Efficacy of a new therapeutic regimen versus two routinely prescribed treatments for eradication of Helicobacter pylori: a randomized, double-blind study of doxycycline, co-amoxiclav, and omeprazole in Iranian patients.
    Digestive diseases and sciences, 2009, Volume: 54, Issue:3

    This study compared a new regimen (group A: doxycycline, co-amoxiclav, omeprazole) and two routinely prescribed regimens (group B: amoxicillin, omeprazole, furazolidone, bismuth; group C: amoxicillin, clarithromycin, omeprazole) to find an acceptable first-line treatment option for Helicobacter pylori. The study population consisted of 189 patients who referred to our clinic to undergo endoscopy due to ulcer-like dyspepsia. The H. pylori eradication rate was 68% in group A, 56% in group B, and 70% in group C according to per-control analysis. There was no statistically significant difference in H. pylori eradication between groups A and B (P = 0.187), groups A and C (P = 0.857), and groups B and C (P = 0.15). In conclusion, although none of the three eradication regimens can be recommended as a first-line eradication treatment, the new regimen is at least as effective and probably better tolerated than the two routinely applied regimens.

Combinations containing amoxicillin-clavulanate and tetracycline are inappropriate for Helicobacter pylori eradication despite high in vitro susceptibility.
    Journal of gastroenterology and hepatology, 2006, Volume: 21, Issue:10

    The purpose of the present paper was to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of amoxicillin-clavulanate and tetracycline-based quadruple therapy as an alternative second-line treatment for H. pylori infection.. The study subjects consisted of 54 patients infected with H. pylori, in whom initial triple therapy had failed. Subjects were randomized to receive the following 7-day therapies: (i) pantoprazole 40 mg b.i.d., tripotassium dicitrate bismuthate 300 mg q.i.d., amoxicillin-clavulanate 1000 mg b.i.d., and tetracycline 500 mg q.i.d. (PBAT); or (ii) pantoprazole 40 mg b.i.d., tripotassium dicitrate bismuthate 300 mg q.i.d., metronidazole 500 mg t.i.d., and tetracycline 500 mg q.i.d. (PBMT). Eradication rates based on antibiotic susceptibility, drug compliance and side-effect rates were evaluated and compared.. The H. pylori eradication rates were 16.0%/17.4% with PBAT and 65.5%/70.4% with PBMT by intention-to-treat (P<0.001) and per-protocol analyses (P<0.001), respectively. In patients who received PBAT, the eradication rates were only 16.7% (2/12) for both amoxicillin and tetracycline-susceptible H. pylori strains. Drug compliance and side-effect rates were similar in the two groups.. Despite high individual in vitro antimicrobial activity, amoxicillin-clavulanate and tetracycline-based quadruple therapy showed low eradication rates, which strongly suggests that it should not be considered as a therapeutic option for H. pylori eradication.

Beta-lactamase inhibitor enhances Helicobacter pylori eradication rate.
    Journal of internal medicine, 2004, Volume: 255, Issue:1

    One-week triple therapy, a combination of acid suppression with two antibiotics, is the gold standard for anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment. There is increasing evidence of H. pylori resistance to classical triple therapy. Recently, it was reported that the amoxicillin-clavulanate combination had a slightly higher activity than amoxicillin alone against H. pylori, and that beta-lactamase inhibitors had 'in-vitro' antibacterial activity against H. pylori.. To evaluate the efficacy of 1 week triple therapy omeprazole, clarithromycin and amoxicillin plus clavulanate compared with omeprazole, clarithromycin and amoxicillin for H. pylori eradication. The study was open randomized.. Sixty dyspeptic patients (36 male, 24 female; mean age 53 +/- 9 years) with Helicobacter pylori infection never treated before, were enrolled and randomly assigned to two different 7-day triple therapies: (i) (n = 30) amoxicillin 875 mg plus clavulanic acid 125 mg b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d. (ACCO); (ii) (n = 30) amoxicillin 1 g b.i.d., clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d., omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d. (ACO). Bacterial eradication was assessed by 13C-urea breath test 4-6 weeks after therapy. Information on gastrointestinal symptoms and antibiotic-related side-effects were recorded using a questionnaire.. All patients completed the study. A significantly higher H. pylori eradication rate with ACCO compared with ACO: (26/30) 86.6 vs. (20/30) 66.6%, respectively (P < 0.05) were observed. No major side-effects were reported, whilst 8% patients complained of mild side-effects; no significant differences were noted between the two groups.. Our results suggest that amoxicillin and clavulanate in combination achieve a higher H. pylori eradication rate than amoxicillin alone, without any increase in side-effects. The combination of amoxicillin and clavulanate may represent an alternative therapeutic scheme for the treatment of H. pylori infection.

