Shorter h. pylori treatment shows promise in new trial

NCT ID NCT05371249

First seen Jul 17, 2026 ยท Last updated Jul 17, 2026

Summary

This trial tests whether a 7-day course of vonoprazan combined with high-dose amoxicillin and clarithromycin can eradicate H. pylori infection as effectively as the current 14-day extended sequential therapy. About 628 adults with H. pylori infection will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments. The main goal is to compare eradication rates, with secondary focus on side effects and how well patients follow the regimen.
