Intraluminal Therapy for Helicobacter pylori Infection-Comparison of Medicament Containing Tetracycline, Metronidazole, and Bismuth versus Amoxicillin, Metronidazole, and Clarithromycin: A Randomized Controlled Study.

ABSTRACT: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) can be eradicated immediately via local application of single-dose medicament on endoscopic examination. In our previous report, "the eradication rate of intraluminal therapy for H. pylori infection (ILTHPI) is 53.7% (51/95) using medicament containing amoxicillin, metronidazole, and clarithromycin". We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of medicament containing tetracycline, metronidazole, and bismuth and to improve the efficacy of stomach acid control before ILTHPI. After usage of dexlansoprazole (60 mg b.i.d.) or vonoprazan (20 mg q.d.) for 3 days before ILTHPI, 103 of 104 (99.1%) symptomatic H. pylori-infected treatment-naïve patients achieved levels of stomach pH ≥ 6. Patients were randomized to receive ILTHPI with me
