About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study of Lansoprazole and Mosapride for Functional Dyspepsia: Focus on Difference Between Epigastric Pain Syndrome and Postprandial Distress Syndrome

Functional dyspepsia is a common symptom complex with significant impact on quality of life. There is no standard treatment for functional dyspepsia but therapeutic efficacy of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and prokinetic agent have been proved in subsets of patients. This study has two aims:

  • first is to compare the therapeutic efficacy of lansoprazole (a PPI) and mosapride (a prokinetic agent) for functional dyspepsia
  • second is to investigate whether different subgroups of functional dyspepsia (e.g., epigastric pain syndrome and postprandial distress syndrome) respond differently to PPI and prokinetic agent.
Read the detailed description

Eligible outpatients with presentation of dyspepsia are enrolled if they fulfilled the criteria of ROME III criteria. A trained assistant helps the eligible patients to complete the ROME III standard questionaire, brief symptom rating scale (BSRS), and Maudsley Personality Inventory (MPI). The enrolled patients are then randomized into either lansoprazole or mosapride group for 14-day treatment. Before starting medication, right after completing the medication, and 1 month after the medication, the enrolled patients complete standardized severity questionnaire (Hong-Kong Index) to evaluate severity of dyspeptic symptoms. Symptom improvement is then determined.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing lansoprazole and mosapride in people with Functional Dyspepsia and Epigastric Pain Syndrome, run by Lotung Poh-Ai Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Oct 2009. 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 Taiwan. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Improvement of dyspeptic symptoms as evaluated by validated questionnaire (time frame: After 2-week treatment of lansoprazole or mosapride). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00663897, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Oct 2009.
