This is a tracking study for people with Barrett's esophagus, a condition where cells lining the food pipe change due to acid reflux. Researchers are collecting information about how doctors treat this condition and what outcomes patients have over time. The study will help doctors better understand the natural path of the disease and which treatments work best.
Barrett's esophagus can lead to serious complications, but doctors still need to learn more about which patients are at highest risk and how different treatments affect long-term outcomes. This study will gather real-world information to improve how doctors care for people with this condition.

You would be followed over time as your doctors manage your Barrett's esophagus using standard care. Researchers will collect information about your endoscopy procedures, biopsies, treatments, and how you progress—this is observational research, meaning you are not receiving a new medication or procedure, but rather your existing care is being documented. The study aims to enroll 300 participants across Australia.
