Active clinical trials for "Gastroesophageal Reflux"

For ERD(erosive reflux disease), which pathogenesis is mainly the acid reflux mechanism, primary treatment is therefore PPI. However, NERD(non-erosive reflux disease) is much more complex than ERD and there are more factors causing the typical symptoms. As a result, there is no consensus for the treatment of NERD besides using PPI similar to GERD(gastroesophageal reflux diseas). This study intent to evaluate the effect of PPI(Esomezol) on NERD patients and analyze the improvement of symptoms and the factors related to the result.

The study evaluates the effect on gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) of infants sitting in a stable upright position during 20 min. This is an addendum to the previous study with record number clinical trials.gov NCT02124863

The purpose of this study is to compare on demand with continuous treatment of endoscopy negative subjects with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), with esomeprazole 20-mg once daily, with regards to willingness to continue in the study as a result of satisfactory treatment over a six-month long term management period, after initial symptom relief.

The purpose of this study is to exploratorily evaluate the effect of vonoprazan 20 mg on sleep disturbance of patients with reflux esophagitis, who have heartburn and/or regurgitation and ≥ 6.0 in the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) global score despite the maintenance treatment with PPI other than vonoprazan.

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ilaprazole relative to that of esomeprazole in healing erosive esophagitis and resolving accompanying symptoms of GERD.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of dexlansoprazole compared to placebo in relief of daytime and nighttime heartburn over 4 weeks in Chinese participants with symptomatic non-erosive Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ilaprazole 20 mg in patients with non-erosive reflux disease. This study intends to demonstrate the clinical superiority of Ilaprazole 20 mg to placebo administered once daily for 4 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Transoral Incisionless Fundoplication (TIF) performed with EsophyX as compared to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy for the treatment of chronic Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) patients with refractory symptoms on Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs).

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic condition, which may significantly decrease patients' quality of life due to the typical symptoms - heartburn and regurgitation. These are caused by increasing number of transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations, regularly recurring reflux of gastric content into oesophagus, acidification of the esophagus and consequent esophageal mucosa damage. In addition, an important role is played by the increase in production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, the slowdown in the evacuation of the contents from the stomach and increase of gastric and intra-abdominal pressure. All of these factors may depend on the patient's diet. Theoretical premises of the positive influence of including dietary fiber on the course of gastroesophageal reflux disease may be the fact that dietary fiber may absorb nitric oxide (NO) containing in food, which in turn has relaxing effects on the lower esophageal sphincter. In addition, fiber deficiency has been shown to be associated with increased chance of developing hiatal hernia, which is associated with greater risk of the disease manifestations. There is lack of data to confirm that dietary interventions like higher dietary fiber intake may lead to lower frequency of GERD symptoms and influence objective criteria (those, obtained during esophageal pH-impedance (here and further: pH - pondus hydrogenii, i.e. quantity of hydrogen, a scale to measure acidity of a solution) recording and high resolution esophageal manometry). Mucofalk® is a drug of plant origin, consisting of a shell seeds of Plantago ovata (ispaghula, psyllium). High content of mucuses in the composition of psyllium seed allows it to include to group of soft food fibers, which has fundamental value for the appointment of a drug at a number of diseases, when, for example, the use of coarse food fibres not recommended or contraindicated. Mucofalk is the registered medicinal (registration number of the Russian State register of medicines P N014176/01, registration date 14.07.2008, manufacturer: Lozan Pharma Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung (GmbH), packager: Dr. Falk Pharma GmbH, Germany). Recommended dosage and administration: orally, adults and children over 12 years - 1 pack. 2-6 times a day. Before use, the contents of 1 packet poured in a glass, in which slowly poured with cold water (150 ml), stir and drink immediately. Then drink another glass of liquid.
