Summary
The aim of this study is to compare investigator and patient-assessed gastroesophageal reflux
disease symptoms in patients with erosive GERD or endoscopic-negative GERD (enGERD). An
endoscopy will be performed at study start and study end. During the study, the patients will
complete a patient-orientated, self-assessed reflux questionnaire (ReQuestâ„¢ questionnaire).
