Study summary

This is a longitudinal, observational non-interventional study (NIS) designed to characterize the patient population who receives dupilumab for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) treatment in a real-world setting in Germany with respect to their medical history, socio-demographic and disease characteristics, comorbidities (including type 2 inflammatory and atopic conditions), concomitant therapies and prior EoE treatments. Furthermore, this NIS aims to describe the long-term effectiveness of dupilumab for the treatment of EoE as assessed by the treating physician and reported by the patient, and its effect on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) during an individual observational period of two years. In addition, data on real-world use patterns and long-term safety data of dupilumab treatment for EoE will be collected.

Study population

Patients suffering from EoE, ≥ 12 years of age with at least 40 kg bodyweight who are planned to be initiated with dupilumab for the treatment of EoE according to the prescribing information, i.e., the current Summary of Product Characteristics approved in the European Union (EU-SmPC).

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients diagnosed with EoE who are inadequately controlled by, are intolerant to, or who are not candidates for conventional medicinal therapy
  • Patients for whom the treating physician has decided to initiate new treatment with dupilumab for EoE according to EU-SmPC independently from entry in study or for whom treatment with dupilumab for EoE according to EU-SmPC has been started within the last 7 days. The decision to initiate dupilumab treatment is made by the treating physician and the patient according to the patients' medical need and to the standard of best medical practice. This decision is made independently and before inclusion in this NIS.
  • ≥ 12 years of age at baseline visit
  • ≥ 40 kg bodyweight
  • Voluntary study participation and signed written by patient and parent(s)/guardian(s), if applicable

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have a to dupilumab according to the current EU-SmPC.
  • Patients who have been treated with dupilumab for more than 7 days
  • Any acute or chronic condition that, in the treating physician's opinion, would limit the patients' ability to complete questionnaires or to participate in this study or impact the interpretation of the results.
  • Participation in an ongoing interventional or observational study that might, in the treating physician's opinion, influence the assessments for the current study (parallel inclusion in another Sanofi-independent registry might be possible if the patient gives consent)

The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started May 2025 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jun 2027, 24 months after the start.

Of 55 observational studies under Eosinophilic Esophagitis, half reached primary completion within 49 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 22 and three quarters within 120. This study's planned 24 months is below that.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 17, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
