About this study

Official title: Comparison of Dual Amoxicillin/Vonoprazan Therapy and Triple Vonoprazan/Amoxicillin/Clarithromycin or Metronidazole Therapy for H. Pylori Eradication

Patients infected with H. pylori were randomly assigned to the dual therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid and amoxicillin 500 mg tid for 1 week or the triple therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid, amoxicillin 750 mg bid and clarithromycin 200 mg or metronidazole 250 mg bid bid for 1 week. Success or failure of eradication was determined by the 13C-urea breath test performed at 1 month after the therapy.

Read the detailed description

Patients infected with H. pylori were enrolled and invited to the study.

Patients who have never undergone the H. pylori eradication therapy are randomly assigned to the dual therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid and amoxicillin 500 mg tid for 1 week or the triple therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid, amoxicillin 750 mg bid and clarithromycin 200 mg bid for 1 week.

Patients who have ever failed in the eradication of H. pylori by the triple therapy containing clarithromycin are randomly assigned to the dual therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid and amoxicillin 500 mg tid for 1 week or the triple therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid, amoxicillin 750 mg bid and metronidazole 250 mg bid for 1 week.

Success or failure of eradication was determined by the 13C-urea breath test performed at 1 month after the therapy.

Triple therapyActive comparatorPatients assigned to this group are treated with the triple therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid, clarithromycin 200 mg bid and amoxicillin 750 mg bid for 1 week as the first line therapy or the triple therapy with vonoprazan 20 mg bid, metronidazole 250 mg bid and amoxicillin 750 mg bid for 1 week as the second line therapy. The eradication rates attained with these regimens are measured.
Receives: Drug: vonoprazan 20 mg bid; Drug: Amoxicillin 750 mg bid; Drug: Clarithromycin 200 mg bid; Drug: Metronidazole 250 mg bid

What is being measured

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

  1. The success or failure of eradication

    Success or failure of eradication of H. pylor is to be diagnosed at 4 to 8 weeks after the end of the eradication therapy by13C-urea breath test.

    Measured: 4 to 8 weeks after the end of the eradication therapy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse events

    Adverse events related that happen during 1 week-treatments, such as diarrhea, loose stool, abdominal pain, and allergic reaction are checked by interview when patients visit the hospital to undergo the 13C-urea breath test for the diagnosis of success or failure of eradication of H. pylori.

    Measured: 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing vonoprazan 20 mg bid, Amoxicillin 500 mg tid and Amoxicillin 750 mg bid in people with Gastritis Associated With Helicobacter Pylori, run by Hamamatsu University at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 9 Apr 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 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?

The success or failure of eradication (time frame: 4 to 8 weeks after the end of the eradication therapy). 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 Apr 2019.
