Helicobacter pylori, Eradication rate
Brief summary
Reverse hybrid therapy achieves a higher eradication rate than concomitant therapy remains unanswered.
Detailed description
A 14-day hybrid therapy invented by our study group appears very promising in H. pylori eradication, achieving excellent eradication rates of 99% and 97% according to per-protocol and intention-to-treat analyses, respectively. Recently, the investigators demonstrated that the eradication rate of reverse hybrid therapy was higher than that of standard triple therapy. However, whether reverse hybrid therapy achieves a higher eradication rate than concomitant therapy remains unanswered.
Interventions
a 7-day quadruple regimen with dexlansoprazole MR 60 mg once daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily, and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily, followed by a 7-day dual regimen with dexlansoprazole MR 60 mg once daily and amoxicillin 1 g twice daily
dexlansoprazole MR 60 mg once daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily, and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for 14 days
