Inflammatory Mediators as Potential Non-Invasive Biomarkers and Understanding the Mechanism of Remodeling in Tissue Biopsies in Subjects With Eosinophilic Esophagitis: A Pilot Study

The investigators seek to assess esophageal inflammation or lack of it in response to treatment with a novel non-invasive method that would measure eosinophil-associated inflammatory mediators in the blood and urine to determine the presence of active Eosinophilic Esophagitis. For these purposes, the investigators will correlate esophageal inflammatory mediators measured in blood and urine with histological findings identified on esophageal mucosal biopsies. Additionally, biopsies associated mediators will be assessed relative to clinical phenotype and outcome.
