelial neoplasms in the upper gastrointestinal tract (UGIT). The aim of this study was to verify the superiority of LCI to 2G-NBI for surveillance esophagogastroduodenoscopy and to clarify how each endoscopic system should be used.
METHODS METHODS
This study was conducted as an open-label, two-arm-parallel (1:1), multicenter, randomized controlled trial at six institutions. Patients aged 20-85 years with a treatment history of epithelial neoplasms in the UGIT were recruited. Patients were assigned to a 2G-NBI group and an LCI group, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy was performed with primary image-enhanced endoscopy followed by white light imaging (WLI). The primary endpoint was the detection rate of one or more epithelial neoplasms in the primary image-enhanced endoscopy. A WLI-detected epithelial neoplasm was defined as a lesion that was detected in only WLI.
RESULTS RESULTS
A total of 372 patients in the 2G-NBI group and 378 patients in the LCI group were analyzed. Epithelial neoplasms in the UGIT were detected by 2G-NBI in 18 patients (4.6%) and were detected by LCI in 20 patients (5.3%) (P = 0.87). WLI-detected epithelial neoplasms were in 11 patients in the 2G-NBI group (3.0%) and in 1 patient in the LCI group (0.27%) (P = 0.003).
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Linked color imaging did not show superiority to 2G-NBI for the detection of epithelial neoplasms. Also, the percentage of WLI-detected epithelial neoplasms in primary NBI was significantly higher than that in primary LCI.
