Up to now, there is few randomized, large scale study prospectively and simultaneously comparing the efficacy, adverse effects and patient adherence of high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) as 1st-line regimens for H. pylori eradication.
The aims of this study are:
Full description
Participants, aged ≥ 20, having H. pylori-positive chronic gastritis with/without peptic ulcers (duodenal or gastric ulcers) will be recruited. All undergo endoscopy with biopsy for rapid urease teat, histology, and bacterial culture before treatment. Four to eight weeks after termination of treatment, H. pylori infection status will be examined by the 13C-urea breath test. The CYP2C19 genotype of each participant will be analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymerase (PCR-RFLP) method. A computed generated random numbers sequence will be blocked into two subgroups, say A, and B.
If the participants did not receive anti-H. pylori therapy previously, they will be invited to enter this study for evaluated the efficacy of these 1st-line regimens. Participant who meet the inclusion criteria and do not have any one of the exclusion criteria will be randomized to receive one of the following regimens:
group A- HDDT (rabeprazole 20 mg qid + amoxicillin 750 mg qid for 14 days);
group B- BQT ( rabeprazole 20 mg qid + tripotassium dicitrate bismuthate 300 mg qid + metronidazole 250 mg qid + tetracycline 500 mg qid for 10 days);
All participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire and to record symptoms and drug consumption daily during the treatment period. Post-treatment, the participants will be followed up at the Outpatients Clinic to investigate patient adherence and adverse effect of treatment.
