A Multi-center Study for Eradication of Refractory Helicobacter Pylori

July 10, 2016 updated by: Liping Ye, Taizhou Hospital

Construction and Application of the Treatment of Refractory Helicobacter Pylori Infection Based on the High-throughput Sequencing Technologies

Recently studies showed that the eradication rate of H. pylori fail to exceed 80% and even falls into an unacceptable range. A major cause of treatment failure is associated with antibiotic resistance and poor patient compliance. However, the refractory infection of H. pylori is still existing, although patients have good compliance and receive standardized treatment. This phenomenon is likely attributed to the different ratio of sensitive and resistance in H. pylori, the difference of Amoxicillin resistance between in vivo and in vitro, the difference between phenotype and genotype or the influence of micro-environment in the stomach. In order to solve the refractory infection of H. pylori, investigators performed a muti-center study together with other 14 institutions. In this study, investigators will select the patients with refractory infection of H. pylori after two standardized treatment from patients with first eradication therapy of H. pylori infection. Then, investigators will perform a high-throughput sequencing for patients in groups. Finally, investigators will compare the differences between the patients with first successful eradication and patients with refractory infection of H. pylori, such as drug resistance gene mutation, phenotype and genotype, the mechanisms of Amoxicillin resistance and micro-environment in stomach.

Experimental: H pylori culture negative group
The patients who have the negative result of H pylori culture were classified into H pylori culture negative group.
Device: The result of H pylori culture based on gram staining and enzyme activity testing
This intervention aimed at patients with the positive result of 13C-urea breath test. Patients with negative result of H pylori culture was H pylori culture negative group. Patients with positive result of H pylori culture were belonged into the first successful eradication group and the refractory infection of H. pylori group.
Experimental: The first successful eradication group
The patients with first eradication therapy of H. pylori infection have the first successful treatment based on the standardized treatment including antibiotics selection from antibiotic susceptibility testing and proton pump inhibitors （PPIs) dose selection from CYP2C19 gene sequencing.
