Background and Study Aims.To compare the effectiveness of two regimens, single-dose esomeprazole- and pantoprazole-based triple therapy, forHelicobacter pylori(H. pylori) eradication.Patients and Methods.A total of 453 patients were enrolled forH. pylorieradication. They were randomly assigned to either EAC group (Esomeprazole 40 mg once daily, Amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, Clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily for 7 days) or PAC group (Pantoprazole 40 mg twice daily, Amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, Clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily for 7 days). Follow-up endoscopy or urea breath test was scheduled 12–16 weeks after the eradication to evaluate the therapeutic response.Results.Higher eradication rate in EAC group than PAC group was shown by intention-to-treat analysis (EAC 72% versus PAC 55%,P<0.05) and per-protocol analysis (EAC 91% versus PAC 72%,P<0.05). The incidence of adverse effects (EAC 19% versus PAC 17%,P=0.712) and the compliance (EAC 87% versus PAC 91%,P=0.083) were comparable between these 2 groups.Conclusions.Single-dose esomeprazole-based triple therapy is effective forH. pylorieradication.

BACKGROUND: SuccessfulHelicobacter pylorieradication with the traditional seven-day course of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) triple therapy is declining. Prolonging therapy to either 10 or 14 days is associated with better eradications rates.OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness of 14-day course of triple therapy versus a 10-day course in the treatment ofH pyloriin Canada.METHODS: Consecutive treatment-naive patients with clinical indications forH pylorieradication underwent either a 10-day course or a 14-day course of traditional PPI triple therapy depending on the date of the office visit (an odd date received the 10-day course, whereas an even date received the 14-day treatment).H pylorieradication was ascertained via urea breath test or gastric biopsies performed ≥4 weeks after completion of therapy. Analyses were by both intention to treat and per-protocol.RESULTS: A total of 83 patients were included in the study (31 in the 10-day group and 52 in the 14-day group). In the intention-to-treat analysis, eradication rates were 82.7% (95% CI 70% to 92%) versus 45.2% (95% CI 27% to 64%), favouring the 14-day treatment (P<0.001). Similarly, in the per-protocol analysis, eradication rates were 91.5% (95% CI 80% to 98%) versus 63.6% (95% CI 41% to 83%), favouring the 14-day arm (P=0.01). Adverse events and compliance were not significantly different between the two groups.CONCLUSION: A 14-day course of standard PPI triple therapy was superior to a shorter-duration therapy and should be included as a first-line regimen forH pylorieradication in Canada. The 10-day course of treatment did not achieve an acceptable eradication rate and should no longer be used in this country.

<b><i>Backgrounds/Aims:</i></b> Vonoprazan (VPZ) is the first clinically available potassium competitive acid blocker. This class of agents provides faster and more potent acid inhibition than proton pump inhibitors. Most strains of <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> are sensitive to amoxicillin. We hypothesized that dual therapy with VPZ and amoxicillin would provide the sufficient eradication rate for <i>H. pylori</i> infection. To evaluate this, we compared the eradication rate by the dual VPZ/amoxicillin therapy with that by the standard triple VPZ/amoxicillin/clarithromycin therapy. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Non-inferiority of the eradication rate of <i>H. pylori</i> by the dual therapy with VPZ 20 mg twice daily (bid) and amoxicillin 500 mg 3 times daily (tid) for 1 week to that by the triple therapy with VPZ 20 mg bid, amoxicillin 750 mg bid and clarithromycin 200 mg bid for 1 week was retrospectively studied. Propensity score matching was performed to improve comparability between 2 regimen groups. Successful eradication was diagnosed using the [<sup>13</sup>C]-urea breath test at 1–2 months after the end of eradication therapy. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The intention-to-treat analysis demonstrated that the eradication rate by the dual therapy (92.9%; 95% CI 82.7–98.0%, 52/56) was not inferior to that of the triple therapy (91.9%; 95% CI 80.4–97.0%, 51/56; OR 1.275, 95% CI 0.324–5.017%, <i>p</i> = 0.728). There were no statistically significant differences in incidences of adverse events between 2 regimens. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> VPZ-based dual therapy (VPZ 20 mg bid and amoxicillin 500 mg tid for 1 week) provides an acceptable eradication rate of <i>H. pylori</i> infection without the need for second antimicrobial agents, such as clarithromycin.