Helicobacter pylori eradication to prevent gastric cancer in a high-risk region of China: a randomized controlled trial.
    JAMA, 2004, Jan-14, Volume: 291, Issue:2

    Although chronic Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with gastric cancer, the effect of H pylori treatment on prevention of gastric cancer development in chronic carriers is unknown.. To determine whether treatment of H pylori infection reduces the incidence of gastric cancer.. Prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, population-based primary prevention study of 1630 healthy carriers of H pylori infection from Fujian Province, China, recruited in July 1994 and followed up until January 2002. A total of 988 participants did not have precancerous lesions (gastric atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, or gastric dysplasia) on study entry.. Patients were randomly assigned to receive H pylori eradication treatment: a 2-week course of omeprazole, 20 mg, a combination product of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium, 750 mg, and metronidazole, 400 mg, all twice daily (n = 817); or placebo (n = 813).. The primary outcome measure was incidence of gastric cancer during follow-up, compared between H pylori eradication and placebo groups. The secondary outcome measure was incidence of gastric cancer in patients with or without precancerous lesions, compared between the 2 groups.. Among the 18 new cases of gastric cancers that developed, no overall reduction was observed in participants who received H pylori eradication treatment (n = 7) compared with those who did not (n = 11) (P =.33). In a subgroup of patients with no precancerous lesions on presentation, no patient developed gastric cancer during a follow-up of 7.5 years after H pylori eradication treatment compared with those who received placebo (0 vs 6; P =.02). Smoking (hazard ratio [HR], 6.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.3-16.5; P<.001) and older age (HR, 1.10; 95% CI, 1.05-1.15; P<.001) were independent risk factors for the development of gastric cancer in this cohort.. We found that the incidence of gastric cancer development at the population level was similar between participants receiving H pylori eradication treatment and those receiving placebo during a period of 7.5 years in a high-risk region of China. In the subgroup of H pylori carriers without precancerous lesions, eradication of H pylori significantly decreased the development of gastric cancer. Further studies to investigate the role of H pylori eradication in participants with precancerous lesions are warranted.

Another therapeutic schedule in eradication of Helicobacter pylori.
    Acta medica Croatica : casopis Hravatske akademije medicinskih znanosti, 1997, Volume: 51, Issue:2

    In this study, the efficacy and tolerability of two different therapeutic schedules in eradicating Helicobacter pylori and healing duodenal ulcer were evaluated. The study included 60 patients with duodenal ulcer and Helicobacter pylori infection. They were randomly allocated to either of two groups: group 1 (N = 30) received omeprazole 20 mg for 28 days, amoxicillin 3 x 500 mg for 7 days and metronidazole 3 x 500 mg for 5 days, and group 2 (N = 30) received omeprazole 20 mg for 28 days, ACA (amoxicillin 500 mg plus clavulanic acid 125 mg) 3 x 625 mg for 7 days and metronidazole 3 x 500 mg for 5 days. Endoscopic examination, bioptic urease test and histologic examination were performed before, and 30 and 90 days after the treatment. Endoscopic examination was also performed one month after the beginning of the treatment, when healing of duodenal ulcer was observed in 90% (27/30) of the group 1 patients and in 93.3% (28/30) of the group 2 patients. The Helicobacter pylori eradication achieved in group 1 and 2 was 76.7% (23/30) and 83.3% (25/30), respectively. Side effects were present in 20% (6/30) of the group 1 patients and in 23.3% (7/30) of the group 2 patients. Side effects were mild and did not require interruption of the treatment. A higher rate of eradication was achieved in group 2 than in group 1, but the difference was not statistically significant.

Furazolidone, co-amoxiclav, colloidal bismuth subcitrate, and esomeprazole for patients who failed to eradicate Helicobacter pylori with triple therapy.
    Digestive diseases and sciences, 2009, Volume: 54, Issue:9

    There is increasing evidence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) resistance to the classical triple therapy consisting of a proton-pump inhibitor and clarithromycin with either amoxicillin or metronidazole. This study is aimed at establishing the efficacy and safety of a 14-day regimen to eradicate H. pylori in patients who have failed with the classical triple therapy given for 14 days. One hundred seventy-six patients diagnosed to have H. pylori infection were given triple therapy for 14 days. Fifty-two patients who failed to respond as evident from positive 14C-urea breath test (UBT) done 4-6 weeks after the completion of triple therapy were offered a combination regimen comprised of furazolidone 200 mg b.i.d, co-amoxiclav 1 g b.i.d., colloidal bismuth subcitrate 240 mg b.i.d., and esomeprazole 40 mg b.i.d. for 14 days. The mean age of these patients was 41 +/- 13 years (range 20-67). Thirty-four were males. To document eradication of H. pylori, UBT was repeated 4 weeks after the completion of treatment. On an intention-to-treat analysis, the eradication rate was 81% (42 out of 52) whereas on per-protocol basis, the eradication rate was 82.4% (42 out of 51). In conclusion, this new regimen represents a suitable second-line therapy.
