Optimal Recheck Time for Helicobacter Pylori Eradication: A Prospective Randomized Trial

May 22, 2023 updated by: Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University

Optimal Recheck Time for Helicobacter Pylori Eradication: A Prospective, Single-center, Open-label, Randomized Controlled Trial

Although Urea breath test has been commonly used to recheck the efficiency of Helicobacter pylori eradication, there has been no randomized trials comparing the accuracy of Urea breath test results at different times after eradication. The investigators aim to assess the accuracy and influence factors of post-therapy test at different times and follow up the cut off samples to optimize the best time to recheck.

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

The investigators plan to conduct a single-center, open-label, randomized controlled study in Zhejiang, China. Treatment-naive H. pylori-positive participants (n = 900) were randomly assigned to three groups in a 1:1:1 ratio with the same eradication regimen: amoxicillin 1000 mg, clarithromycin 500mg, rabeprazole 10mg, and colloidal bismuth 200 mg each given twice a day for 14 days. Urea breath tests were administered at different times after the treatment: 4 to 6 weeks, 6 to 8 weeks, and 8 to 10 weeks, respectively, for different groups.

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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • no history of helicobacter pylori treatment
  • the diagnosis of H. pylori infection was confirmed by one or more of the following methodologies before treatment: gastric biopsy using histochemical staining, tissue culture, the 14C-urea breath test (UBT), and/or the 13C-UBT.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • used antibiotics or bismuth within four weeks before inclusion or acid inhibitor use, including H2 receptor antagonist (H2RA), PPI or P-CAB use, within two weeks prior to inclusion.

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.
Placebo Comparator: Recheck time is at 4 to 6 weeks after the eradication therapy
All cases are administered the same eradication regimen: amoxicillin 1000 mg, clarithromycin 500mg, rabeprazole 10mg, and colloidal bismuth 200 mg each given twice a day for 14 days. Urea breath tests were administered at 4 to 6 weeks( as guildeline suggested) after the treatment.
Diagnostic test: HY-IREXB plus carbon 13 breath detector do the breath urea test after eradication at different times
Carbon 13 breath tests are generally performed 4-6 weeks after eradication therapy. The control group will perform breath urea test at 4-6 weeks after treatment. The experimental groups will perform the same test at different times after the same treatment, 6-8weeks and 8-10 weeks, respectively.

All cases are administered the same eradication regimen: amoxicillin 1000 mg, clarithromycin 500mg, rabeprazole 10mg, and colloidal bismuth 200 mg each given twice a day for 14 days. Urea breath tests were administered at 6 to8 weeks after the treatment.

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
the eradication rate in each group (ITT analysis)
Time Frame: up to 4 months after eradication therapy
According to the breath urea test, calculation the eradication rate in the three groups. ITT analysis, the number of negative breath test cases after treatment divided by the number of cases enrolled in eradication therapy.
up to 4 months after eradication therapy
the eradication rate in each group (PP analysis)
Time Frame: up to 4 months after eradication therapy
According to the breath urea test, calculation the eradication rate in the three groups. PP analysis, the number of negative breath test cases after treatment divided by the number of cases finished the eradication therapy
up to 4 months after eradication therapy

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
follow up of cut off cases
Time Frame: up to 4 months after eradication therapy.
If the result of breath urea test is betwwen 2 to 6, it will be defined as cut off value. These cases will be collected and take further tests to make sure the real situation of helicobacter pylori infection.
up to 4 months after eradication therapy.