BACKGROUND:Helicobacter pylorieradication rates achieved by standard seven-day triple therapies are decreasing in several countries, while a novel 10-day sequential regimen has achieved a very high success rate. A longer 10-day triple therapy, similar to the sequential regimen, was tested to see whether it could achieve a better infection cure rate.METHODS: Patients with nonulcer dyspepsia andH pyloriinfection were randomly assigned to one of the following three therapies: esomeprazole 20 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg and amoxycillin 1 g for seven days or 10 days, or a 10-day sequential regimen including esomeprazole 20 mg plus amoxycillin 1 g for five days and esomeprazole 20 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg and tinidazole 500 mg for the remaining five days. All drugs were given twice daily.H pylorieradication was checked four to six weeks after treatment by using a13C-urea breath test.RESULTS: Overall, 213 patients were enrolled.H pylorieradication was achieved in 75.7% and 77.9%, in 81.7% and 84.1%, and in 94.4% and 97.1% of patients following seven-day or 10-day triple therapy and the 10-day sequential regimen, at intention-to-treat and per protocol analyses, respectively. The eradication rate following the sequential regimen was higher than either seven-day (P=0.002) or 10-day triple therapy (P=0.02), while no significant difference emerged between the latter two regimens (P=0.6).CONCLUSIONS: The 10-day sequential regimen was significantly more effective than both triple regimens, while 10-day triple therapy failed to significantly increase theH pylorieradication rate achieved by the standard seven-day regimen.

This randomized controlled study aimed to evaluate whether adding bismuth to the standard first-line triple therapy could improve the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori. A total of 162 patients with Helicobacter pylori infection were randomly assigned to either the 7-day triple therapy group (RAK regimen: rabeprazole 20 mg, amoxicillin 1 g, and clarithromycin 500 mg bid; n=81) or the bismuth plus triple therapy group (n=81). In the RBAK group, bismuth subcitrate 360 mg twice daily was added to the RAK regimen. A follow-up endoscopy or urea breath test was performed at least 4 weeks after eradication to confirm the treatment efficacy. Comparable compliance and Helicobacter pylori eradication rates were observed in both groups in either intention-to-treat [RAK 72.8% (59/81) versus RBAK 77.8% (63/81); p=0.47] or per protocol analysis [RAK 74.7% (59/79) versus RBAK 81.8% (63/77); p=0.26]. Adverse effects were commonly reported (50.6% for both groups) although most of these did not cause cessation of treatment. The resistance rate was 27.2% for metronidazole and 12.3% for clarithromycin. Adding bismuth to the standard 7-day triple therapy did not substantially increase the eradication rate. Further study is needed clarifying whether extending the duration of RBAK regimen to 10–14 days can lead to a better result.

AbstractThe antibiotics resistances to amoxicilln, tetracycline was low in Taiwan even after multiple H. pylori treatment failures and high dose metronidazole could overcome antibiotics resistance. In real world practice, susceptibility-guided treatments are not widely available. Therefore, we assessed the efficacy of 14-day modified quadruple therapy containing amoxicillin, tetracycline and high dose metronidazole and PPI as an empirical third-line rescue H. pylori treatment. This study was conducted by analyzing 70 consecutive prospectively registered patients who failed two times H. pylori eradication. All of them received endoscopy for H. pylori culture. Seven patients were lost to follow up. They were then treated according to the antibiotic susceptibility testing reports (Cultured group, n=39). Those who failed H. pylori culture were prescribed with a modified 14-day quadruple therapy containing esomeprazole 40 mg twice daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, tetracycline 500 mg four times daily and metronidazole 500 mg three times daily (empirical group, n=24). Follow-up urea breath test was performed 8 weeks later. The eradication rates attained by Cultured group and empirical group were 89.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 72.72%-97.11%) and 58.3% (95% CI=36.61%-77.86%), in the per protocol analysis (p=0.004); 81.4%(95% CI=66.60%-91.61%) and 51.8% (95% CI=31.9%-71.29%), in the intention-to-treat analysis (p=0.014). Culture-guided therapy was the clinical factors influencing the efficacy of H. pylori eradication (OR: 0.16; 95% CI: 0.04-0.60, p=0.006). In conclusion, empirical 14-day modified 3 quadruple therapy is not acceptable as an alternative third-line rescue H. pylori treatment arobably but the success rate of the third-line susceptibility-guided treatment was only moderate (<90%).

