Effect of Antibiotic Susceptibility and CYP3A4/5 and CYP2C19 Genotype on the Outcome of Vonoprazan-Containing Helicobacter pylori Eradication Therapy. Antibiotics (Basel) 2020; 9:antibiotics9100645. [PMID: 32993151 PMCID: PMC7599771 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics9100645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2020] [Revised: 09/24/2020] [Accepted: 09/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Helicobacter pylori eradication containing the potassium-competitive acid blocker, vonoprazan, achieves a higher eradication rate than therapy with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Because vonoprazan is mainly metabolized by CYP3A4/5, CYP genotype may affect the eradication rate. We investigated the influence of antibiotic susceptibility and CYP3A4/5 and CYP2C19 genotypes on the eradication rates. Methods: A total of 307 Japanese who were genotyped for CYP3A4 *1/*22, CYP3A5 *1/*3 and CYP2C19 *1/*2/*3/*17, and investigated for susceptibility to antimicrobial agents, received vonoprazan-containing regimens: (1) With amoxicillin and clarithromycin as the first-line treatment; (2) with amoxicillin and metronidazole as the second-line treatment; or (3) with amoxicillin and sitafloxacin as the third-line treatment. Results: The eradication rate was 84.5% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 78.9–89.1%) using first-line, 92.6% (95% CI: 82.1–97.9%) using second-line and 87.5% (95% CI: 73.1–95.8%) using third-line treatment. Infection with clarithromycin-resistant strains was a predictive factor for failed eradication (odds ratio: 5.788, 95% CI: 1.916–17.485, p = 0.002) in multivariate analysis. No significant differences were observed in the eradication rate of regimens among CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and CYP2C19 genotypes. Conclusions: Genotyping for CYP3A4 *1/*22, CYP3A5 *1/*3 and CYP2C19 *1/*2/*3/*17 before vonoprazan-containing eradication treatment may not be useful for predicting clinical outcomes.

Kim SY, Chung JW. Best Helicobacter pylori Eradication Strategy in the Era of Antibiotic Resistance. Antibiotics (Basel) 2020; 9:antibiotics9080436. [PMID: 32717826 PMCID: PMC7459868 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics9080436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Revised: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 07/21/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is the major reason for Helicobacter pylori treatment failure, and the increasing frequency of antibiotic resistance is a challenge for clinicians. Resistance to clarithromycin and metronidazole is a particular problem. The standard triple therapy (proton pump inhibitor, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin) is no longer appropriate as the first-line treatment in most areas. Recent guidelines for the treatment of H. pylori infection recommend a quadruple regimen (bismuth or non-bismuth) as the first-line therapy. This treatment strategy is effective for areas with high resistance to clarithromycin or metronidazole, but the resistance rate inevitably increases as a result of prolonged therapy with multiple antibiotics. Novel potassium-competitive acid blocker-based therapy may be effective, but the data are limited. Tailored therapy based on antimicrobial susceptibility test results is ideal. This review discussed the current important regimens for H. pylori treatment and the optimum H. pylori eradication strategy.

A 14 day esomeprazole- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy regimen achieves a high eradication rate as first-line anti-Helicobacter pylori treatment in Taiwan: a prospective randomized trial. J Antimicrob Chemother 2020; 74:1718-1724. [PMID: 30768161 DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkz046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2018] [Revised: 01/10/2019] [Accepted: 01/13/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The first-line eradication rate of standard triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection has declined to <80%, and alternative therapies with >90% success rates are needed. Inconsistent eradication rates were reported for proton pump inhibitor- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy. OBJECTIVES We performed a prospective, randomized controlled study to assess the efficacy of esomeprazole- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy and investigated the influencing clinical factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS We recruited 240/278 eligible H. pylori-infected patients after exclusion. They were randomly assigned to 14 day high-dose dual therapy (esomeprazole 40 mg three times daily and amoxicillin 750 mg four times daily for 14 days; EA group) or 7 day non-bismuth quadruple therapy (esomeprazole 40 mg twice daily, clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily and metronidazole 500 mg twice daily for 7 days; EACM group). Urea breath tests were followed up 8 weeks later. RESULTS The eradication rates for the EA and EACM groups were 91.7% (95% CI = 85.3%-96.0%) and 86.7% (95% CI = 79.3%-92.2%) (P = 0.21) in ITT analysis; and 95.7% (95% CI = 90.2%-98.6%) and 92.0% (95% CI = 85.4%-96.3%) (P = 0.26) in PP analysis. The adverse event rates were 9.6% versus 23.0% in the two groups (P = 0.01). The H. pylori culture positivity rate was 91.8%. The antibiotic resistance rates were amoxicillin, 0%; clarithromycin, 14.6%; and metronidazole, 33.7%. CONCLUSIONS A 14 day esomeprazole- and amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy achieves a high eradication rate as first-line anti-H. pylori therapy, comparable to that with 7 day non-bismuth quadruple therapy but with fewer adverse events.

