Check if stomach-bacteria testing improves rescue treatment for H. pylori
Part of Digestive system, Infections clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to treat Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection that didn’t go away with prior therapy. One approach uses test results to guide which medicines to use, and the other uses standard (“empiric”) treatment. The goal is to see which works better and more safely as a rescue plan.

This trial tests two different antibiotic combinations (both including bismuth) to see which works better at getting rid of an H. pylori infection in the stomach. The goal is to find a more effective way to clear the infection and reduce stomach problems.
This study tests if analyzing a stool sample can help choose the right antibiotics to clear a stubborn H. pylori infection that hasn't been cured before. It aims to improve treatment success with fewer side effects.
This study tests two different combinations of medications to treat H. pylori, a stomach bacteria that can cause ulcers. You would take one of the two combinations for a short time to see which works better at getting rid of the infection.
This trial tests two different ways to treat Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a bacteria that can cause stomach ulcers. One treatment combines three medicines (bismuth, amoxicillin, and vonoprazan), and the other uses four medicines (bismuth quadruple therapy). The goal is to see which works better.
