About this study

This study is conducted to investigate whether the efficacy of single-dose triple therapy (Esomeprazole 40 mg, Tinidazole 1 g, and Levofluxacine 500 mg) for 14 days is superior to double-dose lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin 1 g and clarithromycin 500 mg for 14 days in the treatment of H pylori infection.

Read the detailed description

Multiple regimens have been evaluated for H. pylori therapy in randomized controlled trials The treatment regimen that is selected must be effective, but considerations such as cost, side effects, and ease of administration should also be taken into account. Despite the number of studies, the optimal therapeutic regimen has not yet been defined.

The regimen most commonly recommended for first line treatment of H. pylori is triple therapy with a PPI, amoxicillin and clarithromycin for 14 days. However, the multi-drug application is associated with remarkable side effects and it is not uncommon not to be able to complete a treatment course. Thus, treatment failure is associated with H. pylori strains that are resistant to the commonly used antibiotics. This study is conducted to investigate whether the efficacy of single-dose triple therapy (Esomeprazole 40 mg, Tinidazole 1 g, and Levofluxacine 500 mg) for 14 days is superior to double-dose lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin 1 g and clarithromycin 500 mg for 14 days in the treatment of H pylori infection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Nexium, Tinafas and Tavanex in people with Helicobacter Infection, run by Zahra Vahdat Shariatpanahi at 1 site in Iran.

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 9 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 8 Jun 2017. 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 Iran. 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?

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?

The rate of H.pylori eradication (time frame: 42 days after study completion). 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 NCT02711176, 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 8 Jun 2017.
