About this study

This is a 2-arm, prospective, double-blind, double-dummy, randomized-controlled study using DLBS2411 at a dose of 250 mg twice daily (before morning and evening meals), or omeprazole at a dose of 40 mg once daily (before morning meal), for an 8-week course of therapy, for the treatment of patients with any non-bleeding peptic ulcers.

DLBS2411 is a bioactive fraction of an Indonesian native herbal, Cinnamomum burmanii, locally known as kayu manis have been proven at cellular and genetic levels to have an antiulcer effect through both suppressing the gastric acidity and enhancing gastric mucosal protection. The anti-secretory effect of DLBS2411 is exerted through the inhibition of H+/K+ ATPase 'pump' as well as down-regulation of the H+/K+ ATPase gene expression, thus suppressing gastric acid secretion; while its gastro-protective defense mechanism works through the promotion of COX-2 derived prostaglandin (PgE2) synthesis, stimulating gastric-epithelial mucous and bicarbonate secretion; anti-oxidative activity; and endothelial-nitric oxide (NO) formation.

Recent study of DLBS2411 in healthy volunteers demonstrated the effective role and safety of DLBS2411 in suppressing intragastric acidity. Having such mechanisms of action, DLBS2411 is hypothesized to benefit in peptic ulcers.

Read the detailed description

A total of 140 subjects will be allocated into 2 groups of treatment; each group will consist of 70 subjects with the treatment regimens:

Treatment I : 2 capsules of Omeprazole 20 mg, once daily and 1 placebo caplet of DLBS2411, twice daily Treatment II : 1 caplet of DLBS2411 250 mg, twice daily and 2 placebo capsules of omeprazole, once daily

DLBS2411 will be administered twice daily at least 30 minutes before morning and evening meals, while omeprazole, once daily before morning meals, for 8 weeks of study period.

The eligible subjects will receive either study medication (Treatment 1 or Treatment 2), for 8 weeks of treatment; and will be instructed to come to the clinic every 4-week interval throughout the study period.

Subjects will be evaluated for treatment efficacy at baseline and at interval of 4 weeks over the 8-week course of therapy.

The safety profile of study medication other than vital signs and adverse event will be measured at baseline and end of study. Vital signs and adverse event will be measured at baseline and every follow-up visit including end of study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Endoscopic ulcer healing rate

    Endoscopic ulcer healing rate after 8 weeks of treatment. Ulcer healing rate is defined as the proportion of subjects with complete ulcer-healing (referring to S1 or S2 Scarring stage according to Sakita-Fukutomi classification) as confirmed by endoscopic finding.

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. The improvement rate of each of gastric symptoms

    The improvement rate of each of gastric symptoms at each of the follow-up visits (after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment):

    • abdominal or epigastric pain (middle or upper stomach)
    • nausea or vomiting,
    • bloating

    Measured: 4 and 8 weeks

  2. The quality of ulcer healing

    The quality of ulcer healing as measured by the levels of gastric mucosal bFGF (basic fibroblast growth factor) and COX-2 (cyclo-oxygenase), at baseline and Week 8 of treatment.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  3. Mucosal thickness

    Gastric mucosal thickness will be measured quantitatively as the expression of MUC5AC by immunohistochemistry (IHC) method, at baseline and Week 8 of treatment.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  4. Patients' global evaluation for their symptoms

    Patients' global evaluation for their symptoms categorized as: no improvement or slightly improved or moderately improved or markedly improved, at Week 4 and 8 (end of study).

    Measured: 4 and 8 weeks

  5. Liver function

    Liver function (serum ALT (alanine-aminotransferase), serum AST (aspartate-aminotransferase), alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin) at baseline and at the end of study

    Measured: 8 weeks

  6. Renal function

    Renal function (serum creatinine and BUN (blood urea nitrogen) level) at baseline and at the end of study

    Measured: 8 weeks

  7. Adverse events

    Adverse event, will be observed throughout the study conduct

    Measured: 4 and 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Omeprazole and DLBS2411 in people with Non-Bleeding Peptic Ulcers, run by Dexa Medica Group at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2019. 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 Indonesia. 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 was stopped early (reason given: This study was terminated due to internal technical issues at study site). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Endoscopic ulcer healing rate (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 9 Jul 2019.