Abstract
The rising prevalence of antibiotic resistance and the long-term safety following eradication therapy are important issues in the management of Helicobacter pylori infection. The prevalence of clarithromycin, levofloxacin, and metronidazole resistance of H. pylori has increased to 21%, 27%, and 45%, respectively, in the Asia-Pacific region. Personalized treatment guided by susceptibility testing may provide a reliably excellent eradication rate in the first-line treatment but is costly and not widely available. Population-specific empirical therapy according to the local prevalence of antibiotic resistance may be an alternative strategy. Levofloxacin-based therapy and bismuth quadruple therapy are the recommended second-line rescue therapy. Susceptibility testing or genotypic resistance-guided therapy is the preferred treatment for refractory H. pylori infection, but empirical therapy may be an acceptable alternative. Eradication of H. pylori leads to short-term perturbation of gut microbiota. The diversity of gut microbiota can be restored months after eradication therapy, but the speed of recovery varies with regimens. The short-term increases of antibiotic resistance of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae may be restored to basal states months after H. pylori eradication. Future studies that apply in-depth sequencing, such as shotgun metagenomics sequencing, are needed to clarify whether the compositions of gut microbiota at the species level are fully restored.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) may enter a non-replicative, non-culturable, low metabolically active state, the so-called coccoid form, to survive in extreme environmental conditions. Since coccoid forms are not susceptible to antibiotics, they could represent a cause of therapy failure even in the absence of antibiotic resistance, i.e., relapse within one year. Furthermore, coccoid forms may colonize and infect the gastric mucosa in animal models and induce specific antibodies in animals and humans. Their detection is hard, since they are not culturable. Techniques, such as electron microscopy, polymerase chain reaction, loop-mediated isothermal amplification, flow cytometry and metagenomics, are promising even if current evidence is limited. Among the options for the treatment, some strategies have been suggested, such as a very high proton pump inhibitor dose, high-dose dual therapy, N-acetycysteine, linolenic acid and vonoprazan. These clinical, diagnostic and therapeutic uncertainties will represent fascinating challenges in the future.

Abstract
Background: International treatment guidelines for Helicobacter pylori infection recommend a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)/amoxicillin/clarithromycin (CAM) regimen (PAC) or PPI/amoxicillin/metronidazole (MNZ) regimen (PAM) as first-line therapy based on culture and sensitivity testing. As incidence rates of antimicrobial agent-resistant strains are changing year by year, it is important to reevaluate the efficacy of eradication regimens. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PAC and PAM based on different locations categorized by the reported incidence of CAM- and MNZ-resistant strains. Methods: Randomized control trials (RCTs) comparing eradication rates between PAC and PAM first-line treatment up to December 2018 were included. We divided RCTs into four groups based on resistance to CAM (< 15% or ≥ 15%) and MNZ (< 15% or ≥ 15%). Results: A total of 27 studies (4825 patients) were included. Overall eradication rates between PAC and PAM were similar (74.8% and 72.5%, relative risk (RR): 1.13, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.91–1.39, P = 0.27) in the intention-to-treat analysis. In areas with low MNZ- and high CAM-resistance rates, PAM had a significantly higher eradication rate than PAC (92.5% vs. 70.8%, RR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.13–0.68). In areas with high MNZ- and low CAM-resistance rates, the eradication rate with PAC was only 72.9%. Conclusions: Overall eradication rates with PAC and PAM were equivalent worldwide. In low MNZ-resistance areas, PAM may be recommended as first-line therapy. However, the efficacy of PAC may be insufficient, irrespective of susceptibility to CAM.

