Brief Summary
This prospective, double-blinded, randomized, multicenter study will compare the efficacy and safety of two prokinetic regimens in patients with Rome IV-diagnosed functional dyspepsia. Ninety-two patients will be randomized (1:1) to receive either mosapride 5 mg + DA-9701 30 mg or mosapride 5 mg + matching placebo, three times daily before meals for 4 weeks. The primary endpoint is the proportion of overall responders ("much improved" or "very much improved" on a 7-point Likert scale) at Week 4. Secondary endpoints include overall response at Week 2, change in NDI-K symptom scores and PSQI-K sleep quality scores at Week 4, and safety assessments via laboratory tests and adverse-event monitoring.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in overall dyspepsia symptoms at 4 weeks after drug administration
At 4 weeks after drug administration, the 7-Likert scale(Overall Treatment Evaluation, OTE, 7-Likert scale) is used to assess change. Participants who report "very much improved" or "improved" are considered to show an overall response. The proportion of participants showing an overall response is compared across treatment groups based on the total number of subjects in each group. A responder is defined as a participant who is either symptom-free, reports being "very much improved," or "improved." A response is defined as a change of 50% or more in the total symptom score. The total score is calculated by either multiplying the severity of the four main symptoms or by multiplying both severity and frequency. The total score is defined as the average of the individual functional dyspepsia (FD) symptom scores.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- ≥19 years of age
- Patients diagnosed with functional dyspepsia according to the Rome IV criteria, who can be classified as having postprandial distress syndrome
- Rome IV criteria for functional dyspepsia:
- One or more of the following symptoms:
- Uncomfortable postprandial fullness
- Early satiation
- Epigastric pain
- Epigastric burning
- No evidence of structural disease that could explain the symptoms
- Symptoms must have started at least 6 months before diagnosis and been present during the last 3 months
- No history of gastrointestinal surgery
- No organic lesions found on upper endoscopy within the past 3 months
- Voluntarily signed informed consent to participate in this clinical trial
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with confirmed structural diseases on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, such as esophageal stricture, ulcer stricture, esophagogastric varices, Barrett's esophagus, active peptic ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding, or eosinophilic esophagitis
- Patients who have undergone surgery involving the esophagus, stomach, or duodenum
- Patients with abnormal values in blood chemistry tests within the past month:
- Total bilirubin, creatinine \> 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)
- AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase, BUN \> 2 times the ULN
- Patients with diabetic gastroparesis
- Patients with a history of drug or alcohol abuse within the past year
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Patients currently taking medications that may affect the evaluation of the investigational drug's efficacy (e.g., acid-suppressing agents including PPIs, prokinetics, NSAIDs, anticholinergics, corticosteroids, antidepressants, erythromycin, mirtazapine, etc.) may only participate after a minimum 2-week wash-out period
- Any other conditions that the investigator deems make the patient unsuitable for participation in the study
