What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

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.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study tests whether betaine hydrochloride, a dietary supplement, can safely lower high gastrin levels in people with autoimmune gastritis. High gastrin is linked to an increased risk of stomach tumors. Sixty participants will receive either betaine or a placebo before meals for up to three months. The goal is to see if this simple approach can reduce tumor risk.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
betaine hydrochloride
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, low-cost way to lower gastrin levels and reduce the risk of stomach tumors in people with autoimmune gastritis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 60 participants. The supplement may not lower gastrin effectively, and long-term benefits or risks are unknown.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 60 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Children (under 18), adults (18 to 64) and older adults (65 and over)

Sex

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: \- 1) Patients diagnosed with autoimmune atrophic gastritis at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, using the diagnostic criteria from the "Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Gastritis in China (2022, Shanghai)" for the diagnosis of atrophic gastritis, combined with serum gastrin, PCA, or IFA for the diagnosis of autoimmune atrophic gastritis. 2\) Patients who have signed the informed consent form for the clinical trial. Exclusion Criteria: * 1\) Patients with Betaine hydrochloride allergies. 2) Patients with gastric ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, or cholelithiasis, as the administration of acid agents may worsen the condition or cause discomfort. 3\) Patients with gastrinomas or other conditions that can cause elevated gastrin levels, apart from autoimmune atrophic gastritis. 4\) Patients who are unable to provide informed consent or sign the informed consent form.