Abstract
The main challenge in the field of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is antibiotic resistance, which influences the efficacy of eradication regimens. Bismuth-containing quadruple therapy has been confirmed as an effective regimen for eradicating H. pylori, especially in strains with antibiotic resistance. High-dose proton-pump inhibitor-amoxicillin dual therapy could decrease the use of unnecessary antibiotics, which is a promising alternative approach. Adjuvant therapy (specific probiotic or vitamin) also showed good results, although more evidence is needed. Novel anti-H. pylori drugs are needed, and the establishment of the H. pylori database is an effective way to acknowledge the real-time information of H. pylori management. This review provides the recent progress of H. pylori treatment, and further studies are needed to address the role of different regimens in improving H. pylori eradication rate, especially in strains with antibiotics resistance.

Vonoprazan vs proton pump inhibitors in treating post-endoscopic submucosal dissection ulcers and preventing bleeding: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials and observational studies. Medicine (Baltimore) 2020; 99:e19357.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vonoprazan is a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) that is frequently used in Japan for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication, treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease, and treatment of post endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) complications. We sought to determine if vonoprazan was superior to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for treating ESD-induced ulcers (as assessed by ulcer healing and shrinkage ratios) and preventing delayed bleeding over various treatment durations (2, 4, and 8 weeks). METHODS We collected randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies that discussed the effectiveness of vonoprazan and PPIs on ESD-induced ulcers and bleeding from PubMed, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Google Scholar. Studies were selected according to pre-established eligibility criteria and data were extracted separately by 2 researchers with double-check. We used the Cochrane risk of bias tool to assess RCTs and the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale to assess observational studies. Meta-analyses, based on the random-effects model, were conducted to compare differences in ulcer shrinkage ratios (%) and odds ratios (ORs) for ulcer healing and delayed bleeding. Publication bias was evaluated using funnel plots and Egger regression test. Heterogeneity was assessed using I statistics. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to check the robustness of results. The evidential quality of the findings was assessed using the GRADE profiler. RESULTS Thirteen studies were included in this meta-analysis. The OR effect sizes of vonoprazan relative to PPIs for ulcer healing were 1.33 (P = .13) with a 95% CI (0.33-3.21) at 4 weeks and 1.48 (P = .09) with a 95% CI (0.81-5.20) at 8 weeks. The overall effect size for the shrinkage ratio was 12.24% (P = .16) with a 95% CI (-4.96-29.44) at 2 weeks. The effect size of its subgroup of H. pylori-positive patients was 19.51% (P < .001) with a 95% CI (11.91-27.12). The overall OR for the occurrence of delayed bleeding was 0.66 (P = .26) with a 95% CI (0.32-1.35). After excluding combination drug studies, the overall ORs between vonoprazan and PPIs on ulcer healing and delayed bleeding were 1.44 and 0.76, respectively. CONCLUSION During the first 2 weeks of treatment, vonoprazan was more effective than PPIs for treating H. pylori-positive patients with ESD-induced gastric ulcers.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori can infect the gastric mucosa and cause chronic inflammation, resulting in various diseases, including gastric cancer. Eradication of H. pylori in all infected subjects is recommended; however, the number of H. pylori strains with antibiotic resistance has increased, and the eradication rate has decreased. Vonoprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker, produces a stronger acid-inhibitory effect than proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The H. pylori eradication rate with vonoprazan was found to be higher than that with PPIs. The H. pylori eradication rate with vonoprazan-based triple therapy (vonoprazan, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin) was approximately 90% and had an incidence of adverse events similar to that of PPIs. We review the current situation of H. pylori eradication in Japan, the first country in which vonoprazan was made available.

