Blood tests for stomach inflammation from H. pylori
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
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 study uses a simple blood test and an ultrasound (sound wave imaging) of your stomach to help doctors predict if an ulcer is about to cause serious problems, like bleeding or a tear. It could help you get the right care sooner.
This study looks at how stomach bacteria (Helicobacter pylori) interact with the normal microbes in your gut. You may be asked to provide tissue, stool, and blood samples to help researchers understand infection and the body’s response.
This trial tests whether getting rid of an H. pylori infection in your stomach can help reduce symptoms like pain, bloating, or nausea. If you have this infection and stomach or gut issues, this treatment might make you feel better.
This trial is for adults aged 18 to 80 who have a Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in their stomach and have never been treated for it. The study will look at how treating the infection affects symptoms like indigestion or stomach pain.
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 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.
