Trial summary

Currently, a 10-day concomitant therapy has been reported to be equally effective and safe to the 10-day sequential therapy for 1st-line anti-Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) therapy. To our knowledge, there has been no report concerning the efficacy of this regimen used as a rescue therapy. Read more about this study

About this study

Currently, a 10-day concomitant therapy has been reported to be equally effective and safe to the 10-day sequential therapy for 1st-line anti-Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) therapy. To our knowledge, there has been no report concerning the efficacy of this regimen used as a rescue therapy.

The aims of this study are:

  1. to compare the efficacy of high dose dual therapy and concomitant therapy as rescue regimen in H. pylori eradication;
  2. to compare the patient adherence and adverse effects of these treatment regimens;
  3. to investigate factors that may influence H. pylori eradication by these treatment regimens.
Read the detailed description

Patients, aged 18, having H. pylori-positive chronic gastritis with/without peptic ulcers will be recruited. All undergo endoscopy with biopsy before treatment. Four to eight weeks after termination of treatment, H. pylori infection status will be examined by endoscopy with biopsy or the Carbon 13-urea breath test if the patients refuse the second endoscopy. The cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C19 genotype of each participant will be analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. A computed generated random numbers sequence will be blocked into two subgroups, say A and B.

If the patients had received anti-H. pylori therapy previously, they will be invited to enter the study for evaluating the efficacy of rescue regimens. After giving their written informed consent, all patients will be labeled with numbers by enrolling order. Each patient will be randomly allocated to one of two treatment groups which receives medications for 10 to 14 days:

group A - high dose dual therapy (rabeprazole 20 mg qid + amoxicillin 750 mg qid for 14 days); group B - concomitant therapy (rabeprazole 20 mg + amoxicillin 1000 mg + metronidazole 500 mg + clarithromycin 500 mg, bid for 10 days).

All patients will be asked to complete a questionnaire and to record symptoms and drug consumption daily in a diary card during the treatment period. Post-treatment, the patients will be seen at the Outpatient Clinic to investigate patient adherence and adverse effects of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. to compare the efficacy of 10-day concomitant regimen versus high dose dual therapy used as atni-Helicobacter pylori rescue therapy

    The eradication rates (efficacy) will be evaluated by intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analysis.

    Measured: 1.5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. to compare the adverse effects and patient adherence of 10-day concomitant regimen versus high dose dual therapy used as atni-Helicobacter pylori rescue therapy

    The safety and tolerability will be evaluated by the number of participant with adverse events and patient adherence (by counting unused medication after the treatment and record symptoms in a diary card).

    Measured: 1.5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing high dose dual therapy and concomitant therapy in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection, 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 1 inclusion and 6 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 3 Jun 2013. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jyh-Chin Yang, M.D.Ph.D (886-2-23123456 ext. 65055, jcyang47@ntu.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

to compare the efficacy of 10-day concomitant regimen versus high dose dual therapy used as atni-Helicobacter pylori rescue therapy (time frame: 1.5 years). 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 3 Jun 2013.
