Anti-Helicobacter Pylori Therapy With Dexlansoprazole MR-Based Concomitant Quadruple Therapy- A Prospective Randomized Trial
Abstract
Background:
Recommended proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-clarithromycin-amoxicillin or metronidazole treatment for 7 to14 days is the first choice treatment for H pylori infection. The eradication rate of the standard triple therapy has generally declined to unacceptable levels (i.e., 80% or less) recently because the increasing incidence of clarithromycin-resistant strains of H. pylori. Standard triple therapies should be abandoned in the areas with clarithromycin resistance ≥ 20%. The investigators have proven that 7-day Concomitant therapy can achieve a promising success rate of \>90 % in the presence of clarithromycin resistance. However, high dose PPI is needed with a dosage of twice daily but when a dual delayed release formulation PPI in capsules for oral administration (Dexlansoprazole MR), a once daily dose may be needed only. The capsules contain dexlansoprazole in a mixture of two types of enteric-coated granules with different pH-dependent dissolution profiles. It suppresses gastric acid secretion via inhibition of the proton pump in the gastric parietal cell, which blocks the final step of acid production. Thus, it improves acid suppression and offer benefits over conventional single release PPI formulations. by prolonging optimal plasma concentration and create a favorable condition H. pylori eradication
Aim:
The efficacy of Dexlansoprazole MR-based concomitant quadruple therapy
Conditions: Helicobacter Pylori Infection.
Primary outcome: The rates of H.pylori…
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 202 participants or records.
