About this study

Official title: Phase 3 Study of Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Adjunctive High Dose Omeprazole Infusion Against Scheduled Second Endoscopy in the Prevention of Peptic Ulcer Rebleeding After Therapeutic Endoscopy

A prospective randomized study to compare the adjunctive use of high dose omeprazole infusion against scheduled second endoscopy in prevention of peptic ulcer rebleeding after therapeutic endoscopy.

Read the detailed description

We have previously performed a prospective randomized controlled trial on the effect of scheduled second endoscopy upon peptic ulcer rebleeding. We found that the rate of recurrent bleeding was significantly reduced from 13.8% to 5% with a scheduled second endoscopy and appropriate therapy performed within 24 hours after initial hemostasis.

When we look at the studies in the literature employing proton pump inhibitors (PPI) infusion after primary endoscopic therapy, we found that there was also a significant reduction in the rate of rebleeding, the number of operation performed and the transfusion requirement.

Controversy exists regarding the optimal strategy to minimize recurrent peptic ulcer bleeding after successful endoscopic hemostasis. A recent cost-effective analysis on various strategies showed that selective scheduled second endoscopy strategy was probably the most effective and least expensive to prevent recurrent peptic ulcer bleeding.

We conduct a randomized trial on the cost-effectiveness of using omeprazole infusion vs scheduled second endoscopy on the management of bleeding peptic ulcers.

  2. Clinical criteria (anyone of the below)

  3. 1. Haemetmesis or fresh blood from Ryles tube

  4. 2. Fresh melena with shock (systolic blood pressure < 100mmHg or pulse >100/min) or drop in Hb > 2g/dl

  5. 3. Haemoglobin drop for more than 4 g/dl in 24 hours before 2nd therapeutic endoscopy

  6. 4. Blood transfusion of > 4 unit in 24 hours to stabilize Hb level or vital signs

  7. AND Endoscopic criteria of Forrest I a, b or II a, b

Secondary outcomes (4)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Intravenous omeprazole infusion and Scheduled second endoscopy in people with Peptic Ulcer Hemorrhage, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 10 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Recurrent bleeding within 30 days after initial endoscopy defined as -. The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 10 Jun 2011.
