Active clinical trials for "Stomach Ulcer"

A Double-Blind, Controlled Study to Compare the Gastrointestinal Safety of a 14-Day Oral Dosing Regimen of ATB-346 to Sodium Naproxen in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of TAK-438, once daily (QD) compared to AG-1749 (Lansoprazole) in patients with a history of gastric or duodenal ulcer who require long-term therapy of low-dose aspirin.

This is an open label, parallel group, multi-centre, phase III study to assess the safety and efficacy of D961H in maintenance therapy following initial healing therapy in Japanese paediatric patients with reflux esophagitis, and to assess the safety and efficacy of D961H in Japanese paediatric patients treated with long term non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or low-dose aspirin therapy who have a documented medical history of gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer diagnosis. Doses of D961H in this study is set for the 2 groups (weight more than equal 10 kg to less than 20 kg and weight more than equal 20 kg) in the maintenance therapy for healed reflux esophagitis group and the prevention of gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer recurrence by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or low-dose aspirin therapy group, Primary endpoints are evaluated at week 32. Further, this study is designed to evaluate the long term efficacy and safety of D961H for a maximum of 52 weeks, in consideration of the medical needs for long term proton pump inhibitor treatment. Patient can continue study treatment up to 52 weeks, if they want

This pilot and feasibility study will be first US study to determine if a magnetically controlled capsule (MCC) can effectively visualize the anatomy of the stomach like a more traditional upper endoscopy (EGD). This study is designed to enroll participants who have a standard indication for an EGD and are also willing to get an MCC exam. The MCC is driven actively by a clinician unlike prior capsule endoscopes that move passively by gravity or peristalsis. Thus, a physician will be able to look more closely at areas of the stomach that might be concerning and might need further evaluation and/or treatment.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of esomeprazole (D961H) 20 mg versus placebo once daily for up to 24 weeks of treatment involving patients with a history of gastric and/or duodenal ulcers receiving daily nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) therapy by evaluating presence or absence of gastric and/or duodenal ulcers throughout the treatment period (24 weeks) in terms of efficacy on prevention of gastric and/or duodenal ulcers

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) are often associated with gastric ulcers. This study looks at the prevention of these gastric ulcers with one of the three following treatment groups for up to 8 weeks: esomeprazole 40 mg once daily; esomeprazole 20 mg once daily; versus placebo; in patients at risk.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication increases the serum pepsinogen (PG) I/PG II ratio and the percentage change in PG I/PG II ratios was found to be a useful marker of H. pylori eradication (e.g., the PG method). We studied whether the PG method could be an early diagnostic marker of H. pylori eradication even in patients persistently treated with a proton pump inhibitor. Sixty-two H. pylori-positive patients underwent H. pylori-eradication therapy, followed by treatment with a PPI to cure ulcers. Serum levels of PG I and PG II were measured before, at the end of, and at 4 weeks after the eradication therapy. At more than one month after the end of treatments, 13C-urea breath test (UBT) was performed. The cut-off values of percentage changes in PG I/PG II ratios for the diagnosis of eradication of H. pylori were set in proportion to PG I/PG II ratios before eradication in accordance with our previous report. Using the results of UBT as the standard, the percentage change in serum PG I/PG II ratios is useful as an early diagnostic marker for judgment of H. pylori eradication irrespective of PPI treatment.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of esomeprazole 20 or 40 mg once daily versus placebo on the occurrence of peptic ulcers during 26 weeks in subjects on continuous low-dose acetylsalicylic acid.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of gastric ulcers following administration of either PN 200 or Naproxen in subjects who are at risk for developing NSAID-associated ulcers.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of TAK-438, once daily (QD), compared to AG-1749 (Lansoprazole) in patients with a history of gastric or duodenal ulcer who require long-term therapy of non-steroidal anti-Inflammatory drug (NSAID).
