Real Life: Treatment Response in Patients With Symptoms Due to Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Either With or Without Esophagitis Treated With Pantoprazole Sodium 40 mg o.d. Over 8 Weeks
The aim of the present study is to identify factors (such as symptom patterns and symptom scores) that influence the response to treatment with pantoprazole using different evaluation methods (e.g., ReQuest™ questionnaire, patient and investigator assessment). Pantoprazole will be administered once daily in the morning at one dose level. The study duration consists of a treatment period of 8 weeks. The study will provide further data on safety and tolerability of pantoprazole.

Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Pantoprazole for Sleepiness Associated With Acid Reflux and Obstructive Sleep Disordered Breathing
The purpose of this study is to determine if using Pantoprazole decreases your daytime sleepiness and improves your reaction time when compared to using a placebo (sugar pill).

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of the Clinical Outcomes, Safety and Tolerability of Multiple Doses of Pantoprazole Sodium Enteric-Coated Spheroids in Children Ages 1 to 5 With Endoscopically Proven Symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
To evaluate the clinical outcomes of treatment with oral pantoprazole in children 1 through 5 years of age with endoscopically proven symptomatic GERD.

A Single-Blind Single Arm Study to Validate the Reflux Disease Questionnaire (RDQ) for the Diagnosis of Reflux Disease in Primary Care in Patients Treated With Esomeprazole 40 mg o.d.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of the Reflux Disease Questionnaire (RDQ) as a diagnostic test for gastroesophageal reflux disease. Symptom evaluation by the RDQ will be compared with other established approaches to the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in a primary care patient population with symptoms thought to be of upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract origin.

The Impact of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease in Sleep Disorders: A Pilot Investigation of Rabeprazole, 20 mg Twice Daily for the Relief of GERD-Related Insomnia.
This study will investigate Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)as a cause of sleep disturbance. Patients with GERD may experience all or some of the following symptoms: stomach acid or partially digested food re-entering the esophagus (which is sometimes referred to as heartburn or regurgitation) and belching. Even very small, unnoticeable amounts of rising stomach acid may cause patients to wake up during the night. This study will also investigate the effect of Rabeprazole, (brand name Aciphex) on patients with known insomnia. Rabeprazole is an FDA approved medication already marketed for the treatment of GERD.

Chronic Cough and Reflux Disease: A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo Controlled Trial of High Dose Proton Pump Inhibition
The purpose of this research study is to investigate different doses of proton pump inhibitors in reducing cough symptoms felt to be associated with Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Proton pump inhibitors are medicines used to treat GERD, which work by lowering the amount of acid in the stomach. The proton pump inhibitor used in this study is called, Esomeprazole (brand name Nexium), and is already marketed for treating GERD. Patients with GERD may experience all or some of the following symptoms: stomach acid or partially digested food re-entering the esophagus (which is sometimes referred to as heartburn or regurgitation), belching and coughing. Even very small, unnoticeable amounts of rising stomach acid may cause patients to cough. Because there may be a link between chronic cough and GERD, study doctors are interested in learning if giving high-dose Nexium (40 milligrams, twice daily) will help in treating chronic cough.

PRISM: Determination of the Performance Characteristics of ReQuest (TradeMark) in Practice in the Stepped Down Management of GORD
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a medical condition affecting the stomach and esophagus. GERD occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter does not close properly and stomach contents leaks back (refluxes) into the esophagus. GERD is one of the most common medical disorders, with estimates of up to 50% of adults reporting reflux symptoms. Proton pump inhibitors such as pantoprazole, can relieve symptoms of GERD in a large proportion of patients. Of particular interest in GERD is the assessment of symptom severity and quality of life, and the response to treatment. Therefore, a questionnaire was developed to assess GERD symptoms (`ReQuest TradeMark in Practice`). An important point to consider when using such a questionnaire is to follow the patients´ medical response to treatment and note whether a patient needs to change dosing, such as changing from full dose to half dose, or vice versa. The aim of the study is to determine the value of the questionnaire (`ReQuest TradeMark in Practice`) according to treating physicians` clinical judgment when using pantoprazole at full and half dose. The study duration consists of a pre-treatment periods (0-2 weeks) and two treatment period (8 weeks each). During the first treatment period, pantoprazole will be administered once daily at full dose (40 mg). During the second treatment period, pantoprazole will be administered once daily at half dose (20 mg). The study will provide further data on safety and tolerability of pantoprazole.

Outcomes After Medical and Surgical Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
The aims of this study are to create a prospective data base to evaluate the long term outcomes of medical and surgical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); to measure standard outcomes as well as patient derived outcomes such as general and disease specific quality of life (QOL) issues and patient satisfaction; to refine the parameters that may identify patients who will benefit from surgery for GERD; and to identify possible determinants of failure of both medical and surgical treatments of reflux.
