About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study on the Healing Effects of Rebamipide and Omeprazole in Helicobacter Pylori-positive Gastric Ulcer After Eradication Therapy

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ulcer healing efficacy of rebamipide in comparison with omeprazole in Helicobacter pylori-positive gastric ulcer after eradication therapy.

Read the detailed description

This study is designed to evaluate the ulcer healing efficacy of rebamipide administered following the eradication therapy in comparison with the well known PPI, omeprazole. This is a double-blind, comparative study which is expected to prove the role of rebamipide in gastric ulcer healing after the eradication therapy. This study may contribute to further clinical research on a new type of ulcer treatment by looking at the treatment modality based on the enhancement of defensive factors.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Gastric ulcer healing rate

    Rebamipide showed 81.5~87.8% of gastric ulcer healing rate which was not inferior to 82.5~87.8% healing rate of Omeprazole.

    Measured: at 12 weeks after the initial administration of the study medication

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Gastric ulcer healing rate in cases with successful H.pylori eradication and H.pylori eradication failure (12 weeks after administration of the study medication.)

    Measured: at 12 weeks after the initial administration of the study medication

  2. Serum gastrin level

    Measured: at 8 and 12 weeks after the initial administration of study medication

  3. Economical efficiency

    Rebamipide was more cost effective than Omeparzole for 7 weeks of gastric ulcer treatment.

    Measured: drug cost/effect ratio

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Rebamipide and Omeprazole in people with Stomach Ulcer, run by Korea Otsuka International Asia Arab at 7 sites in 2 countries.

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 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 29 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in China, South Korea. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Gastric ulcer healing rate (time frame: at 12 weeks after the initial administration of the study medication). 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 29 Apr 2015.
