Filter by:This study is designed to compare the eradication rates,safety and compliance of tailored therapy to those of standard triple therapy in children with H. pylori infection. The primary purpose is to compare the eradication rates of children with H. pylori infection treated with tailored therapy to those treated with standard triple therapy. The secondary purpose is to evaluate the safety, compliance and factors that might affect eradication rates.
Asia Pacific Consensus states that levofloxacin-based triple therapy as an alternative second-line therapy after Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication failure when bismuth salts are not available. The investigators compare the efficacies of 10-day levofloxacin-based sequential therapy and 10-day triple therapy in the treatment for patients after failure of standard triple therapy and to determine what clinical and bacterial factors influencing the efficacy of salvage regimens.
The H pylori infection remains a public health problem. The eradication rate with the first line triple therapy (PPI-amoxicillin-clarithromycin) is insufficient (estimated at 70%) due to the frequency of resistance to clarithromycin, which reaches 21% in France. Until now,European and French consensus recomended tofavor sequential therapy (5 days PPI-amoxicillin and 5 days PPI-clarithromycin-metronidazole) or quadruple bismuth therapy ( 10 days PPI-tetracyclin,-metronidazole- bismuth). Studies in countries with low prevalence of clarithromycin resistance reported eradication rate of 85% with sequential therapy and reported a low impact of clarithromycin resistance on the effectiveness of this treatment. However, recent studies suggest a greater impact of clarithromycin resistance. Recent meta-analysis shows that empiric sequential therapy is less efficacious than concomitant quadruple therapy. Therefore, recent Maastricht V / Florence meeting October 7-8 2015) recommended to abandon sequential therapy and to favor 14 days concomitant therapy in first line in order to reach an eradication rate >90%. In a multicenter randomized clinical trial (HELICOSTIC 2010-2011 AO ICST 2009), we compared a triple therapy guided by the results of a PCR test that detects resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin (HelicoDR ®) to empirical triple therapy (PPI-amoxicillin-clarithromycin). 1384 patients and among them 526 infected patients were enrolled in 10 centers. The results in 415 patients were 73.1% for the empirical treatment versus 85.5% (p <0.001) for the treatment guided by PCR HelicoDR®. This study also demonstrated the limits of the test HelicoDR®: onerous, possibility of contamination, little practical contribution of the determination of resistance to quinolones. Moreover, it has been shown that triple therapy efficiency could be optimized by increasing duration up to 14 days and increasing dose of PPI to 40mg b.d;.and eradications rates > 90% were reported with susceptible to clarithromycin strains. Adverse events are less common with optimized triple therapy than with concomitant quadruple therapy. The main objective is to compare the efficacy of optimized triple therapy guided by the results of a PCR test (eradication rates 90% hypothesized) with quadruple concomitant therapy (eradication rate 90% hypothesized). The secondary objective is to determine side effects of optimized guided triple therapy as well as the quadruple concomitant therapy in France.
The investigators will performed a large-scale multi center trial to compare the efficacy of a high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) with that of standard therapies in treatment-naive (n = 300) patients with Hp infection. Consecutive symptomatic patients will be recruited in Israel and Spain when tested positive to Hp with serology and 13C urea breath test (13C-UBT) due to symptoms. Patients with gastric cancer, MALT lymphoma, and younger than 18 or older than 80 years old will be excluded. All patients will be naive to eradication therapy and will be randomized into one of three groups: Group 1: Nexium 40 mg and amoxicillin 1.5 gr twice daily for 14 days Group 2: Nexium 40 mg and doxycycline 200 mg twice a day Group 3: Triple therapy of Nexium 20 mg, clarythromycin 500 mg, and amoxicillin 1gr twice a day for 10 days (regular accepted treatment). All treatments will be stopped for a month and then 13CUBT will be repeated. The primary aim of the study is to assess eradication success, intentioned to treat and per protocol in the three treatment regimens. The secondary aim of the study is to assess the safety of high dose amoxicillin and doxycycline.
Reverse hybrid therapy achieves a higher eradication rate than bismuth quadruple therapy remained unanswered.
From the profiles of antibiotic susceptibility data following eradication therapy, tetracycline, amoxicillin and levofloxacin are all good candidates of antibiotics used in the rescue treatment.
According the Maastricht IV consensus report publish in the Gut 2012, bismuth containing quadruple therapy was suggested to be the first choice for eradication therapy of Helicobacter pylori in the area with high clarithromycin resistance. Whether hybrid therapy or 14-day bismuth containing quadruple therapy can replace standard triple therapy as the recommended first-line treatment is unknown. The investigators compared the efficacy of 14-day hybrid therapy and 14-day bismuth containing quadruple therapy in first-line treatment.
Dexlansoprazole MR is the R-enantiomer of lansoprazole that is delivered by a dual delayed release formulation. It is effective for symptom control of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, its efficacy in the treatment of H.pylori infection remains unclear. This study was conducted to investigate whether the efficacy of single-dose dexlansoprazole MR-based triple therapy was non-inferior to double-dose rabeprazole-based triple therapy in the treatment of H.pylori infection.
Up to now, there is few randomized, large scale study prospectively and simultaneously comparing the efficacy, adverse effects and patient adherence of high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) as rescue regimens for H. pylori eradication. The aims of this study are: 1. to compare the efficacy of HDDT, and BQT as rescue regimen in H. pylori eradication; 2. to compare the patient adherence and adverse effects of these treatment regimens; 3. to investigate factors that may influence H. pylori eradication by these treatment regimens.
