H. pylori bacteria location in the stomach
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old.
- You must have tested positive for H. pylori using a special stain test on a stomach tissue sample.
- Biopsy samples must have been taken from both the upper and lower parts of your stomach’s main curve and the opposite side.
- You must not have had any prior stomach surgery.
- You should not have conditions like autoimmune gastritis, liver cirrhosis, advanced cancer, or kidney failure.

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 follows people with an H. pylori stomach infection over the long term after treatment to see how it changes stomach findings. It may help doctors understand whether eradicating the infection improves stomach health and prevents worsening over time.
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 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 follows people who carry a high-risk type of Helicobacter pylori (a stomach bacteria) to see if they develop gastric cancer. It aims to understand who is most at risk and how to monitor them over time.
This trial tests whether treating certain high-risk types of H. pylori (a stomach bacteria) can prevent stomach cancer. If you are 40 or older and have a high-risk H. pylori strain, you may be able to join.
