Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Efficacy Study to Compare the Treatment Effects of Rabeprazole and Lansoprazole Depending on the Genotyping of CYP2C19 in Treating Reflux Esophagitis (NCT NCT01008696)

NCT ID: NCT01008696

Last Updated: 2013-08-13

Results Overview

Reflux esophagitis evaluated by endoscopy as per LA Classification graded as: A=1 or more mucosal breaks no longer than 5 millimeter (mm) that did not extend between tops of 2 mucosal folds, B=1 or more mucosal breaks more than 5 mm long that did not extend between tops of 2 mucosal folds, C=1 or more mucosal break continuous between the tops of 2 or more mucosal folds but involves less than 75 percent of circumference, D=1 or more mucosal break involving at least 75 percent of circumference. Participants that were not categorized in any of the above mentioned grades (A to D) were considered as cured of reflux esophagitis. Participants were classified as CYP2C19 homozygous extensive, heterozygous extensive and poor metabolizers.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 57

Population: The Full analysis set (FAS) included participants who received study medication at least once and had follow-up data that could be used after Baseline among participants who met eligibility criteria. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) was used. Here, 'n'=participants evaluated for particular category of this outcome measure.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Day 57

Population: The FAS included participants who received study medication at least once and had follow-up data that could be used after Baseline among participants who met eligibility criteria. Last observation carried forward (LOCF) was used. Here, 'n'=participants evaluated for particular category of this outcome measure

Gastroesophageal reflux disease and abdominal GI-related symptoms (heartburn, regurgitation, globus sensation, chronic cough, epigastric pain, non cardiac chest pain, hoarseness, dysphagia, abdominal distension, bloating, post-prandial discomfort, early satiety, nausea, vomiting, belching) experienced by participants were assessed and graded into 4 categories: 0 (Nothing)=No symptom, 1 (Mild)=A little but not uncomfortable, 2 (Moderate)=Present but interfering daily life activities a little, 3 (Severe)=Very uncomfortable, interfering daily life activities or sleeping.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 57

Population: The FAS included participants who received the study medication at least once and had follow-up data that could be used after the Baseline among the participants meeting the eligibility criteria of this study. LOCF was used. Here, 'N'=participants evaluated for this outcome measure.

Investigator's overall assessment of study medication based on the global symptom assessment was measured. The assessment was categorized as: 2=very good, 1=good, 0=as usual, -1=bad and -2=very bad.
