Helicobacter Rescue Therapy With High-dose Esomeprazole and Amoxicillin Dual Therapy Versus Bismuth-containing Quadruple Therapy

This study aims at evaluating efficacy and safety of high-dose esomeprazole and amoxicillin dual therapy(esomeprazole and amoxicillin) versus bismuth-containing quadruple Therapy(bismuth,esomeprazole,tetracycline and furazolidone) in H. pylori rescue therapy. It is hypothesized that high-dose esomeprazole and amoxicillin dual therapy is non-inferior to bismuth-containing quadruple Therapy. Patients with confirmed failure of H. pylori eradication will be randomized to one of the treatments described above. At week 6 follow-up visits, a urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test will be performed to confirm eradication.

Key information

About this study

The study will include three phases: screening, treatment and follow-up.

Screening: this phase will last a maximum of 14 days and subjects eligibility will be evaluated after signing informed consent. One of urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test will be performed in addition to the baseline routine evaluations.

Treatment: Subjects are randomly assigned to treatment and will be treated for 14 days. A randomization visit will take place on Day 0 and an end-of-treatment visit will take place between day 14 and 16.

Follow-up: includes one visits. Approximately 28 days after the end of treatment. Eradication of H. Pylori will be confirmed by one of urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test.

Other names: Nexium

Amoxicillin

Drug

High-dose esomeprazole and amoxicillin dual therapy: given for 14 days at a dose of amoxicillin 500 mg 2 capsules TID plus esomeprazole 40mg 1 tablet TID

Other names: Amoxy

Bismuth

Drug

Bismuth-containing quadruple therapy: given for 14 days at a dose of bismuth 110 mg 2 capsules BID plus esomeprazole 40 mg 1 tablets BID,tetracycline 250mg 2 capsules TID and furazolidone 100mg 1 tablets BID

Bismuth-containing quadruple therapy:given for 14 days at a dose of furazolidone 100mg 1 tablets BID plus tetracycline 250mg 2 capsules TID,esomeprazole 40 mg 1 tablets BID and bismuth 110 mg 2 capsules BID

Primary outcomes

  1. Helicobacter pylori eradication

    Time frame: 28 days after treatment

    The primary end point of this study is H.pylori eradication,established by negative [13C] urea breath test (DOB value below 3.9)28 days after the end of eradication

Secondary outcomes

  1. symptoms effective rates

    Time frame: 14 days of treatment, and 28 days after treatment

    symptoms improvement rates Evaluation improvement rate of symptoms 2 weeks of treatment and 4 weeks after the end of treatment. Symptom improvement rate =#total score before treatment - total score after treatment#/total score before treatment x100%. Total score = frequency + severity.Frequency score is calculated by all the frequency of heartburn, reflux, abdominal pain, and flatulence, etc. Severity is accumulated by the degree of symptoms described above, which is divided to 4 degree as 0 presenting none, and 3 presenting most severe

  2. adverse events

    Time frame: 14 days of treatment, and 28 days after treatment

    Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability.The common side effects of the study include headache,dizziness,skin rash,other gastrointestinal disorders,pyrexia,cough and back pain.
