This trial tests whether a new type of acid-reducing drug (vonoprazan) works better than a common one (proton pump inhibitor) when combined with vitamin D or probiotics to clear H. pylori, a bacteria that can cause stomach problems. If you have H. pylori and haven't been treated for it before, this study may be for you.
This trial tests whether a combination of two natural plant compounds, diosmin and hesperidin, can safely and effectively treat Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in people who have not been treated for it before. The goal is to see if this therapy offers a new option for clearing the bacteria.
This study tests whether getting rid of H. pylori bacteria in your stomach helps improve symptoms like pain, bloating, or nausea. You would take antibiotics and a stomach acid reducer, then be checked for symptom changes.
This study tests whether getting rid of H. pylori bacteria in the stomach can help improve symptoms of GERD (acid reflux). It is for people who have been diagnosed with GERD through an endoscopy and also have H. pylori.
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 study looks at whether a common stomach acid medication (PPIs) affects the accuracy of a stool test for detecting H. pylori, a bacteria that can cause ulcers and stomach inflammation. Understanding this helps doctors know when the stool test works best.