Abstract Background Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the most common chronic bacterial infection in the world affecting over 50% of the world’s population. H. pylori is a grade I carcinogen, responsible for the development of 89 % of noncardia gastric cancers. In the present study we analyzed the data for H. pylori eradication treatments in Slovenia. Patients and methods Slovenia is a part of the European Registry on Helicobacter pylori Management from the beginning. In seven medical institutions data for H. pylori eradication treatments was collected for 1774 patients from April 16th 2013 to May 15th 2016. For further modified intention to treat (mITT) analysis 1519 patients were eligible and for per protocol (PP) analysis 1346 patients. Results Patients’ dropout was 11.4%. Eradication rate for 7 day triple therapy with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) + Clarithromycin (C) + Amoxicillin (A) was 88.7% PP and 72.0% mITT; for PPI + C + Metronidazole (M) 85.2% PP and 84.4% mITT. Second line 14 day therapy PPI + A + Levofloxacin had 92.3% eradication rate PP and 87.1% mITT. Ten to fourteen day Bismuth quadruple therapy was the therapy in difficult to treat patients. At the end all patients that adhered to prescribed regimens were cured of their H. pylori infection. Conclusions High dropout rate deserves further analysis. Slovenia is still a country with < 15% H. pylori resistance to clarithromycin, triple therapy with PPI plus two antibiotics reaches PP eradication rate > 85%, but mITT eradication rates are suboptimal.

Aim. To evaluate an association of genetic polymorphisms CYP2C19, MDR1, and IL-1β on the eradication rate by 10-day modified therapy in patients with H. pylori - associated diseases. Materials and methods. In this study was conducted a prospective, randomized trial, included 89 patients with H. pylori - associated diseases. They were divided into 2 groups depending on therapy: clarithromycin 500 mg, b.i.d., amoxicillin 1000 mg, b.i.d., bismuth subcitrate 240 mg, b.i.d. rabeprazole 20 mg or 40 mg, b.i.d. for 10 days. All subjects underwent pharmacogenetic testing of CYP2C19, MDR1, and IL-1β. Results and discussion. Per - protocol (PP) eradication rates in group with rabeprazole 40 mg were 97.6% (41/42; 95% CI 87.7-99.6), in group with rabeprazole 20 mg were 82.1% (32/39; 95% CI 67.3-91.0). Intention - to - treat analysis in group with rabeprazole 40 mg eradication rates were 89.1% (41/46; 95% CI 77.0-95.3), in group with standard dose rabeprazole - 74.4% (32/43; 95% CI 59.8-85.1). No significant differences in eradication rates between the groups of ultrarapid, rapid, normal and intermediate CYP2C19 metabolizers (PP: 93.5%/90.3%/84.6% respectively; χ2=0.87, p=0.65). Eradication rates in group with IL-1β CC genotype there was no difference among the IL-1β CT and TT genotype groups (PP: 92.9%/85.7%/94.7% respectively; χ2=1.34; p=0.51). The cure rate among MDR1 TT genotype was significantly lower than among subjects in the MDR1 CC/CT genotype groups (PP: 76.2% vs 96.3%: χ2=5.04; p=0.025; OR=8.13). Conclusion. Ten - day modified triple therapy with high dose rabeprazole significantly high eradication rates in patients with H. pylori - associated diseases. Independent factor for treatment failure is MDR1 CC/CT genotype status.

