Active clinical trials for "Peptic Ulcer"

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ilaprazole and omeprazole in the treatment and prevention of peptic ulcer bleeding. Patients with endoscopically diagnosed peptic ulcer bleeding were enrolled in a randomized, double-blind, parallel and positive-controlled trial. They were randomly assigned into two groups, ilaprazole and omeprazole, to be treated for up to 30 days and be seen at day 3, 4, 7, 14 and 30. The primary endpoint was the hemostasis rate (hemostatic groups with endoscopy check ) and re-bleeding rate ( bleeding groups with endoscopy check) within 72 hours. Secondary end points include effective rate of hemostasis, mean volume of blood transfusion, the length of stay and re-bleeding rate, etc.

The purpose of this phase study is to confirm the efficacy and safety by compare ilaprazole and omeprazole in the treatment and prevention of peptic ulcer bleeding. Patients with endoscopically diagnosed peptic ulcer bleeding were enrolled in a multi-center, stratified randomized, non-inferiority test, double-blind, parallel and positive-controlled trial. They were randomly assigned into two groups, ilaprazole and omeprazole, to be treated for up to 30 days. The primary endpoint was the hemostasis rate at the end of 72 hours. Secondary end points include ulcer staging changes within 72 hours, effective rate of hemostasis, hemostasis duration, average blood transfusion and rebleeding rate, etc.

This is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CEGP003 in patients with acute peptic ulcers bleeding, compared to endoscopic epinephrine injection therapy.

Endoscopic high-frequency soft coagulation is available for the management of bleeding or nonbleeding visible vessels during endoscopic submucosal dissection. However, its efficacy on peptic ulcer bleeding has not been elucidated so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of hemostasis with soft coagulation using hemostatic forceps by comparing it with argon plasma coagulation (APC) in a prospective, randomized trial.

Hemospray (TC-325, Cook Medical Inc, Winston-Salem, NC, USA), a new adsorptive nanopowder hemostatic agent for endoscopic treatment of high-risk bleeding peptic ulcers, provides significant ease of administration compared to the combined conventional technique of saline-adrenaline injection with mechanical clip or heater probe applications. The Hemospray powder is easily applied on ulcers at difficult endoscopic positions and ulcers with fibrotic bases, where the combined conventional technique has limited efficacy. Building up on preliminary work from small single-arm studies, the investigators aim to establish the efficacy and safety of Hemospray in treating bleeding peptic ulcers in comparison with the combined conventional technique. The investigators propose a pilot study to establish our centre's feasibility of performing a prospective, randomized, parallel group trial, which compares the efficacy of Hemospray with the combined conventional technique, in the endoscopic treatment of high-risk bleeding peptic ulcers. Patients with high-risk bleeding peptic ulcers will be treated with Hemospray to determine its initial hemostasis rate (defined as endoscopically verified cessation of bleeding for at least 5 minutes after endoscopic treatment), rebleeding rate (recurrent hemorrhage during a 4-week period following the initial hemostasis) and its safety profile.

A prospective randomized study to compare the adjunctive use of high dose omeprazole infusion against scheduled second endoscopy in prevention of peptic ulcer rebleeding after therapeutic endoscopy.

The investigators will include those patients with adherent clot on gastric or duodenal ulcers after endoscopic confirmation After receiving well explanation and giving written consent, they are enrolled and will be allocated to 2 groups randomly. Those in the first group will receive intravenous omeprazole 40 mg stat and then 40 mg q12h. Those in the second group will receive intravenous omeprazole 80 mg stat and then 8mg/hr infusion. The patients in both groups will receive intravenous omeprazole for 3 days and then oral esomeprazole qd for further treatment of peptic ulcer. The investigators define rebleeding during admission and within 30 days as primary end points and define surgical intervention for ulcer bleeding, transfusion amount and hospitalization days after allocation as secondary end points.

Endoscopic injection of autologous blood can control bleeding from gastroduodenal ulcers.

Patients with bleeding ulcers identified by endoscopy will be randomly assigned to receive an acid-blocking drug (called a proton pump inhibitor [PPI]) either by mouth every 3 hours for 24 hours or intravenously (IV) by constant infusion for 24 hours. A pH probe in the stomach will be used to determine intragastric pH (a measure of the acid production in the stomach) at baseline and during the 24 hours of therapy. The purpose of the study is to determine if the continuous intravenous administration of the drug provides better reduction of acid in the stomach than the oral administration.

The objective of this study is to implement an optimized perioperative course for patients surgically treated for peptic ulcer perforation in order to improve the outcome for these patients. The optimized perioperative course consists of a number of interventions carried out before, during and after surgery.
