About this study

Official title: Helicobacter Pylori First-line Treatment Containing Tetracycline in Patients Allergic to Penicillin:a Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the effectiveness of levofloxacin-tetracycline -containing and tinidazole-tetracycline-containing quadruple regimens for the primary treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients allergic to penicillin.

Read the detailed description

Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori), which infects about 50% of the global population, has been recognized as a main risk factor of multiple gastric pathologies, especially non-cardiac gastric cancer. Strongly evidence supports that H.pylori eradication is an effective approach to reduce the incidence of those pathologies.However,Helicobacter pylori eradication is a challenge in patients allergic to penicillin.

Therefore, the investigators aim to assess and compare the effectiveness of levofloxacin-tetracycline -containing and tinidazole-tetracycline-containing quadruple regimens for the primary treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients allergic to penicillin.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Eradication rates in 2 groups

    Both intention to treat(ITT) and per-protocol(PP) analyses will be used for the assessment of the eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori infections in two groups. The ITT analysis includes all randomly assigned patients who take at least one dose of the study medications. The PP analysis is limited to patients who take over 90% of the study medications and complete follow-up.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The rate of improving dyspepsia symptoms after Helicobacter pylori eradication

    Dyspepsia symptoms will be measured using a 8-point Likert scale, and patients rate their symptoms from 0 (none) to 8 (severe) before and after the Helicobacter pylori eradication.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. The rate of adverse events happening

    Similarly, adverse events will also be measured by the Likert scale.

    Measured: 24 months

  3. The rate of good compliance

    Patients taken over 90% of drugs are considered to have a good compliance.

    Measured: 24 months

A Phase 4 study testing Levofloxacin and tinidazole in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection, run by Shandong University at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xiuli Zuo, PhD,MD (15588818685 ext. 053188369277, zuoxiuli@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Eradication rates in 2 groups (time frame: 24 months). 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 18 Nov 2021.
