What is being measured

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

  1. To compare the total percent time during the 24-hour monitoring period that gastric pH is above 4.0 at steady state in patients when taking: esomeprazole 40mg twice daily, esomeprazole 40mg three times daily, esomeprazole 20 mg three times daily.

    Measured: pH measured on Day 5

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Compare total percent time distal esophageal pH is above 4.0 at steady state for each treatment period.

    Measured: pH measured

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Esomeprazole Magnesium in people with Barrett's Esophagus, run by AstraZeneca.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 25 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

To compare the total percent time during the 24-hour monitoring period that gastric pH is above 4.0 at steady state in patients when taking: esomeprazole 40mg twice daily, esomeprazole 40mg three times daily, esomeprazole 20 mg three times daily. (time frame: pH measured on Day 5). 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 25 Jan 2011.
