Lansoprazole: an analysis of the clinical trials in the 3 years of 1997-1999
Abstract
Aim of this overview was to evaluate the main clinical trials with lansoprazole published from 1997 to 1999 in English-language journals, regarding gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer, NSAID-induced ulcer, and ZES. Results of clinical trials for therapy and prevention of lesions/symptoms have been evaluated separately. In direct comparisons, lansoprazole alone (not combined with antibiotics) proves to be equieffective to other PPI and more effective than H2-RA in both therapy and prevention of GERD, peptic ulcer (a part from anti-Hp regimens) and NSAID-induced ulcer. Among Hp-eradicating regimens in patients with peptic ulcer or functional dyspepsia, lansoprazole-based triple therapy is equal in efficacy to other PPI-based or RBC-based triple therapies and, in any case, significantly better than dual therapies. The in vitro anti-Hp activity of lansoprazole, more marked than with other PPI, does not seem to effort clinical advantages. Safety of lansoprazole is largely satisfactory and no different from other PPI and H2-RA.
