About this study

Official title: A Phase 3 Double-blind Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Dexlansoprazole (30 mg QD) Compared to Placebo on Heartburn Relief in Subjects With Symptomatic Nonerosive Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of dexlansoprazole compared to placebo in relief of daytime and nighttime heartburn over 4 weeks in Chinese participants with symptomatic non-erosive Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called dexlansoprazole. Dexlansoprazole is being tested to treat heartburn in people who have non-erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This study will look at heartburn relief in people who take dexlansoprazole.

The study will enroll approximately 200 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups with 1:1 ratio -which will remain undisclosed to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need):

  • Dexlansoprazole 30 mg
  • Placebo (dummy inactive pill) - this is a capsule that looks like the study drug but has no active ingredient.

All participants will be asked to take one capsule at the same time each day throughout the study, and will be asked to record any time they have heartburn symptoms in a diary.

This multi-center trial will be conducted in China. The overall time to participate in this study is up to 7 weeks. Participants will make 4 visits to the clinic, and will be contacted by telephone 5 to 10 days after the last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Days With Neither Daytime Nor Nighttime Heartburn During Treatment

    The percentage of days with neither daytime nor nighttime heartburn was equal to (=) (the days that were heartburn-free during the treatment period) / (total number of days for which either a daytime or nighttime result was marked during treatment period)*100 percent (%).

    Measured: Up to Week 4

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Days Without Nighttime Heartburn During Treatment

    The percentage of days without nighttime heartburn was = (the days that were heartburn-free during the treatment period) / (total number of days for which nighttime result was marked during treatment period)*100%.

    Measured: Up to Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dexlansoprazole in people with Heartburn and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, run by Takeda at 25 sites in China.

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 12 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 5 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 25 sites in China. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Jul 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Days With Neither Daytime Nor Nighttime Heartburn During Treatment (time frame: Up to Week 4). 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 5 Jul 2019.
