Active clinical trials for "Gastroesophageal Reflux"

The VeClose pivotal study was a controlled, randomized, prospective, multicenter, pivotal study in which patients with venous reflux in the great saphenous vein (GSV) were treated with either the VenaSeal closure system (VenaSeal SCS) or radiofrequency ablation (RFA) therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate treatment in Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) patients (aged 18~75) with endoscopically proven GERD treated with AGSPT201 Tablet.

The aim of this study is to establish a dose-related effect of a selective 5-HT4 receptor agonist compared to placebo on residual symptoms (regurgitation with or without heartburn) in subjects with GERD who have persistent symptoms while on PPI therapy.

Using genetic information about the individual to pick the right drug for the right disease at the right dose defines personalized medicine. This pilot study seeks to institute pharmacogenomic testing, that is identifying genetic variation that influences patient response to drugs, into the Nemours Children's Health system. We propose to initiate the study by identifying genetic differences in cyp2c19, a gene that is responsible for a certain enzyme in the liver that metabolizes many drugs including a class of drugs called proton pump inhibitors (ppi; Prevacid, Nexium). PPIs are used to treat heartburn and other symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (gerd) and are extensively used in pediatrics. Chronic use of PPIs can cause serious side effects including cold, pneumonia and stomach infections, which gets worse at higher doses. Children who poorly metabolize drugs because of genetic variation in cyp2c19 should get lower doses of PPIs than children who metabolize PPIs normally. Our pilot study will genotype children with gerd or other stomach acid mediated conditions for which a PPI is prescribed using a sample of spit to determine which dose of PPI they get based on the form of the cyp2c19 gene they have. We will study 120 children 2-17 yo diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease (gerd) or other stomach acid mediated conditions for which a ppi is prescribed . Genetic results are available in < 60 minutes, and their doses are determined by their doctor based on genetic results. This study will allow us to gain valuable experience that will be used to expand our genetic program to other genes and drugs.

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 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.

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).

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 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 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.
