About this study

Official title: Efficacies of Two Bismuth Quadruple Therapies in the Second-line Treatment of H Pylori Infection - a Multi-center Randomized Controlled Trial

From the profiles of antibiotic susceptibility data following eradication therapy, tetracycline, amoxicillin and levofloxacin are all good candidates of antibiotics used in the rescue treatment.

Read the detailed description

The H pylori-infected adult patients with failure of standard triple therapy and H pylori-infected adult patients with failure of non-bismuth quadruple therapy are randomly assigned to either TL quadruple therapy (esomeprazole-bismuth-tetracycline-levofloxacin regimen) or AL quadruple therapy (esomeprazole-bismuth-amoxicillin-levofloxacin regimen) for 10 days. Repeated endoscopy with rapid urease test, histological examination and culture or urea breath tests is performed at six weeks after the end of anti-H pylori therapy.

Being tested
10d TL quadruple therapy, 10d AL quadruple therapy
Keywords
Helicobacter pylori, Eradication rate, Rescue treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 10d TL quadruple therapy and 10d AL quadruple therapy in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection, run by Ping-I (William) Hsu, M.D. at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 5 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 26 Oct 2023. 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 Taiwan. 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.

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?

Number of Participants in Which H. Pylori Was Eradicated (time frame: sixth week after the end of anti- H. pylori 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 26 Oct 2023.
