Trial summary

Gastric acid depressant play a major role in an H. pylori eradication therapy by (1) increasing the intragastric pH, which improves antibiotic stability and bioavailability; (2) increasing the intragastric pH to 6 or more, which prompts H. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Helicobacter Pylori Eradication Rates Between Twice- and Four-times-daily Amoxicillin Administration in 2-week Tegoprazan-based Triple Therapy: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis

Gastric acid depressant play a major role in an H. pylori eradication therapy by (1) increasing the intragastric pH, which improves antibiotic stability and bioavailability; (2) increasing the intragastric pH to 6 or more, which prompts H. pylori to replicate and thus become more sensitive to antibiotics that are effective only against replicating bacteria, such as amoxicillin; (3) increasing the concentration of antibiotics in the stomach. Of antimicrobial agents against H. pylori, amoxicillin is a penicillin derivative that inhibits the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. Therefore, amoxicillin's bactericidal effect requires the bacteria to be replicating. Amoxicillin is excreted by the kidneys, the plasma half-life is approximately 1 hour, and the bactericidal effect is time dependent. Theoretically, amoxicillin should be given 3 or 4 times daily to maximize the time above minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) However, in most H. pylori eradication therapies, amoxicillin is given twice daily, where the estimated time above MIC attained by twice daily dosing is insufficient for amoxicillin. Because most strains of H. pylori are sensitive to amoxicillin, 3 or 4 times daily administration may be appropriate to increase the H. pylori eradication success. Nevertheless, data regarding the amoxicillin dosing interval for successful H. pylori eradication are lacking.

Read the detailed description

The investigators aim to compare the H. pylori eradication rates between twice- and four-times-daily amoxicillin administration in 2-week tegoprazan-based triple therapy. Secondary outcomes are treatment compliance and drug-related adverse event rates.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of H.Pylori Infection, run by Soonchunhyang 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 2 inclusion and 9 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 30 Apr 2025. 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.

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?

H. pylori eradication rates (time frame: 6 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 30 Apr 2025.
