[Jinghuaweikang capsules combined with furazolidone-based triple or quadruple therapy as the rescue treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection: a multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial].

Objective: To explore the efficacy of Jinhuaweikang capsules plus furazolidone-based triple or quadruple therapy as the rescue treatment for Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection. Methods: This is a prospective randomized controlled multicenter clinical trial. Patients with chronic gastritis from H. pylori infection in whom eradication treatment failed were recruited from 6 hospitals. All patients were divided into 4 groups using stratified randomization: group A1 (PAFJ), receiving pantoprazole 40 mg+ amoxicillin 1 000 mg+ furazolidone 100 mg+ Jinghuaweikang 3 capsules, twice a day for 10 d (d1-10); group A2, PAFJ therapy as in group A1, followed by Jinghuaweikang 3 capsules twice a day for 18 d (d11-28); group B1 (PAFB), receiving pantoprazole 40 mg+ amoxicillin 1 000 mg+ furazolidone 100 mg+ bismuth potassium citrate 220 mg, twice a day for 10 d (d1-10); group B2, PAFB therapy as in group B1, followed by Jinghuaweikang 3 capsules twice a day for 18 d (d11-28). At least 28 days after the end of treatment, all patients underwent (13)C urea breath test for assessment of H. pylori eradication. Results: A total of 357 patients, 145 males and 212 females, were recruited, including 90 in group A1, 88 in group A2, 89 in group B1, and 90 in group B2. The eradication rates of H. pylori in groups A1 and A2 were 76.1%(67/88)and 79.6%(70/88) in per-protocol (PP) analysis, 74.4%(67/90) and 79.6%(70/88)in intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis; the rates in groups B1 and B2 were as 85.9%(73/85) and 92.1%(81/88) in PP analysis, 82.0%(73/89) and 90.0%(81/90)in ITT analysis. There were statistically significant differences in PP eradication rates among the 4 groups (P=0.020); there was statistically significant difference between groups A1 and B2, and also between groups A2 and B2 (P=0.003, 0.020), but not between groups A1/A2 and B1 (P>0.05), nor between groups B1 and B2 (P>0.05). No statistically significant differences in ITT eradication rates were found among the 4 groups (P>0.05). The improvement of belching and poor appetite for patients in groups A2 and B2 was better than those in groups A1 and B1. Conclusions: The efficacy of Jinghuaweikang capsules plus furazolidone-based quadruple therapy is superior to combination with furazolidone-based triple therapy as the rescue treatment of H. pylori, and superior to bismuth-containing quadruple therapy. Extending administration of Jinghuaweikang capsules to 28 days may better improve symptoms of indigestion.
