Comparing two antibiotic treatments for H. pylori infection
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study compares two different antibiotic combinations (metronidazole vs. tinidazole, both with bismuth and other medicines) to see which works better at getting rid of H. pylori, a bacteria that can cause stomach ulcers. If you have H. pylori and haven't been treated before, you may be able to help us find the best option.

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.
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 compares two antibiotic combinations to treat H. pylori, a common stomach infection. It may help you get rid of the infection more effectively.
This trial tests if a newer acid-blocking medicine works better than a standard one when given with antibiotics and bismuth for treating H. pylori infection, a bacteria that can cause stomach ulcers. It is for adults who have not had treatment for H. pylori before.
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 study is testing whether giving H. pylori treatment based on the specific bacteria found in your stomach works better than the standard one-size-fits-all approach. If you are already getting an endoscopy with a biopsy, this trial could help find the most effective medication for your infection.
