Brief summary
The study will evaluate the eradication rate and tolerability of modified LOAD regimens (three antibiotics and a proton pump inhibitor (lansoprazole)) for management of HP infection in treatment-naive patients as well as patients who failed previous therapies.
Detailed description
This will be randomized, parallel group, comparative open-label study that will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of a four-drug regimen (modified LOAD regimen) in eradicating HP. The study will evaluate the efficacy of modified LOAD regimens(levofloxacin/moxifloxacin, nitazoxanide, doxycycline and lansoprazole) inpatients who failed previous therapies and compare these regimens with the classic triple therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin and lansoprazole) in treatment naïve patients.
Interventions
Naïve patients will receive classic triple therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin and lansoprazole) for 14 days
Naïve patients will receive Levofloxacin, nitazoxanide, doxycycline and Lansoprazole for 14 days
Naïve patients will receive Moxifloxacin, nitazoxanide, doxycycline and Lansoprazole for 14 days
Experienced patients will receive Levofloxacin, nitazoxanide, doxycycline and Lansoprazole for 14 days
Experienced patients will receive Moxifloxacin, nitazoxanide, doxycycline and Lansoprazole for 14 days
