Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Initially, we planned to recruit 10,000 adults aged ≥20 years who had not previously undergone H. pylori screening or treatment. Eligible participants were to be randomly allocated in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to one of four groups, each receiving a different combination of diagnostic tests. However, a preliminary analysis led to a recalculation of the required sample size. Following the approval of an Institutional Review Board (IRB) amendment, enrollment was discontinued for Group B (HpSA method) and Group D (Two-stage screening method). The final number of participants enrolled in Group B and Group D was 852 and 851, respectively. Groups A (UBT method) and Group C (standard method) will continue to enroll participants through an additional 1:1 randomization until each group reaches a total of 1,350 participants.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Objective: A prospective, randomized trial will be conducted to compare the acceptability, compliance (/adherence), and accuracy of C13 UBT and HpSA in a population-based H. pylori screening and gastric cancer prevention program.
Methods:Open labeled, randomized controlled trial Initially, the investigators will recruit adults with age of ≥20 years who have not received H. pylori screening or treatment. Eligible patients were randomly 1:1:1:1 allocated to (A) The carbon-13 urea breath test (C13 UBT), (B) H. pylori stool antigen test (Vstrip® HpSA), (C) Standard method (Both C13 UBT and HpSA), (D) Two-stage screening method (serology screening only, and then C13 UBT for confirmation if serology test is positive). However, a preliminary analysis led to a recalculation of the required sample size. Following the approval of an Institutional Review Board (IRB) amendment, enrollment was discontinued for Group B and Group D. The final number of participants enrolled in Group B and Group D was 852 and 851, respectively. Groups A and Group C will continue to enroll participants through an additional 1:1 randomization until each group reaches a total of 1,350 participants.
Outcome analysis:
1. Detection rate of H. pylori infection
2. To compare the compliance(/adherence) of screening tests for H. pylori infection in the two randomized groups.
3. To assess the diagnostic accuracy of these tests.
4. To verify the compliance(/adherence) and feasibility of this two-stage screening method
5. Long-term Outcomes: To assess the risk reduction of gastric cancer
