About this study

Official title: Head-to-head Comparison of Tegoprazan 50 mg BID Plus Amoxicillin 1 g TID Versus Vonoprazan 20 mg BID Plus Amoxicillin 1 g TID for Helicobacter Pylori Eradication: A Randomized, Open-label, Parallel-group Study

This study is a randomized, open-label, parallel-group clinical trial designed to compare two 14-day dual therapies for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either tegoprazan 50 mg twice daily plus amoxicillin 1 g three times daily, or vonoprazan 20 mg twice daily plus amoxicillin 1 g three times daily.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the tegoprazan-based regimen is non-inferior to the vonoprazan-based regimen in terms of H. pylori eradication rates. Eradication will be assessed 4 to 8 weeks after completing therapy using a ^13C-urea breath test. Secondary objectives include assessing treatment-related adverse events, tolerability, and medication adherence.

This study involves adult participants with confirmed H. pylori infection. All study medications are orally administered, and both regimens use drugs with well-established safety profiles. The study is investigator-initiated and conducted at Hangzhou First People's Hospital.

Read the detailed description

This investigator-initiated, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study is designed to compare two potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB)-based dual therapies for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The study evaluates a 14-day regimen of tegoprazan 50 mg twice daily combined with amoxicillin 1 g three times daily versus a 14-day regimen of vonoprazan 20 mg twice daily combined with amoxicillin 1 g three times daily.

  1. pylori infection is a major cause of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric cancer. Rising antimicrobial resistance and variable acid suppression with conventional proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have highlighted the need for alternative treatment strategies. P-CABs, including tegoprazan and vonoprazan, provide rapid, potent, and sustained acid suppression and may enhance the efficacy of high-dose amoxicillin dual therapy. Despite their increasing clinical use, head-to-head comparative evidence between different P-CAB-based dual therapies is limited.

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether the tegoprazan-based dual regimen is non-inferior to the vonoprazan-based dual regimen in terms of H. pylori eradication rate, assessed by a ^13C-urea breath test performed 4 to 8 weeks after treatment completion. Secondary assessments include treatment-emergent adverse events, serious adverse events, gastrointestinal symptom changes, and medication adherence.

Eligible participants are adults with confirmed H. pylori infection who have not received recent eradication therapy or antibiotics with anti-H. pylori activity. The study drugs have established safety profiles and are administered orally. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio and followed until completion of eradication testing and safety assessments. Data will be analyzed using both intention-to-treat and per-protocol populations.

This study is conducted at Hangzhou First People's Hospital and is intended to provide direct comparative data to guide the selection of P-CAB-based dual therapy regimens in clinical practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Helicobacter pylori Eradication Rate (ITT and PP)

    1. pylori eradication will be defined as a negative ^13C-urea breath test performed at the follow-up visit. Eradication rates will be assessed in both the intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) populations. A participant will be considered eradicated only if the test result is negative without the use of prohibited medications.

    Measured: 4 to 8 weeks after completion of the 14-day treatment regimen

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    Number and proportion of participants experiencing at least one treatment-emergent adverse event, classified by severity and relationship to study medication.

    Measured: From first dose to 2 weeks after completion of treatment (approximately 4 weeks total)

  2. Incidence of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Number and proportion of participants experiencing at least one serious adverse event, as defined by international regulatory criteria.

    Measured: From first dose to end of study follow-up (up to 10 weeks)

  3. Rate of Treatment Discontinuation Due to Adverse Events

    Proportion of participants who permanently discontinue the study medication because of adverse events.

    Measured: During the 14-day treatment period

  4. Change in Gastrointestinal Symptom Scores

    Change from baseline in gastrointestinal symptom scores (e.g., nausea, bloating, abdominal pain), measured using a standardized symptom questionnaire.

    Measured: Baseline to end of 14-day treatment

  5. Medication Adherence Rate

    Percentage of prescribed doses taken by participants, assessed using pill counts and/or patient diaries.

    Measured: During the 14-day treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Tegoprazan, Amoxicillin and Vonoprazan in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection, run by First People's Hospital of Hangzhou at 1 site in China.

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 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2025. 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 China. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Hongzhang Shen, PhD (0086-15067174028, shz@zcmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Helicobacter pylori Eradication Rate (ITT and PP) (time frame: 4 to 8 weeks after completion of the 14-day treatment regimen). 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 Nov 2025.