Abstract
The Hellenic Society of Gastroenterology recently organized the “Hellenic consensus on Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection”. The aim of this publication is to report the guidelines in order to aid the national gastroenterology community in the management of H. pylori infection. Forty-one delegates from all Greek regions, including gastroenterologists, pathologists, clinical microbiologists, epidemiologists and basic scientists, were invited to this meeting. The participants were allocated to 1 of the 4 main topics of the meeting: i.e., H. pylori diagnosis and association with diseases; H. pylori and gastric cancer; H. pylori and extragastric associated disorders; and H. pylori treatment. The results of each subgroup were submitted to a final consensus vote that included all participants. Relevant data based on international and Greek publications were presented, and the quality of evidence, strength of recommendation, and level of consensus were graded. The cutoff level of 70% was considered as acceptance for the final statement. It is hoped that the recommendations and conclusions of this report will guide Greek doctors in their daily practice concerning the management of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Both clarithromycin-resistant Helicobacter pylori and CYP2C19 polymorphisms may be passed down for generations and are known risk factors for the failure of H. pylori eradication therapy. However, no study has evaluated the risk of clarithromycin triple therapy failure in patients with a parental history of such failure. This study investigated the association between a history of clarithromycin triple therapy failure in parents and clarithromycin triple therapy failure in the offspring. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted using a large administrative claims database of 3 100 000 insured individuals. We identified 404 patients who had both personal and parental records of prescriptions for first-line clarithromycin triple therapy between January 2005 and February 2018. Failure of clarithromycin triple therapy was defined as treatment with second-line therapy after having received first-line clarithromycin triple therapy. A parental history of clarithromycin triple therapy failure was defined as failure of clarithromycin triple therapy by either the father or the mother. Odds ratios were estimated using logistic regression models adjusted for age, sex, diabetes mellitus, and peptic ulcer. RESULTS The incidence of clarithromycin triple therapy failure was 22.5% (91/404). Based on univariate analysis (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 1.90 [1.10-3.29]) and multivariable analysis (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 1.93 [1.10-3.39]), parental history of clarithromycin triple therapy failure was associated with failure of clarithromycin triple therapy in the offspring. CONCLUSION A parental history of clarithromycin triple therapy failure is a risk factor for failure of clarithromycin triple therapy in the offspring.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) alter the composition of the intestinal microbiome, exacerbating indomethacin (IND)-induced small intestinal damage. Vonoprazan fumarate inhibits gastric acid secretion using a different mechanism from PPIs. We investigated the effects of both drugs on the intestinal microbiome and IND-induced small intestinal damage. We sought to clarify whether PPI-induced dysbiosis and worsening of the damage were due to a specific drug class effect of PPIs. Rabeprazole administration increased operational taxonomic unit numbers in the small intestines of C57BL/6 J mice, whereas the difference was not significant in the vonoprazan-treated group but exhibited a trend. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance of the unweighted UniFrac distances showed significant differences between vehicle- and vonoprazan- or rabeprazole-treated groups. L. johnsonii was the predominant microbial species, and the population ratio decreased after vonoprazan and rabeprazole administration. The vonoprazan- and rabeprazole-treated groups showed increased IND-induced damage. This high sensitivity to IND-induced damage was evaluated by transplantation with contents from the small intestine of mice treated with either vonoprazan or rabeprazole. Supplementation of L. johnsonii orally in mice treated with rabeprazole and vonoprazan prevented the increase in IND-induced small intestinal damage. In conclusion, both rabeprazole and vonoprazan aggravated NSAID-induced small intestinal injury by reducing the population of L. johnsonii in the small intestine via suppressing gastric acid secretion.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Helicobacter pylori eradication has become more challenging over the past decade due to increasing antimicrobial resistance, especially to clarithromycin and levofloxacin. We identified 508 recent publications on H. pylori treatment (published between January 2018 and June 2019), focusing on the most highly clinically relevant for this review. RECENT FINDINGS Declining H. pylori eradication rates with clarithromycin triple therapy have led to most guidelines recommending 14 days bismuth-based quadruple therapy or concomitant therapy as the best initial empiric regimen. Substituting amoxicillin for tetracycline or metronidazole in quadruple therapy, and a three-in-one pill version of the regimen, also appear effective. Vonoprazan, a potent acid inhibitor, can overcome much clarithromycin resistance in triple therapy. High-dose dual therapy (proton pump inhibitor with amoxicillin) is a promising alternative approach. Reviewing resistance patterns to select suitable first-line empiric therapies is important in high resistance regions. Molecular methods to evaluate H. pylori antimicrobial susceptibility promise to be simpler than standard microbiological culture. The cost-effectiveness of antimicrobial susceptibility testing in refractory cases remains unproven. SUMMARY Updating clinicians treating H. pylori is important to combat the emerging problems of multidrug antimicrobial resistance in H. pylori strains. Truly novel approaches to H. pylori eradication are needed.

