Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether lansoprazole, once daily (QD), compared to gefarnate, twice daily (BID), is effective in preventing the recurrence of gastric and duodenal ulcers in patients receiving long term treatment with low dosage aspirin.

Detailed description

In Japan, low-dose aspirin is one of the commonly prescribed drugs for inhibiting thrombosis and thrombus formation after angina, myocardial infarction, ischemic cerebrovascular disease, coronary artery by-pass surgery and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in patients. While low-dose aspirin is effective in these cases, its use sometimes causes gastric and duodenal ulcers which can lead to gastrointestinal bleeding, and in worse cases may lead to death. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of lansoprazole versus gefarnate in patients with a history of gastric or duodenal ulcers receiving daily low dose aspirin therapy.

Interventions

DRUGLansoprazole

Lansoprazole 15 mg, capsules, orally, once daily and gefarnate placebo-matching capsules, orally, twice daily for up to 12 to 30 months.

Gefarnate 50 mg, capsules, orally, twice daily and lansoprazole placebo-matching capsules, orally, once daily for up to 12 to 30 months.

Inclusion criteria

* The patient was on low-dose aspirin treatment on the day when consent was obtained, and requires the long-term continuous treatment even after treatment with the investigational drug is started. * The patient was confirmed to have a history of gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer.

Exclusion criteria

* Endoscopically confirmed gastric and/or duodenal ulcers on Day 1. * Endoscopically confirmed active upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage on Day 1. * Current or past history of aspirin-induced asthma or hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. * Past or planned surgery affecting gastric acid secretion. * Clinically significant hepatic or renal disorder.

Erosions are mucosal defect \< 3 mm. Ulcers are mucosal defect with white coating ≥ 3 mm. Higher scores indicate greater severity of gastric mucosal injury.

Time frame: Baseline and Month 3.
