About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Rabeprazole in the Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in 12-16 Year Old Patients

The primary objective of this study is to collect safety information on rabeprazole 10 mg and 20 mg in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children aged 12 to 16 years. The secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy of rabeprazole on the improvement of the symptoms of GERD and to explore the relationship of symptom relief to dose received, based on symptom frequency and severity, antacid use, and quality of life (QOL) measures.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rabeprazole sodium in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, run by Eisai Inc. at 25 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Dec 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Experienced by >=5% of Patients in Any Treatment Group (time frame: 8 weeks from randomization and end of treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Dec 2009.
