Trial summary

The role of Helicobacter pylori infection in functional dyspepsia remains controversial. Several randomized controlled trials in western countries have shown no significant advantage over placebo. But some recent studies in Asian population were different compared to the result of studies in the Western population. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase 4 Study of Helicobacter Pylori Eradication Therapy

The role of Helicobacter pylori infection in functional dyspepsia remains controversial. Several randomized controlled trials in western countries have shown no significant advantage over placebo. But some recent studies in Asian population were different compared to the result of studies in the Western population. At the present time, it seems to be difficult to conclude the efficacy of the H.pylori eradication therapy in patients with H. pylori-infected functional dyspepsia.

The investigators hypothesize that eradication of Helicobacter pylori has a sustained global symptom improvement in patients with H. pylori infected functional dyspepsia.

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?

Global symptom improvement after eradication of Helicobacter pylori in patients with functional dyspepsia therapy) (time frame: Symptom assessment at 8 weeks after eradication). 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 6 Oct 2009.
