Hybrid vs sequential therapy for eradication of Helicobacter pylori in Taiwan: a prospective randomized trial

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of sequential vs hybrid therapy in patients with Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection.METHODS: From March 2013 to May 2014,one hundred and seventy-five H. pylori infected patients who had not been treated for H. pylori before wererandomized to receive either sequential therapy(rabeprazole 20 mg and amoxicillin 1 g twice daily for 5 d,followed by rabeprazole 20 mg,clarithromycin 500 mg and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for 5 d) or hybrid therapy(rabeprazole 20 mg and amoxicillin 1 g for 7 d,followed by rabeprazole 20 mg,amoxicillin 1 g,clarithromycin 500 mg and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for 7 d). H. pylori status was confirmed by positive results of both rapid urease test and histology examination or a positive result of culture. Eradication efficacy was assessed by follow-up endoscopy with rapid urease test and histological examination 8 wk after the end of anti-H. pylori therapy,or 13C-urea breath test at least 4 wk after completion of treatment. The primary outcome was H. pylori eradication by intension-to-treat(ITT) and per-protocol(PP) analyses.RESULTS: One hundred and sixty-seven patients(83 patients in the sequential group and 84 patients in the hybrid group) completed the study. The compliance rates were 97.6% and 97.7% for the two groups,respectively. The eradication rate was 78.2% for the sequential group and 92% for the hybrid group by ITT analysis(P = 0.01). The eradication rate was 81.9% for the sequential group and 96.4% for the hybrid group by PP analysis(P = 0.01). Univariate analysis for the clinical and bacterial factors did not identify any risk factors associated with treatment failure. Severe adverse events were observed in 2.3% of patients in the sequential group and 2.4% of those in the hybrid group.CONCLUSION: Due to a grade A( 95%) success rate for H. pylori eradication by PP analysis,similar compliance and adverse events,hybrid therapy seems to be an appropriate eradication regimen in Taiwan.

A new look at anti-Helicobacter pylori therapy

With the rising prevalence of antimicrobial resistance,the treatment success of standard triple therapy has recently declined to unacceptable levels (i.e.,80% or less) in most countries.Therefore,several treatment regimens have emerged to cure Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection.Novel first-line anti-H.pylori therapies in 2011 include sequential therapy,concomitant quadruple therapy,hybrid (dual-concomitant) therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy.After the failure of standard triple therapy,a...     

Efficacy of moxifloxacin-based sequential and hybrid therapy for first-line Helicobacter pylori eradication

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of moxifloxacin-based sequential therapy(MBST) versus hybrid therapy as a first-line treatment for Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection.METHODS: From August 2014 to January 2015, 284 patients with confirmed H. pylori infection were randomized to receive a 14-d course of MBST(MBST group, n = 140) or hybrid(Hybrid group, n = 144) therapy. The MBST group received 20 mg rabeprazole and 1 g amoxicillin twice daily for 7 d, followed by 20 mg rabeprazole and 500 mg metronidazole twice daily, and 400 mg moxifloxacin once daily for 7 d. The Hybrid group received 20 mg rabeprazole and 1 g amoxicillin twice daily for 14 d. In addition, the Hybrid group received 500 mg metronidazole and 500 mg clarithromycin twice daily for the final 7 d. Successful eradication of H. pylori infection was defined as a negative 13C-urea breath test 4 wk after the end of treatment. Patient compliance was defined as "good" if drug intake was at least 85%. H. pylori eradication rates, patient compliance with treatment, and adverse event rates were evaluated.RESULTS: The eradication rates in the intention-totreat(ITT) analysis were 91.4%(128/140; 95%CI: 90.2%-92.9%) in the MBST group and 79.2%(114/144; 95%CI: 77.3%-80.7%) in the Hybrid group(P = 0.013). The eradication rates in the perprotocol(PP) analysis were 94.1%(128/136; 95%CI: 92.9%-95.6%) in the MBST group and 82.6%(114/138; 95%CI: 80.6%-84.1%) in the Hybrid group(P = 0.003). The H. pylori eradication rate in the MBST group was significantly higher than that of the Hybrid group for both the ITT(P = 0.013) and the PP analyses(P = 0.003). Both groups exhibited full compliance with treatment(MBST/Hybrid group: 100%/100%). The rate of adverse events was 11.8%(16/136) and 19.6%(27/138) in the MBST and Hybrid group, respectively(P = 0.019). The majority of adverse events were mild-to-moderate in intensity; none were severe enough to cause discontinuation of treatment in either group.CONCLUSION: MBST was more effective and led to fewer adverse events than hybrid therapy as a first-line treatment for H. pylori infection.     

