What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Percentage of Diary-Recorded Heartburn-Free Days at Week 4

    Participants completed a daily symptom diary. A heartburn-free day was defined as participant report of 'No Heartburn' from nighttime and daytime of the diary for the same day.

    Measured: Week 4

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change From Baseline in Average Daily Severity Score of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)-Related Symptoms at Week 4

    Participants collected GERD-associated symptoms of daytime heartburn, nighttime heartburn and regurgitation in daily symptom diary. Daytime episodes were defined as those that occurred after arising in the morning until retiring in the evening, and nighttime episodes were defined as those that occurred during the night while sleeping or trying to sleep. The severity score was calculated was based on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (no symptom) to 4 (very severe symptom); higher scores indicated greater disease activity.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing rabeprazole sodium in people with Symptomatic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (sGERD), run by Eisai Inc. at 98 sites in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 2 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 98 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Feb 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Mean Percentage of Diary-Recorded Heartburn-Free Days at Week 4 (time frame: Week 4). 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 2 Feb 2016.
