About this study

Official title: Long-term Pantoprazole Trial in Patients With Symptoms of Chronic Acid Peptic Complaints

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a medical condition affecting the stomach and esophagus. GERD might occur when the lower esophageal sphincter does not close properly and stomach contents leaks back (refluxes) into the esophagus. GERD is one of the most common medical disorders, with estimates of up to 50% of adults reporting reflux symptoms. One of the main symptoms of GERD is heartburn. It occurs when the acidic content from the stomach touches the lining of the esophagus, causing a burning sensation in the chest or throat. Proton pump inhibitors such as pantoprazole can relieve symptoms of GERD and peptic ulcers in a large proportion of patients.

Additionally, long-term treatment with proton pump inhibitors may be needed for patients with chronic ulcer disease not caused by H. pylori (H. pylori is a stomach-dwelling bacteria which is often associated with ulcers in the stomach or duodenum).

The aim of the study is to evaluate the long-term effect of pantoprazole in patients with chronic gastric acid-related complaints. The study duration consists of a 5-year treatment period. Pantoprazole will be administered once daily. The study will provide further data on long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of pantoprazole.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Pantoprazole in people with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and Peptic Ulcers, run by Takeda at 1 site in Germany.

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 May 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety (adverse events, laboratory values). (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 May 2012.
