Trial summary

For ERD(erosive reflux disease), which pathogenesis is mainly the acid reflux mechanism, primary treatment is therefore PPI. However, NERD(non-erosive reflux disease) is much more complex than ERD and there are more factors causing the typical symptoms. Read more about this study

About this study

For ERD(erosive reflux disease), which pathogenesis is mainly the acid reflux mechanism, primary treatment is therefore PPI. However, NERD(non-erosive reflux disease) is much more complex than ERD and there are more factors causing the typical symptoms. As a result, there is no consensus for the treatment of NERD besides using PPI similar to GERD(gastroesophageal reflux diseas). This study intent to evaluate the effect of PPI(Esomezol) on NERD patients and analyze the improvement of symptoms and the factors related to the result.

Read the detailed description

(1) Among GERD patients, EGD(esophagogastroduodenoscopy) must be done before 6 months and must prove there is no erosive lesion. (2) During EGD, esophagus mucosa histology will be taken for evaluation. (3) For NERD patients, Esomezol is given once a day (before breakfast meal), for whole 8 weeks. (4) PAGI-SYM and HAD-K is evaluated and score just before the administration of PPI, 4weeks after and 8weeks after the study initiation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PPIDrug

    Also called Esomezol®

    After the diagnosis of NERD through patient's symptom and endoscopy, PPI (esomezol) will be given for 8 weeks. The effect of PPI for NERD patients will be analyzed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of PAGI-SYM score (0-2) patients after 8 weeks of PPI(Esomezol)

    Scoring the PAGI-SYM to analyze the satisfaction of symptoms (heartburn and regurgitation) after 8 weeks of PPI administration to NERD patients

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The analysis of factors affecting the PAGI-SYM inculding immunolgic array and esophagus mucosal microbiota

    The analysis of complete symptom (regurgitation, heartburn) remission (PAGI-SYM score 0) after 8weeks of PPI

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PPI in people with Non-erosive Gatroesophageal Reflux Disease, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Proportion of PAGI-SYM score (0-2) patients after 8 weeks of PPI(Esomezol) (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 2 Jan 2020.
