Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This clinical trial evaluated the gastroprotection obtained by the use of rebamipide 300 mg (2x daily) and rabeprazole 20 mg/day (1x daily) associated or not in the prevention of gastric lesions induced by naproxen 1100 mg/day) for 7 days to healthy volunteers of both sexes. This trial also assessed drugs safety and tolerability, the prostaglandin levels (PGE2) in biopsy specimens before and after treatment of each group and the histopathological changes induced by the treatment of each group.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This phase III, single center, double-blind, randomised, multiple-dose trial was performed in a parallel-group design. The subjects were randomly assigned to one of the 4 possible treatments: treatment A - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + 300 mg rebamipide 2x daily + 20 mg rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days; treatment B - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + placebo of rebamipide 2x daily + 20 mg rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days; treatment C - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + 300 mg rebamipide 2x daily + placebo of rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days; and treatment D - 550 mg naproxen 2x daily + placebo of rebamipide 2x daily + placebo of rabeprazole 1x daily over 7 days.

Upper digestive endoscopy was performed before the beginning of the therapies and 12 hours after the last administration (8th day of the study), with collection of the biological samples (biopsies) in the antrum region and 5 in the gastric body at each examination. The samples were preserved in formalin solution and sent for histopathological examination.

The safety and tolerability was assessed by signs and symptoms, adverse events, laboratory tests, vital signs and electrocardiogram (ECG).