8d与10d序贯疗法根除幽门螺杆菌的疗效比较

目的:比较雷贝拉唑、阿莫西林、克拉霉素、奥硝唑组成的8d与10d序贯疗法根除幽门螺杆菌(H.pylori)的疗效.方法:将经胃镜检查确诊为慢性胃炎和消化性溃疡,且H.pylori阳性的217例患者随机分为2组,8d组(n=104)方案:前4d,雷贝拉唑+阿莫西林;后4d,雷贝拉唑+克拉霉素+奥硝唑.10d组(n=113)方案:前5d,雷贝拉唑+阿莫西林;后5d,雷贝拉唑+克拉霉素+奥硝唑.根除治疗后复查14C-尿素呼气试验,比较两组H.pylori根除率.结果:8d组和10d组H.pyloriITT根除率分别为89.3%和91.2%,PP根除率分别为92.0%和93.7%.两种分析方法比较两组的根除率差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05),但8d序贯疗法降低了成本-效果比,减轻了患者的经济负担.两种方案症状缓解率及不良反应发生率的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05).结论:8d序贯疗法可以获得较高的H.pylori根除率和症状缓解率,且经济、安全,是一种可供选择的一线治疗方案.     

Lansoprazole-based sequential and concomitant therapy for the first-line Helicobacter pylori eradication

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this prospective study was to compare the efficacy of the first‐line lansoprazole‐based sequential therapy and concomitant therapy (lansoprazole, amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole) for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication. METHODS: A total of 169 patients with H. pylori infection were randomly assigned to either the sequential therapy group (n = 85) or the concomitant therapy group (n = 84). A follow‐up endoscopy or urea breath test was examined at least 12 weeks after eradication. RESULTS: Comparable H. pylori eradication rate was observed in both the sequential therapy and concomitant therapy groups by either intention‐to‐treat analysis [sequential 80.0% (68/85) vs concomitant 88.1% (74/84); P = 0.27] or per protocol analysis [sequential, 85.3% (64/75) vs concomitant, 94.6% (70/74); P = 0.60]. Adverse effects were reported and good compliance was observed in both groups (P = 0.72). Although dual antibiotics resistance affected the therapeutic efficacy of sequential therapy (P = 0.03), not concomitant therapy (P = 0.74), it was not an independent factor for predicting the treatment outcome. CONCLUSION: First‐line lansoprazole‐based sequential and concomitant therapy were well‐tolerated and comparable in terms of their H. pylori eradication rate.

Ten-day sequential therapy is more effective than proton pump inhibitor-based therapy in Korea: a prospective, randomized study

Background and Aims: The eradication rate of proton pump inhibitor (PPI)‐based triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has decreased, mainly due to increasing antibiotic resistance, especially against clarithromycin. It has been reported that a 10‐day sequential strategy can produce good outcomes. The aim of this prospective study was to assess the efficacy of sequential therapy as the first‐line treatment for the eradication of H. pylori in Korea. Methods: A total of 116 patients with proven H. pylori infection received 10‐day sequential therapy (20 mg rabeprazole and 1 g amoxicillin, twice daily for the first 5 days, followed by 20 mg rabeprazole, 500 mg clarithromycin, and 500 mg metronidazole, twice daily for the remaining 5 days); 130 patients received 7‐day triple therapy (20 mg rabeprazole, 500 mg clarithromycin, and 1 g amoxicillin, twice daily for 7 days). Eradication was evaluated by the ¹³C‐urea breath test, 4 weeks after the completion of treatment. Compliance and adverse events were assessed. Results: The eradication rates of 10‐day sequential therapy and PPI‐based triple therapy were 79.3% (92/116) and 63% (82/130) by intention‐to‐treat analysis, respectively (P = 0.005), and 81.9% (91/111) and 64.5% (82/127) by per protocol analysis, respectively (P = 0.003). Mild adverse events occurred in both therapy groups (27.5% vs 23.8%), but both treatments were well tolerated. Conclusion: The eradication rate of the 10‐day sequential therapy regimen was significantly higher than that of PPI‐based triple therapy in the Korean population. Ten‐day sequential therapy might be effective as a first‐line treatment for H. pylori infection in Korea.     

Eradication of H pylori infection in a rural population： One-day quadruple therapy versus 7-day triple therapy

AIM: To compare the one-day quadruple therapy with a standard 7-d triple therapy for H pylori eradication in a rural population of China. METHODS: A total of 396 patients with 13C-urea breath test positive for H pylori were assigned into two groups: 239 patients received one-day quadruple therapy (amox icillin 2000 mg qid; metronidazole 500 mg qid; bismuth citrate 900 mg qid and lansoprazole 60 mg once daily) and 157 patients received 7-d standard triple therapy (amoxicillin 1000 mg bid; clarithromycin 500 mg bid and lansoprazole 30 mg bid). All the patients underwent a 13C-UBT to assess the eradication of H pylori infection six weeks after treatment. RESULTS: Two hundred and twenty-nine patients completed the one-day therapy (95.8%) and 148 patients completed the 7-d therapy (94.2%). The one day therapy eradicated H pylori infection in 64 patients (27.95%). In contrast, 103 patients (69.59%) were H pylori negative after the 7-d therapy (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: This pilot study suggests there is no beneficial effect of the one-day therapy in treatment of H pylori infection compared with the 7-d standard therapy.
