First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a newer acid-reducing drug, Vonaprazan, works better than the standard drug Esomeprazole for healing throat damage caused by acid reflux after a surgery called POEM. About 300 adults who had POEM for achalasia and developed moderate to severe esophagitis will take one of the two drugs for 8 weeks. The main goal is to see which drug heals the throat lining better.
