About this study

Official title: Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Multicenter Trial on the Efficacy of Esomeprazole Treatment for Patients With Lymphocytic Gastritis

The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with esomeprazole alone is able to heal patients with lymphocytic gastritis

Read the detailed description

Recently, a placebo controlled trial of our group has shown that H. pylori eradication therapy consisting of omeprazole 20 mg bid, clarithromycin 500 mg bid, amoxicillin 1000 mg bid for seven days leads to a complete long-lasting resolution of lymphocytic gastritis in 96 % of patients. However, after 3 months we also found a healing rate of 50 % in patients who received omeprazole 20 mg bid and placebo antibiotics for seven days suggesting spontaneous remission or a potential PPI effect. Thus, we speculate that PPI therapy may have led to elimination of H. pylori and subsequently healing of lymphocytic gastritis in those patients with potentially minimal H. pylori colonization at baseline. For this reason we investigate whether a PPI treatment alone is able to heal patients with lymphocytic gastritis.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective is to assess the healing rate of

  2. patients with lymphocytic gastritis irrespective of H. pylori status after treatment

  3. with esomeprazole 20 mg twice daily for 2 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Secondary objective of the study are to evaluate the grade and activity of gastritis before and after

  2. treatment according to updated Sydney classification, to assess the clinical GI symptoms at baseline and after 3 months

  3. and to evaluate influence of the H. pylori-Status
