Detailed Description
This is a, randomized, double blind, active comparator-controlled study of RHB-105 in adult subjects complaining of epigastric discomfort that have been screened and found to be positive for H. pylori infection via 13C UBT and gastric biopsy.
The biopsy samples will also be used to conduct H. pylori antibiotic susceptibility/resistance assessment.
The study will be conducted at up to 65 sites in the USA. Eligible subjects will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 between the RHB-105 arm (n=222) and the active comparator arm (n=222). Subjects will receive RHB-105 or active comparator for 14 consecutive days. Eradication of H. pylori infection will be determined at Visit 5 based on 13C UBT testing conducted between 43 and 71 days after initiation of study drug therapy.
All subjects who meet inclusion and exclusion criteria and have positive13C UBT will undergo upper endoscopy with sampling for culture and sensitivity testing (to rifabutin, amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and metronidazole) prior to randomization. After test of cure at Visit 5, all H. pylori eradication failures will receive susceptibility directed Standard of Care therapy based on initial culture results for subjects, and undergo repeat upper endoscopy for post treatment antibiotic susceptibility/resistance assessment.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants With Eradication of H. Pylori
Time Frame: 43-71 days after initiation of treatment
|
Eradication of H. pylori confirmed via 13C Urea Breath Test (UBT) testing.
Subjects with negative test results (eradication of H. pylori) were considered treatment successes.
Subjects who tested positive for H. pylori infection (no eradication) were considered treatment failures.
|
43-71 days after initiation of treatment
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants With H. Pylori Cultures That Presented Antibiotic Resistance and Susceptibility
Time Frame: 43-71 days after initiation of treatment
|
The primary endpoint was summarized within subgroups formed by the presence of H. pylori susceptibility and resistance to amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole, and rifabutin from H. pylori cultures from samples obtained prior to initiating study treatment (i.e. baseline). A participant is considered a responder when H. pylori is eradicated after treatment as confirmed via 13C Urea Breath Test (UBT). A participant is considered a non-responder when H. pylori is not eradicated after treatment. |
43-71 days after initiation of treatment
|
Number of Participants With Adverse Events That Are Related to Treatment
Time Frame: After first dose of study drug until 28 days following last dose.
|
The number of participants that presented treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) during the study overall, TEAEs related to study drug and severe TEAEs.
|
After first dose of study drug until 28 days following last dose.
|
Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of Participants With Eradication of H. Pylori in the Pharmacokinetic Population (PKP)
Time Frame: 43-71 days after initiation of treatment
|
A pre-specified responder analysis of eradication of H. pylori confirmed via 13C Urea Breath Test (UBT) was performed in the PK population. The PK population was generated based on the measurement of plasma concentrations of amoxicillin, omeprazole, rifabutin, and the rifabutin metabolite 25-O-desacetyl-rifabutin (on Day 13). It included those subjects in the FAS who had demonstrable presence of any component of investigational drug at Visit 3 or had no levels detected >250 hours after the last dose. For all subjects, the reason for exclusion from the PKP was the absence of any pharmacokinetic component of study drug at Visit 3 within 250 hours of the last reported dose. Two hundred fifty hours was selected to account for approximately 10 times the terminal half-life of rifabutin. |
