  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The participant has been treated with standard-dose or higher-than-standard-dose PPI until immediately before the start of the Observation Phase.
  • Outpatient (in principle)
  • At the endoscopy scheduled for the Observation Phase (Visit 2), the participant must have endoscopically confirmed reflux esophagitis of Grade A to D, as defined by the LA classification grading system, which remains insufficiently controlled with standard-dose or higher-than-standard-dose PPI therapy.
  • The participant showed good compliance to the study medication in the Observation Phase (compliance rate 80% or more).

Who cannot join

  • Participants with an esophagus-related complication (eosinophilic esophagitis, esophageal varices, scleroderma, viral or fungal infection, esophageal stenosis, etc.), a history of radiotherapy or cryotherapy of the esophagus, a caustic or physiochemical trauma (esophageal sclerotherapy, etc.). However, participants with Schatzki's ring (mucosal tissue ring around inferior esophageal sphincter) or Barrett's esophagus are allowed to be included.
  • Participants who have received surgery or treatment affecting gastroesophageal reflux (cardioplasty, dilation of esophageal stenosis [excluding Schatzki's ring], etc.), or who have a history of surgery of stomach or duodenum (excluding removal of benign polyp under endoscopy)
  • Participants who have acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding, gastric or duodenal ulcer (mucosal defect with white coating) at the start of the Observation Phase (Visit 1) or at endoscopy during the Observation Phase (Visit 2) . However, participants with gastric or duodenal erosions are allowed to be included.
  • Participants with a previous or current history of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, or other gastric acid hypersecretion disorders.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing TAK-438 in people with Erosive Esophagitis, run by Takeda at 11 sites in Japan.

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 4 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 10 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Japan. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Time-course of changes in 24-hour gastroesophageal pH (time frame: Week 8). 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 10 Feb 2014.
