-Summary

Most international treatment guidelines currently recommend a 14-day bismuth quadruple therapy as the first-line treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection, especially in areas with high clarithromycin resistance. While this therapy boasts good eradication rates, its administration is complex and has a high incidence of adverse reactions. However, tetracycline is one of the most effective anti-Helicobacter pylori antibiotics, with a resistance rate of less than 3%. This study prospectively evaluates the efficacy and safety of a 14-day triple therapy (high-dose tetracycline combined with bismuth and PPI) versus a 14-day bismuth quadruple therapy as first-line eradication therapy. This novel single-antibiotic therapy has the potential to become a new standard of care for Helicobacter pylori eradication.

+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

  • eradication rate [6 weeks]: Follow-up at week 2 will assess treatment adherence and adverse events. H. pylori status will be evaluated at week 6 using the C13-urea breath test. Eradication and adverse event rates will be compared between groups using the chi-square test.

+Eligibility

Sex: All, ages: 18 Years to 90 Years

Inclusion Criteria:

adult patients (aged ≥18 years) who underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy for the evaluation of gastrointestinal symptoms at Antai Tian-Sheng Memorial Hospital. Eligible individuals were invited to participate in an H. pylori screening program. Those who met either of the following criteria were considered for enrollment: (1) positive results from both the rapid urease test and histology, or (2) a positive culture result.

Exclusion Criteria:

(1) previous H. pylori eradication therapy, (2) a history of gastrectomy, (3) allergy to any of the eradication medications used in this study, (4) antibiotic use within 4 weeks before treatment, (5) the absence of post-treatment assessment for H. pylori eradication.
