The Efficacy and Safety of 14-day Rabeprazole Plus Amoxicillin High Dose Dual Therapy by Comparing to 14-day Rabeprazole-Containing Hybrid Therapy for the Naive Helicobacter pylori Infection in Taiwan: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

High-dose dual therapy (HDDT) can attain acceptable eradication rates provided that the optimal doses, timing and treatment duration are applied. The existing evidence still shows inconsistent reports (< 90%) on HDDT therapy except in some Asian countries. We aimed to assess and compare the efficacy of 14-day HDDT by comparing it to 14-day rabeprazole-containing hybrid therapy (HT) and to investigate the host and bacterial factors predicting the treatment outcomes of eradication therapies.

Methods

In this open-label, randomized controlled trial, we recruited 243 naïve Helicobacter pylori-infected patients from September 1, 2018, to November 30, 2021. They were randomly allocated (1:1) to the HDDT group (rabeprazole 20 mg and amoxicillin 750 mg q.i.d for 14 days,
