Abstract
PURPOSE Helicobacter pylori is the most common cause of infection-associated cancer worldwide. We aimed to evaluate the impact of H. pylori infection and treatment on colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality. PATIENTS US Veterans who completed H. pylori testing between 1999 and 2018. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis among adults within the Veterans Health Administration who completed testing for H. pylori. The primary exposures were (1) H. pylori test result (positive/negative) and (2) H. pylori treatment (untreated/treated) among H. pylori-positive individuals. The primary outcomes were CRC incidence and mortality. Follow-up started at the first H. pylori testing and continued until the earliest of incident or fatal CRC, non-CRC death, or December 31, 2019. RESULTS Among 812,736 individuals tested for H. pylori, 205,178 (25.2%) tested positive. Being H. pylori-positive versus H. pylori-negative was associated with higher CRC incidence and mortality. H. pylori treatment versus no treatment was associated with lower CRC incidence and mortality (absolute risk reduction 0.23%-0.35%) through 15-year follow-up. Being H. pylori-positive versus H. pylori-negative was associated with an 18% (adjusted hazard ratio [adjusted HR], 1.18 [95% CI, 1.12 to 1.24]) and 12% (adjusted HR, 1.12 [95% CI, 1.03 to 1.21]) higher incident and fatal CRC risk, respectively. Individuals with untreated versus treated H. pylori infection had 23% (adjusted HR, 1.23 [95% CI, 1.13 to 1.34]) and 40% (adjusted HR, 1.40 [95% CI, 1.24 to 1.58]) higher incident and fatal CRC risk, respectively. The results were more pronounced in the analysis restricted to individuals with nonserologic testing. CONCLUSION H. pylori positivity may be associated with small but statistically significant higher CRC incidence and mortality; untreated individuals, especially those with confirmed active infection, appear to be most at risk.

Abstract
Background: Helicobacter pylori is implicated in the development of gastritis, ulcers, and various gastric cancers, representing significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare spending. Patients with H. pylori infection have traditionally been treated with oral antibiotics, however, oral therapy is not feasible in all clinical situations. We examined the available evidence supporting the use of intravenous (IV) antibiotics in H. pylori. Methods: This systematic review was carried out by reviewing multiple electronic databases: MEDLINE, CENTRAL, EMBASE, CINAHL, Clinicaltrials.org, and the World Health Organization (WHO) database of clinical trials. Articles published from database inception until February 12, 2023 that discussed the use of IV antibiotics in H. pylori management were included. Results: The search strategy identified 978 studies, with 11 meeting the inclusion criteria. The results demonstrate that there is a lack of robust trials examining the use of IV antibiotics in H. pylori management. Many trials demonstrated that IV antibiotics were safe and efficacious but the results are limited by inconsistencies in the year and geographic location trials were conducted, the IV and oral antibiotic regimens, and the duration of therapy. Conclusions: IV antibiotics appear to be a feasible therapeutic alternative in the management of H. pylori and can be considered, especially in patient populations where oral therapy is contraindicated.

Abstract
Treatment for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection, a leading cause of peptic ulcer disease and an important risk factor for gastric cancer and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, is indicated whenever infection is identified. However, treatment success rates with current guideline-recommended proton-pump inhibitor (PPI)-based regimens remain suboptimal, with one potential factor associated with treatment failure being inadequate acid suppression. Vonoprazan (Voquezna®) is a first-in-class potassium-competitive acid blocker with the potential to provide potent and sustained acid suppression. Following clinical trials conducted mainly in Asia (supported by post-marketing experience from Asia) and the phase III PHALCON-HP trial conducted in the USA and Europe, vonoprazan is now approved in the USA for use in combination with amoxicillin (dual therapy) or amoxicillin and clarithromycin (triple therapy) for the treatment of H. pylori infection in adults. The vonoprazan-based dual and triple therapy regimens were generally well tolerated in PHALCON-HP. In addition, vonoprazan has advantages including a rapid onset of action and no food effect, making vonoprazan-based dual and triple therapy regimens valuable alternatives to standard PPI-based triple therapy in the treatment of H. pylori infection.

