About this study

Official title: High Dose Versus Standard Dose Proton Pump Inhibitor in High-risk Bleeding Peptic Ulcers After Combined Endoscopic Hemostasis: A Prospective Randomized Comparative Study

The study was designed to evaluate the efficacy an adjuvant use of standard dose or high dose of proton pump inhibitor after combined endoscopic hemostasis therapy.

Read the detailed description

Acute peptic ulcer bleeding remains the most common cause of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Endoscopy serves as a tool for initial diagnosis and triage and also a tool for immediate hemostasis, especially for high-risk lesions. High-risk lesions include peptic ulcers with active spurting vessel, oozing vessel, or NBVV, nonbleeding visible vessel. Current modalities of endoscopic hemostasis include epinephrine injection, endoscopic coaptive thermocoagulation, hemoclipping. Endoscopic hemostasis has been documented by a number of clinical studies to be effective in decreasing rebleeding, need for emergency surgery, decreasing hospitalization days. Current evidence also shows that combination therapy with epinephrine injection and heater probe thermocoagulation/hemo-clip hemostasis is more effective than epinephrine injection alone or than heater probe thermocoagulation alone, or than hemoclip hemostasis alone. Studies showed a high dose intravenous proton pump inhibitor infusion after initial endoscopic hemostasis reduced recurrent ulcer bleeding. However, it was still controversial whether an adjuvant use of standard-dose proton pump inhibitor therapy to endoscopic therapy had similar benefit. We hypothesized that an adjuvant use of standard dose of proton pump inhibitor after combined endoscopic hemostasis therapy offer similar benefit as high dose proton pump inhibitor did.

What is being measured

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

  1. rate of initial hemostasis and the rate of recurrent bleeding

    Measured: 72hr

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. need for surgical intervention to control bleeding, transfusion requirements, length of hospital stay (in days), and 30-day mortality

    Measured: 30day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High dose pantoprazole infusion and Standard dose pantoprazole infusion in people with Endoscopy and Peptic Ulcer, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jan 2010. 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 Taiwan. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Chieh-Chang Chen, MD (886-5-532-3911 ext. 2200, chiehchang.chen@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

rate of initial hemostasis and the rate of recurrent bleeding (time frame: 72hr). 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 NCT00709046, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jan 2010.
