Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of symptom control in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) participants following treatment with dexlansoprazole.

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called dexlansoprazole. A dual delayed release formulation of dexlansoprazole, referred to as dexlansoprazole modified release (dexlansoprazole MR) was tested to treat people who have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This study looked at the healing of the esophageal lining of the GERD participants who took dexlansoprazole MR.

The study enrolled 296 patients. Participants were assigned to two study groups based on the endoscopy screening procedures to receive treatments as follows:

• Dexlansoprazole 30 mg to participants with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD)
• Dexlansoprazole 60 mg to participants with erosive esophagitis (EE)

All participants were asked to take one capsule in the morning each day throughout the study. All participants were asked to record the presence and maximum severity of daytime and nighttime heartburn and regurgitation symptoms during screening and, if assigned to a treatment group, throughout the duration of the study using the supplied paper diary.

This multi-center trial was conducted in Asia (Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea). The overall time to participate in this study was up to 8 weeks. Participants would make up to 3 visits to the clinic, and would be contacted by telephone 30 days after the last dose of study drug for a follow-up assessment.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. In the opinion of the investigator, the participant is capable of understanding and complying with protocol requirements

2. The participant or, when applicable, the participant's legally acceptable representative signs and dates a written, informed consent form and any required privacy authorization prior to the initiation of any procedures

3. Has persistent typical gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms (heartburn and/or acid regurgitation) for at least 6 months and a frequency of GERD symptoms is at least 4 days within the past 7 days prior to the screening visit

4. Meets one of the following diagnoses verified by the screening endoscopy

1. Has macroscopically normal esophageal mucosa on endoscopy and may thereby be eligible for assignment to the nonerosive reflux disease (NERD) study group

2. Has evidence of erosive esophageal reflux disease on endoscopy, Los Angeles (LA) classification grades B-D, and thereby may be eligible for assignment to the erosive esophagitis (EE) study group

5. Is able and willing to record GERD symptoms in a subject diary and has completed the diary at least for 7 consecutive days during the screening period

6. Male participant who is nonsterilized and sexually active with a female partner of childbearing potential agrees to use adequate contraception from signing of informed consent throughout the duration of the study and for 30 days after last dose

7. A female participant of childbearing potential who is sexually active with a nonsterilized male partner agrees to use routinely adequate contraception from signing of informed consent throughout the duration of the study

8. All female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at Day -1. Participants who have had a bilateral tubal ligation, hysterectomy or are post-menopausal (the absence of menses for 1-2 years with a Follicle-Stimulating Hormone [FSH] level >40 IU/L or absence of menses for >2 years) are not required to use birth control

Exclusion Criteria

2. Known hypersensitivity to any proton pump inhibitor (including lansoprazole, omeprazole, rabeprazole, pantoprazole or esomeprazole), any component of dexlansoprazole

3. Use of a H2 blocker or a PPI other than dexlansoprazole during screening and throughout the study. Previous use of Dexlansoprazole before screening

4. Endoscopic Barrett's esophagus and/or definite dysplastic changes in the esophagus

8. Chronic use (>12 doses/month) of non-;steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including COX 2 NSAIDs within 30 days prior to screening period and throughout the study, however, low dose aspirin up to 325 mg per day is allowed

9. In the judgment of the investigator, participant has clinically significant abnormal hematological parameters of hemoglobin, hematocrit, or erythrocytes at Screening

10. Has a history or clinical manifestations of significant organ failure which would preclude their successful completion of the study

11. Participants using drugs with significant anticholinergic effects such as tricyclics who cannot stay on a stable dose for 4 weeks prior to dosing and throughout the study

12. Participants with known biliary disease

13. Participants with the need for continuous anticoagulant therapy

14. Participants with cancer (except basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin) within 3 years prior to Screening