Helicobacter pylori eradication rates with concomitant and tailored therapy based on 23S rRNA point mutation: A multicenter randomized controlled trial. Helicobacter 2019; 24:e12654. [PMID: 31411793 DOI: 10.1111/hel.12654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2019] [Revised: 07/01/2019] [Accepted: 07/14/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the efficacy of tailored therapy based on point mutation presence identified with the dual-priming oligonucleotide (DPO)-based multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method compared with concomitant therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Subjects were randomly assigned concomitant therapy (amoxicillin 1 g, clarithromycin 500 mg, metronidazole 500 mg, and lansoprazole 30 mg twice/day for 14 days) or tailored therapy (amoxicillin 1 g, clarithromycin 500 mg, and lansoprazole 30 mg twice/day for 14 days in point mutation-negative subjects; and amoxicillin 1 g, metronidazole 500 mg, and lansoprazole 30 mg twice/day for 14 days in point mutation-positive subjects). RESULTS A total of 397 and 352 subjects were included in the intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses, respectively. Point mutations were identified in 25.9% of the subjects. The overall eradication rate was not significantly different between the groups by ITT (86.2% vs 81.6%, P = .132) and PP analyses (90.2% vs 86.5%, P = .179). There was no significant difference in the eradication rates between the groups in both the point mutation-negative subjects (91.7% vs 87.3%, P = .154) and the point mutation-positive subjects (71.2% vs 64.7%, P = .312). The eradication rates were significantly lower in the point mutation-positive subjects than in the point mutation-negative subjects in both the concomitant and tailored therapy groups. CONCLUSIONS Tailored therapy based on point mutation presence identified with the DPO-based multiplex PCR method was as effective as concomitant therapy. The eradication rates of both therapy regimens were suboptimal in point mutation-positive subjects.

World J Gastroenterol 2019; 25:5097-5104. [PMID: 31558859 PMCID: PMC6747288 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v25.i34.5097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2019] [Revised: 07/26/2019] [Accepted: 08/07/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The survival and replication cycle of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is strictly dependant on intragastric pH, since H. pylori enters replicative phase at an almost neutral pH (6-7), while at acid pH (3-6) it turns into its coccoid form, which is resistant to antibiotics. On these bases, it is crucial to increase intragastric pH by proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) when an antibiotic-based eradicating therapy needs to be administered. Therefore, several tricks need to be used to optimize eradication rate of different regimens. The administration of the highest dose as possible of PPI, by doubling or increasing the number of pills/day, has shown to be able to improve therapeutic outcome and has often proposed in rescue therapies, even if specific trials have not been performed. A pre-treatment with PPI before starting antibiotics does not seem to be effective, therefore it is discouraged. However, the choice of PPI molecule could have a certain weight, since second-generation substances (esomeprazole, rabeprazole) are likely more effective than those of first generation (omeprazole, lansoprazole). A possible explanation is due to their metabolism, which has been proven to be less dependent on cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 genetic variables. Finally, vonoprazan, a competitive inhibitor of H+/K+-ATPase present on luminal membrane of gastric parietal cells has shown the highest efficacy, due to both its highest acid inhibition power and rapid pharmacologic effect. However current data come only from Eastern Asia, therefore its strong power needs to be confirmed outside this geographic area in Western countries as well as related to the local different antibiotic resistance rates.

Abstract
This review summarizes important studies regarding Helicobacter pylori therapy published from May 2018 to May 2019. The main themes that emerge involve studies assessing the efficacy of bismuth-based regimens. While in recent years the efficacy of bismuth-based quadruple therapy as a second-line therapy has been clearly established, there is now substantial evidence that it is the best performing first-line therapy. Antibiotic resistance was again intensely studied this year, and a clear and dramatic increase in resistance is noted for clarithromycin and levofloxacin; most notably, it may not be possible to support these therapies in most regions of the world much longer without testing. The utility of vonoprazan as an alternative to proton-pump inhibitor therapy, especially in resistant and difficult to treat groups, has also been considered in greater detail this year, as well as means of supporting and enhancing adherence to therapy. Several studies showed that the diversity of gut microbiota was significantly altered shortly after H pylori eradication. However, the diversity was restored to pre-treatment state after 2 months in patients treated with triple therapy. More studies are warranted to assess the long-term changes of gut microbiota after H pylori eradication.