Objectives: The aim of study is to evaluate the efficacy, tolerability and adverse effects of a standard triple therapy including Rabeprazole, Clarithromycin and Amoxicilline at Sai gon Hoan My hospital in order to consider treatment H.pylori for patients who have not yet eradicated before or need to be undertaked by alternative regimens. Methods: By descriptive cross-sectional study, the authors have examined 116 patients sufferring from peptic ulcer received 10-day therapy including Rabe (20mg b.d) plus Clari(500mg b.d) plus Amoxi(1g b.d). Eradication is confirmed with endoscopy after 4 weeks from completing of treatment. Results and Discussion: 100% of patients were initially included and noboby was dropped out of the follow-up satges. The mean age was 49 in which 62% was male, 73(62,9%) presented duodenal ulcer, 28(24,1%) gastric ulcer and 15(13%) simultaneous gastric and duodenal ulcers. All patients took medications correctly. Per-protocol and intention to treat eradication rates were both 75%(95% CI=73,4-78,3). Additionally, 62(53,4%) patients had at least one risky factor for peptic ulcer disease, smoking being the most common one 44(37,9%).The adverse effects were reported overall in 67% of the patients, mainly including changed taste, very bitter, tired 49%, trouble sleeping 12% and diarrhea 5%. Conclusion: this ten-day standard triple therapy used in this study is ineffective with high adverse effects.The first line eradication with new regimens should be alternative.

Aim. To compare 10-day standard triple therapy versus sequential therapy as first-line treatment in patients infected withH. pylori.Methods. One hundredH. pyloripositive patients (diagnosed by rapid urease test and histology), with average age of 47.2, M/F = 28/72, were randomized to receive either standard triple treatment (TT) as follows: lansoprazole 30 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg, and amoxicillin 1 g, b.i.d. for ten days, or sequential treatment (ST) as follows: lansoprazole 30 mg, amoxicillin and placebo 1.0 g b.i.d for the first five days, followed by lansoprazole 30 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg, and tinidazole 500 mg b.i.d, for the remaining five days. Eradication rates were determined 60 days after treatment by urease, histology, or13C-urea breath test.Results. In intention to treat (ITT) analysis, the rate ofH. pylorieradication in the TT and ST groups was the same for both regimens as follows: 86% (43/50), 95% CI 93,3 to 73.4%. In Per protocol (PP) analysis, the rate ofH. pylorieradication in the TT and ST groups was 87.8% (43/49), 95% CI 94,5 to 75.3% and 89.6% (43/48), 95% CI 95,8 to 77.3%, respectively.Conclusions. In Brazil, standard triple therapy is as equally effective as sequential therapy in eradicatingHelicobacter pyloripatients. This study was registered under Clinical Trials with numberISRCTN62400496.

OBJECTIVE: To assessHelicobacter pylorieradication after one week dual ranitidine bismuth citrate-clarithromycin (RBC-C) or triple omeprazole, clarithromycin and amoxicillin (OCA) therapy.METHODS: In this multicentre Canadian trial,H pylori-positive patients with functional dyspepsia or inactive peptic ulcer disease were randomized to open-label treatment with RBC-C (ranitidine bismuth citrate 400 mg plus clarithromycin 500 mg) or OCA (omezaprole 20 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg and amoxicillin 1000 mg), given twice a day for seven days. Treatment allocation was randomly assigned.H pyloriinfection was confirmed by positive13C-urea breath test (13C-UBT).H pyloristatus was reassessed by UBT at least four and 12 weeks after treatment (negative: δ13CO2below 3.5 per mil). Intention-to-treat (ITT) eradication rates were determined for all patients with confirmedH pyloriinfection. Per protocol (PP) rate was determined for all patients treated with at least two evaluable follow-up visits.RESULTS: Three hundred five patients were included in the ITT and 222 in the PP analysis. The ITT eradication rates were 66% for RBC-C and 78% for OCA. The PP success rates were 84% for RBC-C and 96% for OCA. The difference for both ITT 12% (95% CI 2 to 22) and PP 12% (95% CI 4 to 19) were statistically significant, P=0.030 and P=0.007, respectively. Treatment was generally well tolerated.CONCLUSION: The eradication rate for the seven-day dual RBC-C regimen was lower than that for OCA.
