Treating h. pylori and long-term stomach health
Part of Digestive system, Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how treating an H. pylori infection affects the health of your stomach over time. If you have this infection, the treatment may help reduce your risk of future stomach problems, including cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have an active H. pylori infection (a common stomach bacteria).
- Your age must be between 18 and 65 years.
- You cannot have had stomach surgery, severe stomach bleeding, or advanced stomach cancer.
- You must be able to safely have an endoscopy (a tube test to look inside your stomach).

This study follows adults with past or current H. pylori infection to better understand stomach lining changes such as atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, and to monitor for possible progression. It may help by improving how doctors track risk over time and use stored tissue samples to learn more.
This study looks at where H. pylori bacteria are found in the stomach. If you have tested positive for H. pylori through a stomach biopsy and haven't had stomach surgery or serious health issues, you may be able to join.
This study looks at whether having H. pylori infection (a common stomach bacteria) and certain features of stomach growth can predict how early stomach cancer or pre-cancerous changes will behave and what your long-term outlook might be. You may be eligible if you are being treated with a camera-based removal procedure called endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).
This trial compares the types of bacteria in the stomach of people infected with different strains of H. pylori (CagA positive vs. negative). It may help researchers understand how these bacteria affect health.
This trial tests whether treating a specific high-risk type of H. pylori (a stomach bacteria) can lower the chance of stomach cancer. If you carry this type, you may be able to join a study group that gets treatment and is followed over time.
This trial tests whether getting rid of an H. pylori infection in your stomach can help reduce symptoms like pain, bloating, or nausea. If you have this infection and stomach or gut issues, this treatment might make you feel better.