Abstract
Increasing resistance to antibiotics worldwide has adverse effects on the effectiveness of standard therapies to eradicate Helicobacter pylori infection. We reviewed guidelines developed by expert groups in Europe, Canada, and the United States for the treatment of H pylori infection. We compared the recommendations of these guidelines, reconciled them, and addressed the increasing resistance of H pylori to antibiotic therapy regimens. The guidelines recommend bismuth quadruple therapy for first-line treatment, replacing clarithromycin-based triple therapy. There is consensus for concomitant 4-drug therapy as an alternative, especially when bismuth is not available. When therapy is unsuccessful, it is likely due to resistance to clarithromycin, levofloxacin, and/or metronidazole; these drugs, if used previously, should be avoided in subsequent eradication attempts. Second-line therapies should be bismuth quadruple therapy or levofloxacin triple therapy, depending on suspected resistance, reserving rifabutin-based triple and high-dose dual amoxicillin proton pump inhibitor therapy for subsequent treatment attempts. The increasing resistance of H pylori to antibiotic therapy necessitates local availability of susceptibility tests for individuals, and establishment of regional and national monitoring programs to develop evidence-based locally relevant eradication strategies. Further studies into the development of more easily accessible methods of resistance testing, such as biomarker analysis of stool samples, are required. Options under investigation include substituting vonoprazan for proton pump inhibitors, adding probiotics, and vaccine development. Narrow-spectrum antibiotics and new therapeutic targets could be identified based on genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses of H pylori.

Abstract
Aims To compare the efficacy and safety of vonoprazan-based versus proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-based triple therapy in the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. Methods We performed a systematic search in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases for relevant randomized controlled trials up to March 2019. Studies were included if they compared the efficacy and safety of H. pylori eradication of vonoprazan-based and PPI-based triple therapy. Results Three studies with 897 patients were evaluated in this meta-analysis. The H. pylori eradication rate of vonoprazan-based triple therapy was higher than that of PPI-based triple therapy as first-line regimens (intention-to-treat analysis: pooled eradication rates, 91.4% vs 74.8%; odds ratio [OR], 3.68; 95% confidence interval (CI): [1.87–7.26]; P<0.05). The incidence of adverse events in vonoprazan-based triple therapy was lower than that in PPI-based triple therapy (pooled incidence, 32.7% vs 40.5%; OR, 0.71; 95%CI: [0.53–0.95]; P<0.05). Conclusions Efficacy of vonoprazan-based triple therapy is superior to that of PPI-based triple therapy for first-line H. pylori eradication. Additionally, vonoprazan-based triple therapy is better tolerated than PPI-based triple therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vonoprazan is a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB). It is often used in Japan for Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) eradication, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcers and bleeding. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate whether vonoprazan has better therapeutic effect on ESD-induced ulcers and bleeding than proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) at different length of treatment periods (2, 4, and 8 weeks). METHODS This meta-analysis will include both randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies discussing the effectiveness of vonoprazan and PPIs on ESD-induced ulcers and bleeding. Information of studies will be collected from PubMed, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Google Scholar. Studies will be selected according to the eligibility criteria and data will be extracted by 2 people and compared with each other to keep in consistency. Cochrane risk of bias tool will be used to assess RCTs and the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale will be used to assess the observational studies. Meta-analysis based on the random-effects model will be conducted to compare the differences of ulcers' shrinkage ratios (%) and the odds ratios (OR) of scars' stages and delayed bleeding. Publication bias will be evaluated using funnel plots and Egger's regression test. Heterogeneity will be assessed with the I statistics. Sensitivity analysis will be conducted on follow-up periods. The evidential quality of the findings will be assessed with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation (GRADE) profiler. DISCUSSION The findings of the present systematic review will be critical for physicians, patients, and policymakers regarding the use of vonoprazan in ESD-induced ulcers.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors are commonly utilized for the treatment of gastric acid-related diseases, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, and Helicobacter pylori infection, and for the prevention of low-dose aspirin or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced peptic ulcers. Vonoprazan is a first-in-class potassium-competitive acid blocker, which has distinct advantages compared to other conventional proton pump inhibitors in terms of the efficacy for acid suppression. Due to its strong gastric acid suppression capabilities, vonoprazan serves as an effective drug for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and H. pylori infection.

