About this study

Official title: Efficacy of DA-5204 (Stillen 2X®) for Patients With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Pilot Study

This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical Study to evaluate the efficacy of DA-5204 and proton pump inhibitor combination therapy compared with proton pump inhibitor alone therapy in patients with gastroesophageal reflux Disease.

Read the detailed description

Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a condition in which reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus causes troublesome symptoms, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation.

Proton pump inhibitors, as acid suppressor, are the agents recommended as the first-line treatment for gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, approximately 20-30% of patients have insufficient effect on this therapy alone.

DA-5204 is a medicine based on Artemisia asiatica 95% ethanol extract. DA-5204 has been administered to treat gastritis and gastric ulcers with antioxidative and cytoprotective actions on gastric mucosal damage. Therefore, we expect DA-5204 to be effective in reflux esophagitis (esophageal mucosal injury).

What is being measured

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

  1. Endoscopically effective improvement

    A percentage of subjects showed effective improvement of erosive esophagitis (esophageal mucosal injury) by the endoscopy.

    The definition of "effective improvement" is the subjects showed score changed from 3 to 0, from 2 to 0, or from 3 to 1.

    [score 0(LA grade N): normal mucosa, score 1(LA grade M): minimal changes to the mucosa such as erythema, blurring and/or whitish turbidity, score 2(LA grade A): non-confluent mucosal breaks <5 mm in length, score 3(LA grade B): non-confluent mucosal breaks ≥5 mm in length]

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. Endoscopically complete improvement

    A percentage of subjects showed complete improvement of erosive esophagitis (esophageal mucosal injury) by the endoscopy.

    The definition of "complete improvement" is the subjects showed score changed from 3 to 0 or from 2 to 0.

    Measured: 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Symptom improvement

    A percentage of subjects showed sufficient improvement of reflux symptom score from Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Questionnaire (GerdQ).

    The definition of "sufficient improvement" is the subjects showed ≥50% reduction from the initial sum of scores for GerdQ.

    Measured: 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Pantoprazole and DA-5204 in people with Esophageal Disease, run by Seoul National University Hospital 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 3 inclusion and 11 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 Jun 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 South Korea. 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?

Endoscopically effective improvement (time frame: 4 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Jun 2019.
