Filter by:H.pylori is an organism which causes gastric inflammation, peptic ulcer disease (PUD), mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and gastric cancer. Practical guideline for treatment of patients with dyspepsia and H.pylori eradication recommended the 14-day triple therapy regimen which had curable about 70% by using proton pump inhibitor (PPI) combined with antibiotics including amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole. Up to date, there has been no evidence about the cure rate for H.pylori eradication with once-daily dose regimen of high dose rabeprazole and levofloxacin based therapy. This research is to study the 7-day and 14-day cure rate of H.pylori eradication treatment with once-daily regimen of high dose rabeprazole-levofloxacin based quadruple therapy.
The Asian-Pacific Consensus Report has recommended that proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-clarithromycin-amoxicillin or metronidazole treatment for 7 to14 days is the first choice treatment for H pylori infection. As a general rule for the treatment of other infectious diseases, clinicians should prescribe therapeutic regimens that have a per-protocol eradication rate ≥ 90% for anti-H pylori therapy. However, the eradication rate of the standard triple therapy has generally declined to unacceptable levels (i.e., 80% or less) recently. The reasons for this fall in efficacy with time may relate to the increasing incidence of clarithromycin-resistant strains of H. pylori. Clarithromycin resistance is the major cause of eradication failure for stand triple therapy. Standard triple therapies should be abandoned in the areas with clarithromycin resistance ≥ 20% because the per-protocol eradication rates of standard therapies are often less than 85% and the intention-to-treat eradication rates are usually less than 80%..7-10 day non-bismuth containing quadruple therapy (Concomitant therapy) had been successful in the presence of clarithromycin resistance. Another novel treatment with 14-day high dose PPI and amoxicilin dual therapy could also attained >90 eradication rate in some studies. This novel treatment is simple and involved only two drugs and the most important of all is that amoxicillin resistance is still 0% in Taiwan . High dose PPI has been used in several studies for H. pylori eradication in order to increase the intra-gastric PH for optimal eradication So far, there is still unclear which one is the best first-line H. pylori eradication regimen with highest eradication rate and least adverse effects. We therefore design a randomized controlled trial to simultaneously assess the efficacy novel 14-day high dose dual therapy by comparing to the 7-day non-bismuth containing quadruple therapy in Taiwan and to investigate the host and bacterial factors predicting the treatment outcomes of eradication therapies.
As the antibiotic resistance increases, the eradication rate of triple therapy is decreasing. Recent guideline recommend the use of bismuth-containing quadruple therapy in areas where clarithromycin resistance is greater than 15%. However, the ideal treatment would be the tailored therapy which choose the antibiotics depending on the antibiotic resistance. This study compared the eradication rates, safety and complicance of tailored therapy compared with empirical bismuth quadruple therapy in the naive patients with H. pylori infection.
The diagnostic tests used to detect Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection are either direct and invasive, as in culture, histology and the rapid urease test (RUT) or noninvasive, such as serology, the 13C-Urea breathe test or the stool antigen test. However, there is no single reference method to detect the H. pylori infection reliably and accurately. The specificity of gastric biopsy cultures is 100%, but the sensitivity is lower. Histology and RUT provide excellent diagnostic accuracy, but the detection of H. pylori is decreased in cases of bleeding peptic ulcers or gastric atrophy. Therefore, it is recommended that at least two tests should agree when defining the H. pylori infection in children. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based methods have been shown to be the most reliable for H. pylori detection in adults and in children. In children, the reference method for H. pylori infection detection is invasive, namely upper digestive endoscopy with gastric biopsy for histology, culture, RUT and qPCR. A noninvasive alternative to detect H. pylori antigen in stools could use a quick one-step immuno-chromatographic technique. The aim of this study was to assess the performance of a new quick, noninvasive, one-step immuno-chromatographic, stool antigen test (ALERE Inc, Jouy-en-Josas, France) for the detection of H. pylori infection in children.
Reverse hybrid therapy achieves a higher eradication rate than bismuth (triple therapy plus bismuth) remains unanswered
The current study is designed to demonstrate the non-inferiority of CJ-12420-based triple therapy (CJ-12420, amoxicillin and clarithromycin) versus lansoprazole-based triple therapy (lansoprazole, amoxicillin and clarithromycin) in H. pylori eradication rate and to evaluate the safety of CJ-12420 following oral administration of either triple therapy twice daily for 7 days in H. pylori positive patients.
Upper gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are frequent in organ transplant recipients. Peptic ulcers and related pathologies such as gastritis and duodenitis are known to occur with increased frequency (20-60%) and severity in renal transplant recipients. The frequency of severe complications is about 10% among transplant recipients and 10% of those might prove fatal As kidney transplant recipients have to take immunosuppressive drugs for a lifetime and because these drugs have many side effects that may not be differentiated from H. pylori infection Thus, in order to reduce the use of medications and subsequently to reduce the drug interactions ,proper detection and management of H pylori infection in those patients is preferred.
Helicobacter pylori infection causes chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and is involved in the development of gastric cancer. Current accepted strategies to eliminate the infection in children are a 10 days sequential treatment (proton pump inhibitor + amoxicillin 5 days followed by proton pump inhibitor + metronidazole + clarithromycin 5 days) or a triple therapy 14 days (proton pump inhibitor + amoxicillin + clarithromycin or metronidazole). However, there is a concern due to the growing resistance of Helicobacter pylori strains to antibiotics, especially clarithromycin, and the decreased efficacy of first line treatment regimens to satisfactorily eliminate the infection in children. Recent data show that combinations using bismuth salts must be considered in adults. Indeed, the efficacy of a 10 days of quadruple therapy with omeprazole plus a single three-in-one capsule containing bismuth subcitrate, metronidazole and tetracycline was shown to be highly superior to the standard triple therapy combining omeprazole, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin without related severe adverse events. The possibility of re-using bismuth salts on a more regular basis in pediatrics is being restudied through a monocentric, prospective, open label, single arm clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of a 10 days colloidal bismuth sub-citrate as an adjunctive therapy in combination with esomeprazole, amoxicillin and metronidazole in children aged 6-17 years, infected by Helicobacter pylori.
Retrospectivly follow-up the outpatients for H pylori eradication failures more than 2 times in the digestive department of Changhai hospital from 2015-2017,analyse the eradication rates and adverse effects of the therapy with 2w's compound lactobacillus acidophilus followed by 10d's bismuth, furazolidone, tetracycline contained quadruple scheme.
In Korea, the first-line therapy to treat Helicobacter pylori (Hp) consists of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and two antibiotics for one week. But, eradication has become less successful due to low compliance and high resistance to the antibiotics. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new treatment strategies that increase the eradication rate and reduce adverse effects. In vitro study, we previously reported that a broccoli sprout extract containing sulforaphane may prevent lipid peroxidation in the gastric mucosa and play a cytoprotective role in Hp-induced gastritis. Also, several studies suggested that probiotics could be effective for improving Hp eradication rate or reducing adverse events. But, their effect for eradication of Hp is not yet conclusive. The aims of this prospective study is to investigate the efficacy of a broccoli sprout extract containing sulforaphane and probiotics for eradication of Hp, compared with standard triple therapy.
