Filter by:Traditionally, H pylori infection has been treated with conventional triple therapy. This includes amoxicillin, clarithromycin and a proton pump inhibitor all given daily for 10-14 days. In Europe, the guidelines now advocate treatment of H pylori with sequential therapy which is 5 days of amoxicillin therapy with proton pump inhibitor followed by 5 days of clarithromycin, metronidazole, and proton pump inhibitor with better response rates. We hypothesize that H. pylori resistance pattern and treatment response rates observed in Europe will not be predictive of resistance patterns and response rates in the United States.
Endonase, a kind of protease, is known to cause both extensive degradation of mucins and a reduction in mucus viscosity. As part of the search for more effective forms of therapy against H. pylori when it colonizes not only the surface of the surface mucosal cells but also the surface mucous gel layer covering the mucosal surface of the stomach. The investigators decided to investigate whether or not endonase might have additive effect of pronase on the efficacy of the second-line eradication therapy against Helicobacter pylori.
Addition of L. reuteri to the standard triple therapy improves H. Pylori treatment outcomes.
This prospective controlled randomized open-label clinical trial is designed to determine the eradication rate of 7-day levofloxacin, amoxicillin/clavulanate and rabeprazole regimen compared with 7-day standard triple therapy for adults infected with Helicobacter pylori in Eastern Taiwan.
The purpose of this study is to compare the eradication efficacy of 10-day triple therapy with 10-day sequential therapy with tetracycline or metronidazole.
This prospective controlled randomized open-label clinical trial is designed to determine the optimal eradication rate of rabeprazole based sequential-concommitant hybrid therapies for adults infected with Helicobacter pylori in Eastern Taiwan. Enrolled patients will receive 3, 5 or 7 days of pre-concommitant (sequential part) treatment with rabeprazole + amoxicillin, then 7 days of concommitant treatment with rabeprazole + amoxicillin + clarithromycin + metronidazole.
A five day quadruple concomitant therapy is as effective and safe as a 10 day sequential therapy for eradication of H. pylori infection.
The efficacy of traditional triple therapy has been decreased to such an unacceptable level as 70% in many areas. The study is based on the hypothesis: the most important factors which influence the effect of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication included acid suppression intensity and sensitivity of antibiotics. So the investigators chose dual therapy because it is simple and verified to be useful. Rabeprazole, as a new proton pump inhibitor (PPI), is reported to be less susceptible to the influence of genetic polymorphisms for CYP2C19. So it has a greater and faster acid suppression effect compared to other PPIs. Amoxicillin is one of effective antibiotics to H. pylori with few side effects. The antibiotic resistance of Amoxicillin is no more than 3% in China. The purpose of our trial is to evaluate and compare the efficacy and safety of dual therapy regimens with different doses of Rabeprazole for initial treatment of H. pylori infection.
The objective of this study is to elucidate the role of drinking water derived from the public source in Lima, Peru and transmission of H. pylori infection using genotypic techniques.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy of triple therapy with TAK-438, Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin, twice daily (BID) by demonstrating its non-inferiority to triple therapy with Lansoprazole, Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin in H. pylori-positive patients with scarred gastric or duodenal ulcers.
