Filter by:This randomized controlled clinical trial will compare the eradication efficacy of bismuth-metronidazole triple therapy (PPI+bismuth+ metronidazole) with that of bismuth-metronidazole quadruple therapy (PPI+bismuth+ metronidazole+ amoxicillin) for Helicobacter pylori first-line treatment. The completion of this trial will expand new therapy for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori, which can not only ensure clinical efficacy, but also reduce the use of antibiotics.
Comparison Efficacy of two weeks Therapy with Doxycycline,levofloxacine,Tinadizole Versus Levofloxacine,Tinadizole,Amocillin on Eradication of Helicobacter Pylori in Syrian population.
Reverse hybrid therapy achieves a higher eradication rate than triple therapy plus bismuth therapy remains unanswered.
Helicobacter pylori infection causes active peptic ulcer disease and related complications like bleeding and pyloric obstruction. Usually, clinicians tended to treat Helicobacter pylori infection after active peptic ulcer disease and related complicaitons getting healed, which spent time and money. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous administration of metronidazole, levofloxacin and esomeprazole triple therapy in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection combined with peptic ulcer disease related complications.
Study of Nitazoxanide (NTZ) based therapeutic regimens for Helicobacter pylori in children
Aim: Therefore, we aimed to 1. compare the efficacy of susceptibility testing guided therapy vs. empirical therapy in the third-line eradication for refractory H. pylori infection 2. assess the long-term impact of eradication therapy on the antibiotic resistance and microbiota of the gut flora and the metabolic factors. Methods: This will be a multi-center, open labeled trial Patients: 360 patients with failure to H. pylori eradication for at least two times will be enrolled Determination of antibiotic resistance of H. pylori: Agar dilution test will be used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations of levofloxacin, tetracycline, rifabutin, and clarithromycin to guide the selection of antibiotics. Treatment regimens and assignment: Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either one of the treatments (A) Susceptibility testing guided therapy or (B) Empirical therapy Outcome Measurement: Primary End Point: Eradication rate will be evaluated according to Intent-to-treat (ITT) analyses. Secondary End Point: 1. Eradication rate according to per protocol analysis (PP analysis); 2. Frequency of adverse effects.
People nowadays tend to have irregular diet and routine due to the stress at work. This condition may cause intestinal microflora imbalance, and in the long term may lead to constipation, diarrhea, gastroenteritis, gastric ulcer and other gastrointestinal diseases. Helicobacter pylori infection, which can trigger gastrointestinal inflammation and ulcer, is commonly treated by antibiotics. This treatment, however, can reduce the diversity of the intestinal microflora, causing diarrhea, flatulence and nausea. Clinical trials showed that probiotics and prebiotics supplementation could regulate gastrointestinal function, including alleviating constipation, ameliorating antibiotic-associated diarrhea and flatulence, enhancing the effect of H. pylori treatment, and restoring the balance of intestinal microflora. This Probiotics product is a supplement containing several types of probiotics and prebiotics which has been marketed for years. This project aims to observe the effectiveness of Probiotics product consumption by H. pylori-infected patients in relieving the gastrointestinal symptoms and restoring their intestinal microflora.
The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the effectiveness of furazolidone-tetracycline-containing and tinidazole-tetracycline-containing quadruple regimens for the rescue treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients allergic to penicillin.
Gastric cancer afflicts 27,000 Americans annually and carries a dismal prognosis. One reason for poor outcomes is late diagnosis, as the majority of gastric cancers in the United States are diagnosed at a relatively advanced stage where curative resection is unlikely. Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is a precancerous change of the stomach which increases risk for subsequent gastric cancer multiple-fold. The Gastric Precancerous Conditions Study (GAPS) is an observational study with two over-arching objectives: 1) improve the non-invasive identification of patients with GIM, and 2) develop biological markers to predict the subset of GIM which will progress onto gastric cancer. To achieve Aim 1, a case-control study (N=300 pairs) matching cases of GIM with age-/gender-matched controls will be recruited form the population of subjects undergoing clinically-indicated endoscopy. Determination of gastric pathology will be made by two, independent gastrointestinal pathologists. At time of endoscopy, a detailed clinical questionnaire is administered by face-to-face interview. Saliva and blood is collected prior to endoscopy. At time of endoscopy, protocoled clinical biopsies (per Revised Sydney Protocol) as well as additional research specimens are collected. Scoring of GIM will be performed based on the Operative Link for GIM scoring system. To achieve Aim 2, patients with histologically-confirmed GIM (N=300) will be followed longitudinally. Biennial endoscopic surveillance will be performed, with repeat biopsies, specimen collection, and histologic scoring. Progression of GIM will be defined as upstaging of GIM score, or development of either dysplasia or carcinoma on any biopsy.
Clarithromycin-containing triple therapy is still the primary therapy approved by the Korean government. However, studies of antibiotic resistance have shown that regional resistance patterns to antibiotics such as clarithromycin are increasing. Recent studies show that examining genotype resistance is effective in eradication. Currently, dual priming oligonucleotide-polymerase chain reaction (DPO-PCR) is used to measure clarithromycin resistance. No study has compared the duration of eradication regimens according to DPO-PCR results. This study compares the eradication rate of 7-day triple therapy with 14-day triple therapy in clarithromycin susceptible strains from DPO-PCR. The investigators also aimed to compare the eradication rates of 7-day bismuth quadruple therapy with 14-day bismuth quadruple therapy from clarithromycin-resistant strains from DPO-PCR.
