Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

Researchers test whether Bacillus probiotics, given alongside standard four-drug antibiotics for H. pylori infection, reduce gut side effects and improve treatment tolerance. The trial enrolls 336 adults with H. pylori who receive either a single-strain probiotic, a multi-strain probiotic, or a placebo during 14 days of antibiotics. Over 8 weeks, the team tracks adverse events, gastrointestinal symptoms, stool consistency, and whether the infection is cleared.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Bacillus probiotic supplements (LiveSpo CLAUSY and LiveSpo DIA30)
What this could lead to
If the probiotics help, doctors could add them to standard H. pylori treatment to ease antibiotic side effects and help patients finish the full course.
What could go wrong
Probiotics may not reduce side effects or improve cure rates, and the trial cannot show whether any benefit lasts. Some people may still get diarrhea or other gut problems during antibiotic treatment.
