Accuracy of stomach and infection tests during routine gastroscopy
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study is looking at how well certain blood or breath tests can detect stomach issues, such as Helicobacter pylori infection, in people who are already having a routine gastroscopy. It will collect samples during the procedure to compare the accuracy of these tests.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a routine gastroscopy (a test to look at your stomach with a camera).
- Your gastroscopy is for diagnostic purposes only, not for treatment.

This study looks at two simple blood tests to see if they can show how severe your stomach inflammation is, which is caused by an H. pylori infection. It may help doctors understand your condition better and guide treatment.
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 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 study checks if a stool test can find H. pylori bacteria in children, instead of using a stomach biopsy during an endoscopy. It may help diagnose stomach issues with less discomfort.
This study looks for certain stomach bacteria (other than the common H. pylori) that might be linked to stomach diseases or early signs of cancer. If you have a stomach condition, your participation could help doctors understand these bacteria better.
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.
