Patients infected with H. pylori are treated with rabeprazole 10 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and CAM 200 mg bid or esomeprazole 20 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and CAM 200 mg bid. Eradication rates are compared. Patients who have ever failed in eradication by CAM-based regimen are treated with rabeprazole 10 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and MNZ 250 mg bid or esomeprazole 20 mg bid, AMPC 750 mg bid and MNZ 250 mg bid.

CYP2C19 genotypes and susceptibility to CAM are genetically measured. Other factors are also analyzed with reference to eradication rates.

Eradication rates of H. pylori
Success or failure eradication of H. pylori was judged based on the 13C-urea breath test performed 1 month after the treatment.
Time frame: At 4 weeks after treatment
influence of CYP2C19 genotypes on the eradication rates of H. pylori
influence of CYP2C19 genotypes on the eradication rates of H. pylori are analyzed. CYP2C19 genotypes are classified to the three groups, rapid metabolizer (RM), intermiediate metabolizer (IM) and Poor metabolizer (PM). Because esomperazole is metabolized by CYP2C19, the effects of esomeprazole is influenced by genotypes of CYP2C19. The eradication rates in RMs, IMs and PMs are compared.
Time frame: At 4 weeks after treatment
Influences of susceptibility of H. pylori strains to clarithromycin (CAM) on the eradication rates of H. pylori
Influences of susceptibility to clarithromycin on eradication rates of H. pylori are analyzed.
Time frame: At 4 weeks after treatment
