About this study

The purpose of this study is to make nationwide registry for antimicrobial resistance of Helicobacter pylori using single method with agar dilution in Korea.

Read the detailed description

Backgrounds:

The success rate of Helicobacter pylori eradication in Korea is not sufficient in recent days. The main cause of eradication failure is known as antimicrobial resistance and previous studies showed that resistant rates were different according to the regions in Korea. However, until now, there are not enough studies about the nationwide results for antimicrobial resistance and previous reports used various methods for the resistant test.

Theories and Plans:

The nationwide resistant registry of Helicobacter pylori using standardized single method, agar dilution test, can be useful for the development of new eradication methods to make eradication rate higher. Moreover, the higher rate of Helicobacter pylori eradication can reduce the chance of gastric cancer and also can reduce the medical expenses.

What is being measured

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

  1. The rate of exceeding the resistance criteria in Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) antibiotic susceptibility test(Agar dilution method)

    The resistance criterion specifies that Clarithromycin is excess of 1.0 μg/mL, Amoxicillin is excess of 0.5 μg/mL, Metronidazole is excess of 8 μg/mL, Tetracycline is excess of 4 μg/mL, Levofloxacin is excess of 1 μg/mL and Ciprofloxacin is excess of 1 μg/mL.

    All of resistance criteria follow a criteria of NCCLS(National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards)

    Measured: 6 more days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The gap of the rate of the antibiotic resistance to H. pylori by regional groups

    Measured: 6 more days

  2. The success rate of H. pylori strain separation

    Analyze the case of inseparable H. pylori strain and the reason of failure for culture after H. pylori strain separation.

    Measured: 6 more days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Helicobacter Pylori Infection and Peptic Ulcer, run by Asan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Nov 2016. 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 South Korea. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hwoon-Yong Jung, M.D., Ph.D. (hyjung@amc.seoul.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The rate of exceeding the resistance criteria in Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) antibiotic susceptibility test(Agar dilution method) (time frame: 6 more days). 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 10 Nov 2016.
