s-1743 and sitafloxacin

Sitafloxacin (STFX)-containing regimens were shown to be useful options for third-line Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy. It is reported that resistance to quinolone is also increasing globally. Therefore, we conducted an analysis of the current efficacy of a 10-day -STFX-containing third-line rescue therapy and the changes of antibiotic resistance to H. pylori compared to 2 historical controls.. Patients in whom eradication treatment using both first- and second-line triple therapies failed were enrolled from 2014 to 2015. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of STFX, clarithromycin (CLR), amoxicillin (AMX), metronidazole (MTZ) and the gyrA mutation status of the H. pylori strains were determined before treatment. After that, the patients received a 10-day triple therapy containing esomeprazole (20 mg, b.i.d.), AMX (500 mg, q.i.d.) and STFX (100 mg, b.i.d.; 10-day EAS). The eradication rate and the rate of antibiotic resistance to H. pylori were compared with 2 previous reports about STFX-containing third-line rescue therapies in 2009-2011 and 2012-2013. To explore the association between the eradication rates of regimens containing STFX, AMX and proton pump inhibitors and the location of gyrA mutation or AMX resistance, a meta-analysis was attempted.. The overall eradication rates, the eradication rate for gyrA mutation negative- and positive- strains were 81.6% (31/38), 94.7% (18/19) and 68.4% (13/19) respectively. These rates were not significantly different from 2 previous reports. The resistant rates to STFX, CLR, AMX, MTZ and the rate of presence of mutation in gyrA were 50.0, 81.6, 36.8, 78.9 and 50.0%, respectively, which was also not significantly different from 2 previous reports. A meta-analysis showed that the relative risk of the eradication failure is significantly lower in gyrA mutation negative strains compared to gyrA mutation positive strains, and that the relative risk of the eradication failure is significantly lower in gyrA mutation at D91 compared to gyrA mutation at N87 (p < 0.001 and p = 0.022, respectively). Moreover, a meta-analysis showed that the relative risk of the eradication failure is significantly lower in AMX-sensitive strains compared to AMX-resistant ones.. Changes in the rate of antibiotic resistance to H. pylori were not observed from 2009 to 2015. The status of gyrA mutation is a superior marker for predicting successful eradication in STFX/AMX-containing triple regimen as a third-line rescue therapy.

This was a prospective, randomized trial of the efficacy of vonoprazan-based and proton-pump inhibitor-based 7-day triple regimens with amoxicillin and sitafloxacin as a third-line therapy for eradicating Helicobacter pylori after failure of clarithromycin-based and metronidazole-based first-line and second-line therapy.. We enrolled 63 patients positive for H. pylori in whom first-line and second-line regimens for eradicating failed. Patients were randomized to the V-AS group (vonoprazan 20-mg bid, amoxicillin 750-mg bid, and sitafloxacin 100-mg bid for 7 days) or PPI-AS group (esomeprazole 20-mg bid, rabeprazole 10-mg bid, or lansoprazole 30-mg bid; amoxicillin 750-mg bid; and sitafloxacin 100-mg bid for 7 days). We assessed the outcome of eradication therapy using the. The intention-to-treat and per-protocol eradication rates of V-AS were 75.8% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 57.7-88.9%) and 83.3% (95% CI: 65.3-94.4%), respectively. The respective eradication rates of PPI-AS were 53.3% (95% CI: 34.3-71.7%) and 57.1% (95% CI: 37.2-75.5%). In per-protocol analyses, the eradication rate of the V-AS group was significantly higher than that of the PPI-AS group (P = 0.043); however, no significant differences were observed in intention-to-treat analyses (P = 0.071). Questionnaire scores did not differ significantly between the groups.. The findings suggest that 7-day triple therapy with vonoprazan, amoxicillin, and sitafloxacin is more effective than proton-pump inhibitor, amoxicillin, and sitafloxacin as a third-line regimen for eradicating H. pylori.

To examine the efficacy of third-line Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy with esomeprazole, amoxicillin, and sitafloxacin for patients with clarithromycin- and metronidazole-based first- and second-line therapy failure.. Thirty patients with first- and second-line H. pylori eradication failure were treated prospectively with esomeprazole 20mg twice daily, amoxicillin 750mg twice daily, and sitafloxacin 100mg twice daily for 7 days. After 8-12 weeks, the outcome of eradication therapy was assessed by. All 30 patients completed the study. Eradication was successful in 25 patients and the eradication rate was 83% in the intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses. No specific or significant adverse events were recorded in the 30 patients. Patient characteristics such as sex, body mass index, and pepsinogen I/II ratio did not differ between patients who were treated successfully and those who were not treated successfully.. Third-line H. pylori eradication therapy with esomeprazole, amoxicillin, and sitafloxacin is as safe and effective as previously reported sitafloxacin-based triple therapy.
