A Randomized, Prospective and Crossover Study, Comparing the Eradication Rate After 10 Days of Concomitant Therapy to Bismuth Quadruple Therapy Among a Sample of the Lebanese Population
Background
Concomitant therapy and bismuth quadruple therapy are both recommended as first-line treatment regimens for the empiric treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection, especially after the increased resistance to clarithromycin.
Objective
Our goal was to compare both treatment regimens among a sample of the Lebanese population to eventually conclude whether one of these therapies has a higher efficacy than the other one as a first- and second-line treatment regimens.
Methods
It is a randomized, prospective, and crossover study, started from March 2016 to December 2018. Participants were randomly chosen patients diagnosed with active H pylori through histology. Two groups were then formed randomly and equally: patients in the first group received 10 days of concomitant therapy, whereas patients in the second group received 10 days of bismuth quadruple therapy. Eradication was evaluated by the 14C urea breath test done 6 weeks after the end of antibiotic use. A negative breath test indicated a successful eradication. All patients with a positive breath test were then given the other treatment regimen for another 10 days and then re-evaluated for eradication in the same manner.
Results
Both regimens demonstrated similar efficacy as first-line therapies for H pylori eradication. Among 175 patients receiving concomitant therapy, 160 (91.4%) achieved eradication, whereas in the 174 patients treated with bismuth quadruple therapy, 164 (94.2%) were successfully eradicated (P = 0.306). Among patients requiring second-line treatment, 14 of 15 (93.3%) who failed concomitant therapy were successfully treated with bismuth quadruple therapy, whereas all 10 patients (100%) who failed bismuth therapy achieved eradication with concomitant therapy (P < 0.001).
Conclusions
Bismuth quadruple therapy and concomitant therapy are both equally effective first-line treatment regimens for the eradication of H pylori. They are also effective if used as second-line treatment regimens for this purpose. Lebanese Clinical Trials Registry identifier: LBCTR2024095653.
期刊介绍:
We also encourage the submission of manuscripts presenting preclinical and very preliminary research that may stimulate further investigation of potentially relevant findings, as well as in-depth review articles on specific therapies or disease states, and applied health delivery or pharmacoeconomics.
CTR encourages and supports the submission of manuscripts describing:
• Interventions designed to understand or improve human health, disease treatment or disease prevention;
• Studies that focus on problems that are uncommon in resource-rich countries;
• Research that is "under-published" because of limited access to monetary resources such as English language support and Open Access fees (CTR offers deeply discounted English language editing);
• Republication of articles previously published in non-English journals (eg, evidence-based guidelines) which could be useful if translated into English;
• Preclinical and clinical product development studies that are not pursued for further investigation based upon early phase results.