Abstract
Complete eradication of Helicobacter pylori is important for preventing the development of gastric cancer. The outcome of H. pylori eradication therapy is mainly dependent on bacterial susceptibility to antimicrobial agents and potent neutralization of intragastric pH across 24 h, especially when using acid-sensitive antimicrobial agents such as clarithromycin (CLR), amoxicillin and sitafloxacin. However, conventional regimens comprising twice-daily doses (bid) of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are generally insufficient for maintaining the required gastric acid secretion for 24 h for successful eradication in all H. pylori-positive patients. Further, the increasing prevalence of CLR-resistant strains with each year has led to a decrease in eradication rates of first-line PPI- and CLR-containing therapies in developed countries, including Japan. In 2015, the potassium-competitive acid blocker vonoprazan (VPZ) became clinically available in Japan. VPZ competitively inhibits H+/K+-ATPase activity more potently than PPIs (e.g., omeprazole, lansoprazole, rabeprazole, pantoprazole, and esomeprazole). Therefore, a VPZ-containing H. pylori eradication regimen is expected to increase the eradication rate compared with conventional regimens containing a standard dose of PPI. In fact, a recent meta-analysis that investigated the efficacy of first-line eradication therapy showed that a VPZ-containing regimen achieved a higher eradication rate than a PPI-containing regimen. While the Maastricht V/Florence Consensus Report recommends selecting a bismuth or non-bismuth quadruple therapy and concomitant therapy for patients living in areas with high prevalence of CLR resistance, a VPZ-containing regimen demonstrates effectiveness for patients infected with CLR-resistant strains and patients living in areas where the prevalence of CLR-resistant strains is >15%. As a next step, studies are needed to determine the factors affecting the clinical outcome of VPZ-containing therapy and optimal VPZ-containing alternative regimens for tailored treatments. In this review, we summarize the advantages and disadvantages of VPZ in H. pylori eradication therapy.

Abstract
Respiratory failure, driven by airways mucus obstruction, chronic inflammation and bacterial infections, is the main cause of mortality and morbidity in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) due to defects in the Cl- andHCO 3 - transport activity of the CF Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR). Most recent pre-clinical and clinical studies have focused on restoring CFTR function by enhancing its trafficking or transport activity and show promising results. However, there are a significant number of patients that will not benefit from these CFTR-targeted therapies and it is therefore important to identify new non-CFTR targets that will restore lung function, by-passing CFTR dysfunction. The H+/K+-ATPase, ATP12A, has recently been identified as a potential novel target for CF therapies, since its acute inhibition by ouabain was shown to help restore mucus viscosity, mucociliary transport, and antimicrobial activity using in vitro CF airway models, and this effect was linked to an increase in the pH of the airway surface liquid (ASL). Here, we have evaluated the potential therapeutic use of ouabain by investigating the effect of chronically treating fully differentiated CF primary human airway epithelial cells (hAECs) with ouabain, under thin film conditions, resembling the in vivo situation. Our results show that although chronic treatment increased ASL pH, this correlated with a deleterious effect on epithelial integrity as assessed by LDH release, transepithelial electrical resistance, fluorescein flux, and ion transport. Since ATP12A shares approximately 65% identity with the gastric H+/K+-ATPase (ATP4A), we investigated the potential of using clinically approved ATP4A proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for their ability to restore ASL pH in CF hAECs. We show that, despite not expressing ATP4A transcripts, acute exposure to the PPI esomeprezole, produced changes in intracellular pH that were consistent with the inhibition of H+ secretion, but this response was independent of ATP12A. More importantly, chronic exposure of CF hAECs to esomeprazole alkalinized the ASL without disrupting the epithelial barrier integrity, but this increase in ASL pH was consistent with a decrease in mRNA expression of ATP12A. We conclude that PPIs may offer a new approach to restore ASL pH in CF airways, which is independent of CFTR.

Abstract
PURPOSE The global prevalence of Helicobacter pylori remains high in spite of its significant downwards trajectory in many regions. The clinical management of H. pylori infection merits guidance to meet ongoing challenges on whom and how to test, prevent, and cure related diseases. RECENT FINDINGS Several international guidelines and consensus reports have updated the management strategies for cure of the H. pylori infection. The definition of H. pylori gastritis as an infectious disease independent of whether or not presenting with clinical manifestations and symptoms has broadened the use of the test and treat strategy. Patients on selected long-term medications, such as aspirin, other anti-platelet agents, NSAIDs, and PPIs should be considered for H. pylori test and treat. Important progress is made with initiatives in primary and secondary gastric cancer prevention. Uncertainties persist in the interpretation of the role of H. pylori in association with extragastric diseases. Selection of therapies needs to address individual antibiotic resistance and regional surveillance of resistance for the adoption of an effective treatment algorithm.
