10 day concomitant versus 14 day hybrid regimen as first line H. pylori eradication treatment in a high clarithromycin resistance area. A multicenter, randomized, equivalence trial.
The inviestigators aimed to compare the efficacy of genotypic resistance guided versus susceptibility testing guided therapy in the third line treatment for refractory H. pylori infection. Hypothesis:The investigators hypothesized that genotypic resistance guided sequential therapy is non-inferior to empiric therapy in the third line treatment for refractory H. pylori infection. Methods: This multicenter, open label, parallel group, randomized trial will be conducted since 2017.07.20. Adult (≥20 years old) patients who failed from at least two eradication therapies for H. pylori infection will be enrolled. Genotypic and phenotypic resistances will be determined in patients who failed from at least two eradication therapies by polymerase-chain-reaction with direct sequencing and E-test and agar dilution test, respectively. Eligible patients will be randomized into either one of the treatment groups (A) genotypic resistance guided therapy; or (B) susceptibility testing guided therapy. Outcome Measurement The primary outcome is the eradication rate in the third line treatment (genotypic versus susceptibility testing guided therapy) according to intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis.
the effect of eradication of H-pylori in pregnant patients with iron deficiency anemia on the level of hemoglobin after iron therapy.
This study will assess the efficacy, adoption, and impact of an integrated intervention to improve adherence to recommended stomach cancer prevention guidelines (H. pylori test-and-treat) for at-risk Chinese Americans in NYC. The integrated multifaceted theory-based intervention involves: 1) a health systems-level intervention using electronic health record (EHR)-based tools to facilitate H. pylori test-and-treat strategies; and 2) a community-engaged culturally and linguistically adapted CHW-led patient navigation program we are currently pilot testing for feasibility and acceptability. Using a 2-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, > 144 Chinese American patients across NYC safety net hospital endoscopy clinics and primary health centers will participate.
Background: Helicobacter pylori infection, which affects over 50% of the global population, is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases in the world. H. pylori infection causes chronic active gastritis and is associated with peptic ulcer, lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue and gastric cancer. The colonization of H. pylori in the hostile gastric environment is determined by the complex interactions among bacterial, environmental and host factors. Because of the emergence of antibiotic resistance and adverse drug reactions such as diarrhea, the successful rates with standard triple therapy for H. pylori eradication are falling. Vitamin D or its analogues was found to induce autophagy in keratinocytes, macrophages, and various cancer cell types. Our preliminary findings indicated that 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 could induce cathelicidin expression and autophagy in cultured human gastric epithelial HFE-145 cells and reduced the intracellular survival of H. pylori in a co-culture system. It was also found that cathelicidin alone reduced the survival of drug-resistant strain of H. pylori. 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 also significantly reduced H. pylori colonization in mice, perhaps through the induction of cathelicidin in the stomach. These findings suggest that vitamin D not only could control H. pylori but also its drug-resistant strains in humans. Emerging evidence suggest that vitamin D might be a cost-effective prophylactic and possibly therapeutic antimicrobial agent for the control and eradication of H. pylori. Since vitamin D acts through mechanisms independent of standard antibiotics, it is expected that vitamin D will be equally efficacious for controlling and eradicating drug-resistant strains of H. pylori. The investigators herein propose that vitamin D in combination of standard antimicrobial therapeutics could improve the eradication rates of drug-resistant H. pylori.
Patients infected with H. pylori are treated with rabeprazole 10 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and CAM 200 mg bid or esomeprazole 20 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and CAM 200 mg bid. Eradication rates are compared. Patients who have ever failed in eradication by CAM-based regimen are treated with rabeprazole 10 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and MNZ 250 mg bid or esomeprazole 20 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and MNZ 250 mg bid.
Patients infected with H. pylori are treated with the individualized regimen which is based on the mutation of 23S rRNA of H. pylori.
The study is aimed to determine the potential of volatile marker testing for identification of gastrointestinal cancers (in particular - colorectal and gastric cancers), the related precancerous lesions in the stomach and colon. The study will be addressing the role of confounding factors, including lifestyle factors, diet, smoking as well as addressing the potential role of microbiota in the composition of exhaled volatile markers.
The great diversity of regimens and treatment lines, the different efficacy of these, mostly due to the increase in bacterial antibiotic resistance and regional differences, requires a continuous critical analysis of clinical practice, evaluating systematically the efficacy and safety of the different regimens and the cost-effectiveness of the different diagnostic-therapeutic strategies. This will help in the design of an efficient and optimized treatment that will reduce number of re-treatments, diagnostic tests and the appearance of associated pathologies such as peptic ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding and, probably, gastric cancers. Therefore, the evaluation of real clinical practice using non-interventionist registries will help to improve the design and organization of European Consensus on the management of H. pylori infection, which is the best way to establish healthcare efficiency. Primary aim To obtain a database registering systematically over a year a large and representative sample of routine clinical practice of European gastroenterologists in order to produce descriptive studies of the management of H. pylori infection. Secondary aims 1. To evaluate H. pylori infection consensus and clinical guidelines implementation in different countries. 2. To perform studies focused on epidemiology, efficacy and safety of the commonly used treatments to eradicate H. pylori. 3. To evaluate accessibility to healthcare technologies and drugs used in the management of H. pylori infection. 4. To allow the development of partial and specific analysis by the participating researchers after approval by the Registry's Scientific Committee Methodology Non-interventionist prospective multicentre international registry promoted by the European Helicobacter Study Group. A renowned gastroenterologist from each country was selected as Local Coordinator (30 countries). They will in turn select up to ten gastroenterologists per country that will register the routine clinical practice consultations they receive over 10 years in an electronic Case Report Form (e-CRF). Variables retrieved will include clinical, diagnostic, treatment, eradication confirmation and outcome data. The database will allow researchers to perform specific subanalysis after approval by the Scientific Committee of the study.
