Bag Mode BreathID Hp Validation Versus Endoscopy in Detection of Helicobacter Pylori

Clinical Validation Study to Evaluate Presence of H. Pylori With 13C-Urea Breath Test Using the Dual Mode BreathID® Hp System Compared to Congruent Biopsy Results

A new method of breath collection for testing for Helicobacter Pylori infection has been developed by Exalenz. In this study, it will be compared to the gold standard- endoscopy results to prove its accuracy.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Helicobacter Pylori Infection
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: Breath Test Collection bags

Detailed Description

This study will validate a breath collection method by comparing a newly developed breath test kit, IDkit:Hp™ TWO using breath collection bags, to congruent biopsy results (a composite reference standard by analyzing specimens with microbial culture, histological examination and rapid urease test- RUT) in detecting H.Pylori

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Initial Diagnosis Cohort; Subjects with clinical indication of H.pylori infection will undergo breath test compared to routine clinical standard of care- endoscopy	Other: Breath Test Collection bags; Breath Collection bags will be used to collect breath of subjects before and after ingestion of 13-C breath test substrate; Other Names: IDKit Two

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
overall percent agreement	The primary study endpoint is the performance measure (overall percent agreement) in initial diagnosis (presence/ absence of H.pylori) between biopsy results and bag mode breath test.	21 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
overall percent agreement	The performance measure (overall percent agreement) in post-therapy diagnosis (presence/ absence of H.pylori) between the Dual Mode BreathID® Hp System when using only one pair of IDkit:Hp™ TWO breath collection bags measured within 9 days and congruent biopsy results	21 days
