ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2025

42 participants

Abstract

* This clinical trial is conducted as a double-blind, randomized, and active drug control clinical trial. If the screening results determine that the selection/exclusion criteria are met, the clinical trial drugs are randomly assigned at a 1:1 ratio of the Pexuprazan 40 mg and the Lansoprazole 15 mg dose group and taken for 4 weeks.

* Gastritis symptoms are evaluated four weeks after baseline (Visit1) and clinical drug administration (Visit2), and if it is determined that gastritis is necessary according to the medical team's judgment due to gastrointestinal symptoms during the study participation period, endoscopy is performed to check whether gastritis occurs.

Conditions: Patients on Treatment With Systemic Steroids.

Primary outcome: Changes in baseline gastritis symptoms based on gastritis symptom index at 4 weeks.

Enrollment: 42 participants.
