Efficacy and Safety of 14-day Concomitant Therapy for Helicobacter Pylori: A Pilot Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of a 14-day concomitant therapy for the third-line treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection, and whether it is safe while maintaining an ideal eradication rates.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Helicobacter pylori infects half of the world's population. H.pylori eradication is an effective approach to reduce the risk of developing gastric cancer. However, eradication rates of first-line therapy decreased over years due to the rapidly increasing antibiotic resistance of H. pylori worldwide. An ideal rescue therapeutic regimen to cure refractory H.pylori infection is currently warranted. Few published paper evaluated the efficacy of 14-day furazolidone containing concomitant therapy in the third line treatment. This study aims to propose a new concomitant therapy for the patients with two or more treatment failure, and then evaluates whether adverse effects are tolerable. .

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients aged 18-70 with persistent H. pylori infection.
  • Patients failed at least three different standard eradication therapies before. Previous standard eradication therapy was defined as a 10-day or 14-day quadruple regimen designed according to Maastricht V report.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients unable or unwilling to receive gastroscopy.
  • Patients treated with H2-receptor antagonist, PPI, bismuth and antibiotics in the previous 4 weeks.
  • Patients with gastorectomy, acute GI bleeding and advanced gastric cancer.
  • History of allergy to any of the drugs used in the study.
  • Severe concomitant cardiovascular, respiratory, or endocrine diseases, clinically significant renal or hepatic disease, hematologic disorders and any other clinically significant medical condition that could increase risk.
  • Currently pregnant or lactating.
  • Severe neurologic or psychiatric disorders.
  • Alcohol abuse or drug addiction.
  • Patients with compliance lower than 90% in any previous treatment are not included.
  • Inability to provide informed consent and other situations that could interfere with the examination or therapeutic protocol.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: 14d concomitant therapy
Patients will receive a 14-day concomitant therapy containing esomeprazole, amoxicillin, tetracycline and furazolidone.
Drug: esomeprazole, amoxicillin, furazolidone，tetracycline
Patients will go through a gastroscopy and antimicrobial susceptibility test. Liver and kidney function will be monitored by blood test before and after the treatment. Then, patients will receive a 14-day concomitant therapy containing esomeprazole 40mg bid, amoxicillin 1000mg bid , furazolidone 100mg bid and tetracycline 500mg qid.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Eradication rates
Time Frame: 6 months
Both intention to treat(ITT) and per-protocol(PP) analyses will be used for the assessment of the eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori infection. The ITT analysis includes all the patients who take at least one dose of the study medications. The PP analysis is limited to patients who take over 90% of the study medications and complete follow-up.
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The rate of adverse events happening
Time Frame: 6 months
Common adverse events will be measured using a 8-point Likert scale, and patients rate their symptoms from 0 (none) to 8 (severe) during the treatment process.
6 months
The rate of good compliance
Time Frame: 6 months
Patients taken over 90% of drugs are considered to have a good compliance.
6 months
Changes of dyspepsia symptoms after Helicobacter pylori eradication
Time Frame: 6 months
A list of dyspepsia symptoms will be recorded. Difference of dyspepsia symptoms before and after the therapy will be compared.
