Study Summary

Although,bismuth-containing quadruple therapy has been highly recommended as first-line treatment regimen for H.pylori infection,it also has its problems and limitations in China.The primary resistance rates of metronidazole,clarithromycin and levofloxacin are all high in China.Besides that,tetracycline cannot be obtained and its complicated administration (four times daily) easily reduce patient compliance. In this study, we proposed to evaluate the eradication rate, safety, and compliance of a minocycline-based bismuth quadruple regimen.

Study Description

A total of 339 H. pylori-infected, treatment-naive patients will be enrolled in this randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients will be randomly allocated into 3 groups: Esomeprazole 20 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg, amoxicillin 1000 mg, and colloidal bismuth pectin 200 mg twice daily for 14 days; Esomeprazole 20 mg, minocycline 100 mg, amoxicillin 1000 mg, and colloidal bismuth pectin 200 mg twice daily for 14 days; Esomeprazole 20 mg, minocycline 100 mg, amoxicillin 1000 mg, and colloidal bismuth pectin 200 mg twice daily for 10 days. Eradication rates will be assessed 4-12 weeks after treatment.
