Randomized multicenter trial comparing minocycline and ornidazole with classical quadruple therapy in Helicobacter pylori treatment
Abstract This study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and cost of minocycline, ornidazole, esomeprazole, and bismuth (MOEB) therapy versus classical therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin, esomeprazole, and bismuth potassium citrate, ACEB) for Helicobacter pylori eradication. In a randomized trial of 39...

| Summary: | Abstract This study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and cost of minocycline, ornidazole, esomeprazole, and bismuth (MOEB) therapy versus classical therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin, esomeprazole, and bismuth potassium citrate, ACEB) for Helicobacter pylori eradication. In a randomized trial of 390 patients, MOEB demonstrated superior eradication rates (93.2% per-protocol, 78.5% intention-to-treat) compared to ACEB (82.5% per-protocol, 72.8% intention-to-treat). Adverse events were significantly lower with MOEB (19.3% vs. 33.8%, p = 0.0019). MOEB was also more cost-effective, with a direct cost of 675.7 CNY versus 970.1 CNY for ACEB, yielding an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of -27.5 CNY per eradication rate. MOEB is a safe, effective, and cost-efficient first-line regimen for H. pylori eradication. |
