Filter by:This study has two major goals: 1. To determine the effects of bile salts on causing DNA injury and activating signaling pathways that promote growth in cells from the esophagus of patients who have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) 2. To determine whether changes in bile composition induced by treating patients with a bile salt called ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) can alter DNA injury, signaling pathway activation and other types of damage in cells from the esophagus of patients who have GERD.
The study objective is to evaluate the relative merits, safety and effectiveness of Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF) in GERD patients currently treated with daily Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and the safety of rabeprazole sodium for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in newborns and pre-term infants.
Recently, total fundoplication followed by laparoscopic esophageal hiatoplasty has been the most common surgical treatment for gastro-esophageal reflux. Although this procedure is effective, some patients still develop complications. Indeed, dividing the short gastric vessels is claimed by many authors to confer benefit to patients even it could not be proved in other studies. In an attempt to evaluate the role of dividing the short gastric vessels and its long-term impact on the surgical treatment of the gastro-esophageal reflux, the investigators initiated a randomized clinical trial to clarify this important fact. Patients were recruited for this trial and short-term results had been already published in a national journal. The investigators are now registering this study which particularly focuses on the endoscopic outcome evaluated on long-term basis after gastro-esophageal reflux surgical treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients with well-controlled heartburn symptoms on twice-daily proton pump inhibitor therapy remain well-controlled after stepping down to once-daily (QD) dexlansoprazole modified release (MR) 30 mg.
The purpose of this study is to asses the pharmacokinetics and safety of dexlansoprazole modified release (MR), once daily (QD), in adolescent subjects (age 12-17 years old) with Symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.
The purpose of this study is to describe common treatment pathways, to collect health care utilization data and to assess symptom load as well as impact of symptoms on daily life in GERD patients who are partial-responders to PPI treatment.
The aim of this project is to compare the GERD clinical outcomes in patients where a structured pathway using the GerdQ questionnaire is implemented compared with the clinical outcomes of those treated without this implementation. This is a European project with 5 participating countries (Austria, Italy, Norway, Spain and Sweden). Due to different characteristics regarding the actual management of this disease in the 5 countries, each country had the flexibility to introduce design differences and changes in the study protocol.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of rabeprazole extended release 50 mg (once daily) versus ranitidine 150 mg (twice daily) in the maintenance of complete healing in subjects with healed erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (eGERD).
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of rabeprazole extended release (ER) 50 mg (once daily) versus ranitidine 150 mg (twice daily) in the maintenance of complete healing in subjects with healed erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (eGERD).
