About this study

Official title: Helicobacter Pylori Eradication Rates of Bismuth-containing Quadruple Therapy vs Modified Quadruple Therapy in Korea; Open-label, Randomized Controlled Trial

South Korea has the highest incidence of gastric cancer worldwide and Helicobacter pylori infection is still prevalent. Clarithromycin-containing triple therapy is still the primary therapy approved by the Korean government. However, studies of antibiotic resistance has shown that regional resistance pattern to antibiotics such as clarithromycin, metronidazole, or quinolone. Recent study in Korea has shown that modified-quadruple therapy has comparable eradication rate to concomitant therapy. However, there has been no comparable study of modified-quadruple therapy with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy. The aim of this study is to compare the eradication rate of modified-quadruple therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy with presenting phenotypic and genotypic antibiotic resistance profile.

South Korea has the highest incidence of gastric cancer worldwide and Helicobacter pylori infection is still prevalent. Clarithromycin-containing triple therapy is still the primary therapy approved by the Korean government. However, studies of antibiotic resistance has shown that regional resistance pattern to antibiotics such as clarithromycin, metronidazole, or quinolone. Recent study in Korea has shown that modified-quadruple therapy has comparable eradication rate to concomitant therapy. However, this study did not explore the antibiotic resistance profile of Helicobacter pylori. And, there has been no comparable study of modified-quadruple therapy with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy. The aim of this study is to compare the eradication rate of modified-quadruple therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy with presenting phenotypic and genotypic antibiotic resistance profile.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PAMB treatment (modified quadruple therapy)Drug

    Also called PBMT treatment (bismuth-containing quadruple therapy)

    Randomly assign either as PAMB or PBMT group treatment

  • PBMT treatment (bismuth-containing quadruple therapy)Drug

    Also called PAMB treatment (modified quadruple therapy)

    Randomly assign either as PAMB or PBMT group treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of eradication success

    Eradication success means negative urea breath test done at least after 4 weeks from medication administration

    Measured: up to 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Rate of adverse events related to eradication medication

    Adverse events related to eradication medication

    Measured: up to 4 weeks

  2. Rate of compliance of eradication medication administration

    Compliance (percentage of amount) of eradication medication administration

    Measured: up to 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing PAMB treatment (modified quadruple therapy) and PBMT treatment (bismuth-containing quadruple therapy) in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection, run by Chuncheon Sacred Heart Hospital 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 2 inclusion and 9 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 21 May 2020. 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.

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?

Rate of eradication success (time frame: up to 4 weeks). 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 21 May 2020.
