Trial summary

The efficacy of the current standard triple therapy is at an unacceptably low level. Resistance to antibiotics is suspected to be the major cause of the low efficacy of standard triple therapy. Point mutations in the 23S rRNA gene are known to be the primary mechanism of clarithromycin resistance against H pylori. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Optimal Tailored Treatment for H. Pylori Infection According to the Presence of DPO-PCR Based Clarithromycin Resistance

The efficacy of the current standard triple therapy is at an unacceptably low level. Resistance to antibiotics is suspected to be the major cause of the low efficacy of standard triple therapy. Point mutations in the 23S rRNA gene are known to be the primary mechanism of clarithromycin resistance against H pylori. Recently, a point mutation detection kit using a dual-priming oligonucleotide (DPO)-based multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was introduced and made commercially available. The primary goal of our study was to compare the eradication rates of empirical therapy and tailored therapy. Specifically we examined the eradication rates of 7-d, 14-d empirical therapy with 7-d, 14-d tailored therapy. Our secondary goal was to examine the adverse events of each treatment, cost effectiveness of each treatment methods, and accuracy of DPO-PCR for detecting H. pylori resistance.

Read the detailed description

Patients are randomly assigned to the empirical therapy group and tailored therapy group.

The empirical therapy group recieves triple therapy of 7 or 14 days. The tailored therapy group receives treatment based on their DPO-PCR results.

Patients who are sensitive to clarithromycin based on DPO-PCR receives triple therapy for 7 or 14 days. Patients who are resistant to clarithromycin based on DPO-PCR recieves bismuth quadruple therapy for 7 or 14 days.

Being tested
Dual-priming oligonucleotide-based multiplex polymerase chain reaction (DPO-PCR)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dual-priming oligonucleotide-based multiplex polymerase chain reaction (DPO-PCR) in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection and Antibiotic Resistant Infection, run by Incheon St.Mary's 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 1 inclusion and 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2024. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Eradication success (time frame: 8-12 weeks after eradication). 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 16 May 2024.
