Efficacy of Low-dose Vonoprazan for Helicobacter Pylori Eradication

September 7, 2023 updated by: Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University

Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of Bismuth-containing Quadruple Therapies Based on Low-dose Vonoprazan in the Initial Treatment of Helicobacter Pylori Infection: a Retrospective Study

The primary objective of this retrospective study was to assess the efficacy and safety of a bismuth quadruple regimen of a low-dose potassium-competitive acid blocker versus a standard-dose potassium-competitive acid blocker and a standard-dose proton pump inhibitor combined with amoxicillin and clarithromycin as the initial treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection.

Detailed Description

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is closely associated with a variety of diseases including chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer. Adequate acid suppression is essential for H. pylori eradication therapy. Potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) vonoprazan (VPZ) has faster, stronger, and longer-lasting acid inhibition and plays an important role in H. pylori treatment. 2022 Chinese national clinical practice guideline on Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment recommended for the first time a quadruple regimen of bismuth containing P-CAB for H. pylori eradication, in which P-CAB was administered as VPZ 20 mg twice daily. In this retrospective study, we compared the efficacy and safety of a quadruple regimen based on low-dose P-CAB (VPZ 20 mg once daily) versus a quadruple regimen based on standard-dose P-CAB (VPZ 20 mg twice daily) or standard-dose proton pump inhibitor (rabeprazole 10 mg twice daily) containing amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and bismuth as initial treatment for H. pylori infection. Our study will provide clinical evidence for the necessary dosage of VPZ in bismuth quadruple regimens, which will help to further optimize the treatment regimen for H. pylori infection.

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

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study population consisted of patients undergoing initial treatment for H. pylori infection who attended the outpatient clinic of the Department of Gastroenterology at the Second Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021. Only patients using a quadruple regimen based on rabeprazole or vonoprazan combined with amoxicillin and clarithromycin with bismuth were included in the study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Diagnosis of H. pylori infection confirmed by urea breath test, monoclonal fecal antigen test, endoscopic biopsy histopathology, or bacterial culture;
  2. No previous eradication therapy for H. pylori;
  3. Age and gender are not restricted.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Use of acid-suppressing drugs within 2 weeks prior to treatment, or use of bismuth or antibiotics (including herbal medicines with antimicrobial properties) within 4 weeks prior to treatment;
  2. Known hypersensitivity to the drugs used in this study;
  3. History of esophageal or gastric surgery;
  4. Pregnant or lactating women;
  5. Serious systemic diseases, diseases of the heart, lungs, brain and other vital organs, hepatic or renal insufficiency or malignant tumors (except gastric cancer);
  6. Patients unable to express their main complaints.

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
Helicobacter H. pylori eradication rate
Time Frame: after eradication therapy at least 4 weeks
number of patients successfully eradicated / the total number participants
after eradication therapy at least 4 weeks

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
safety of regimens
Time Frame: Within 4 weeks from the beginning to the end of therapy
comparison of the incidence of adverse events in each group
Within 4 weeks from the beginning to the end of therapy
compliance
Time Frame: 4 weeks after therapy completion
percentage of correctly administered drugs
