About this study

Official title: CONFIRM - Confirmation of Superiority of Complete Remission Concept Versus Classical Healing Concept for Treatment of Patients With Erosive GERD

The aim of this study is to evaluate the complete remission rates, endoscopic relapses, study discontinuation rates, and quality of life parameters in patients with erosive GERD. The study duration consists of a treatment period up to 16 weeks according to the classical healing concept or the complete remission concept. During this period, the patients will receive pantoprazole (tablet) at one dose level once daily. The following observational phase lasts up to 6 months. The study will provide further data on efficacy, safety, and tolerability of pantoprazole.

What does this phase mean?

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?

time to endoscopic relapse and/or unwillingness to continue due to GERD related symptoms. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00325676, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
