NCT01725906

Brief Summary

We aimed to compare the efficacy of genotypic resistance guided sequential therapy vs. empiric therapy in the third line therapy. Factors affecting the eradication rates, including the antibiotic resistance, CYP2C19 polymorphism, CagA and VacA status will also be assessed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Eradication rate after third line rescue therapy

    Primary End Point: Eradication rate will be evaluated according to Intent-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses. (genotypic resistance versus empirical therapy) Urea breath test will be used to determine the eradication status

    8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • eradication rates in subgroup analysis by antibiotic resistance and regimen

    8 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Empirical therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

selection of antibiotic according to medication history

Drug: empirical therapy

Genotypic resistance guided therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

selection of antibiotics according to genotypic resistance

Drug: Genotypic resistance guided therapy
