About this study

Official title: A Prospective Cohort Study to Study the Natural History and Ulcer Recurrence Without Acid Suppression of Non-NSAID, Non-HP Bleeding Peptic Ulcer Patients

The aim of this study is to study the natural history of the ulcer healing while on proton pump inhibitors (PPI) and the ulcer recurrence without acid suppression therapy of Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAID), non-Helicobacter pylori (HP) bleeding ulcer patients.

Read the detailed description

Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAID), Non-Helicobacter pylori (HP) bleeding peptic ulcers are relatively common in the West (11%-44%). It is uncommon in Hong Kong (4%). Significant number of these patients with non-NSAID, non-Hp bleeding ulcers had co-morbid illness and many had life-threatening conditions. Our recent study showed that there is an increasing incidence of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), non-Helicobacter pylori (Hp) bleeding peptic ulcers. There is no datum on the natural course of these patients and this is our aim to have this observational study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Recurrent ulcer bleeding

    Hematemesis or melena documented by the admitting physician, or a decrease in the hemoglobin level of at least 2 g/dL, with ulcers or bleeding erosions confirmed on endoscopy.

    Measured: During the observation period

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. All-cause mortality

    The secondary endpoint is recurrent lower gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, which was defined as recurrent overt bleeding (melena or hematochezia without an upper GI source) or a drop in hemoglobin >2 g/dL, without an upper GI source or other non-GI causes of anemia. We excluded hemorrhoidal bleeding and colorectal cancer as lower GI outcomes.

    Measured: During the observation period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peptic Ulcer, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