Helicobacter pylori Burden in the United States According to Individual Demographics and Geography: A Nationwide Analysis of the Veterans Healthcare System. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2024; 22:42-50.e26.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS There are no contemporary large-scale studies evaluating the burden of Helicobacter pylori in the United States according to detailed demographics. The primary objective was to evaluate H pylori positivity in a large national healthcare system according to individual demographics and geography. METHODS We conducted a nationwide retrospective analysis of adults in the Veterans Health Administration who completed H pylori testing between 1999 and 2018. The primary outcome was H pylori positivity overall, as well as according to zip code-level geography, race, ethnicity, age, sex, and time period. RESULTS Among 913,328 individuals (mean, 58.1 years; 90.2% male) included between 1999 and 2018, H pylori was diagnosed in 25.8%. Positivity was highest in non-Hispanic black (median, 40.2%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 40.0%-40.5%) and Hispanic (36.7%; 95% CI, 36.4%-37.1%) individuals and lowest in non-Hispanic white individuals (20.1%; 95% CI, 20.0%-20.2%). Although H pylori positivity declined in all racial and ethnic groups over the timeframe, the disproportionate burden of H pylori in non-Hispanic black and Hispanic compared with non-Hispanic white individuals persisted. Approximately 4.7% of the variation in H pylori positivity was explained by demographics, with race and ethnicity accounting for the vast majority. CONCLUSIONS The burden of H pylori is substantial in the United States among veterans. These data should (1) motivate research aimed at better understanding why marked demographic differences in H pylori burden persist so that mitigating interventions may be implemented and (2) guide resource allocation to optimize H pylori testing and eradication in high-risk groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With Helicobacter pylori's increasing antibiotic resistance, evidence of more effective treatments is lacking in China, where H. pylori prevalence is nearly 50%. Thus, we performed a network meta-analysis to compare therapeutic regimens. METHODS Data extracted from eligible randomized controlled trials from January 2000 to September 2021 were entered into a Bayesian hierarchical random-effects model to evaluate the efficacy and safety of H. pylori eradication regimens. RESULTS This study included 101 trials involving 21,745 patients. Vonoprazan-bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (VBQT) ranked the highest [surfaces under cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA), 83.64%], followed by high-dose amoxicillin dual therapy (HDDT) [SUCRA, 79.70%, odds ratio (OR)=1.31, 95% credible interval (CrI) (0.36, 4.72)] and proton pump inhibitor-based bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) [SUCRA, 63.59%, OR=1.59, 95% CrI (0.48, 5.24)]. HDDT [OR=2.47, 95% CrI (1.51, 4.06)], BQT [OR=2.04, 95% CrI (1.69, 2.47)], concomitant quadruple nonbismuth therapy (CT) [OR=1.93, 95% CrI (1.19, 3.15)], and sequential therapy (ST) [OR=1.86, 95% CrI (1.50, 2.32)] had higher eradication rates than standard triple therapy (TT). ST (SUCRA, 82.52%) and VBQT (SUCRA, 83.89%) had the highest eradication rate before and after 2010 in the effectiveness ranking, respectively. Furthermore, the H. pylori eradication rate of patients receiving 14-day BQT treatment was higher than that of 10-day BQT regimen [OR=2.55, 95% CI (1.84, 3.53)] and 7-day BQT regimen [OR=3.64, 95% CI (2.64, 5.01)]. CONCLUSIONS The TT regimen was not an optimal choice in China for H. pylori eradication; VBQT, HDDT, and BQT showed better efficacy. After 2010, there is a trend toward significance that VBQT provided a higher H. pylori eradication rate in China, but with only 1 randomized controlled trial. Thus, more supportive real-world data are needed to confirm its effectiveness.

Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modelling to predict intragastric rifabutin concentrations in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2023; 58:159-167. [PMID: 37081832 DOI: 10.1111/apt.17526] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sustained intragastric antibiotic exposure is important for Helicobacter pylori eradication, yet little is known about gastric pharmacology of commonly used H. pylori regimens. For rifabutin, differing intragastric concentrations based on dosing regimen may account for differences in reported eradication rates. AIM To compare intragastric rifabutin concentrations between low-dose rifabutin (50 mg three time daily; as in RHB-105) and generically dosed rifabutin 150 mg once daily, 150 mg twice daily, and 300 mg once daily using a validated Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model. METHODS We obtained plasma pharmacokinetic data from the RHB-105 clinical development programs and used it to develop and validate a whole-body PBPK model using PK-SIM software. We modified the existing rifabutin model to include the impact of omeprazole on gastric pH and emptying time. Modelled intragastric rifabutin exposure was expressed as the time that each regimen maintained its concentration ≥MIC90 . RESULTS Rifabutin 50 mg three times daily achieved significantly longer times with intragastric concentration above MIC90 (22.3 ± 1.1 h) than 150 mg once daily (8.3 ± 1.7 h), 150 mg twice daily (16.3 ± 2.3 h), or 300 mg once daily (8.5 ± 1.9 h) while providing the lowest mean maximal plasma concentration and mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve of all regimens studied. CONCLUSIONS PBPK modelling showed rifabutin 50 mg three times daily had higher intragastric exposure times than 150 mg once daily or twice daily, or 300 mg once daily. This low-dose rifabutin regimen provides the highest potential for H. pylori eradication while minimising systemic rifabutin exposure.

Abstract
Background Helicobacter pylori eradication rates achieved with clarithromycin-based triple therapies are declining due to antibiotic resistance, but data regarding temporal changes in efficacy with these eradication therapies are scarce. Objective To evaluate the efficacy of clarithromycin-based triple eradication regimens over time. Design A comprehensive literature review and time-trend analysis. Data sources and methods Bibliographies of recently published systematic literature reviews were searched and supplemented with a targeted literature review conducted using Medline and Embase databases and ProQuest from conception to May 2021. Studies reporting H. pylori eradication rates of clarithromycin-based triple therapies were included and temporal trends were estimated using a random-effects model. Results Eradication rates for triple therapies containing proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), clarithromycin, and amoxicillin showed a significant decline over the past 23 years (p = 0.0315). However, this decline was not significant when eradication rates achieved with vonoprazan-based triple therapy were included (p = 0.3910). Conclusion Vonoprazan-based triple therapy partially mitigated the decline in eradication rates seen with PPI-based triple therapy, likely due to more powerful acid suppression of vonoprazan.

Abstract
AIMS The study objectives were to 1) characterize the cost drivers of patients with Helicobacter pylori (HP) and 2) estimate HP-related cost savings following lab-confirmed HP eradication with US guideline-recommended treatment compared to failed eradication. METHODS We identified adults newly diagnosed with HP between 1/1/2016-12/31/2019 in the Veradigm Electronic Health Record Database linked to claims data (earliest HP diagnosis = index date). For the overall costs analysis, we required patients to have data available for ≥12 months before and after the index date. Then, we used multivariable modeling to assess the marginal effects of comorbidities on all cause-healthcare costs in the 12 months following HP diagnosis. For the eradication savings analysis, we identified patients with ≥1 HP eradication regimen, a subsequent HP lab test result, and ≥1 year of data after the test result. Then we used multivariable modeling to estimate HP-related cost while adjusting for eradication status, demographics, post-testing HP-related clinical variables, and the interactions between eradication status and each HP-related clinical variable. RESULTS The overall cost analysis included 60,593 patients with HP (mean age 54.2 years, 65.5% female). Mean (SD) 12-month unadjusted all-cause costs were $23,693 ($78,089). Rare comorbidities demonstrated the highest marginal effect. The marginal effects of gastric cancer and PUD were $15,705 and $7,323, respectively. In the eradication savings analysis, 1,835 (80.0%) of the 2295 patients had lab test-confirmed HP eradication. Compared to failed eradication, there were significant one-year cost savings among patients with successful HP eradication and select conditions: $1,770 for PUD, $518 for atrophic gastritis, $494 for functional dyspepsia, and $352 for gastritis. CONCLUSIONS The healthcare costs of patients with HP are partially confounded by their burden of high-cost comorbidities. In the subset of patients with available results, confirmed vs. failed eradication of HP was associated with short-term cost offsets among those with specific to HP-related sequelae.

[PMID: 36518580 PMCID: PMC9743990 DOI: 10.3389/fpubh.2022.1056157] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is closely related to the carcinogenesis of gastric cancer (GC) and gastric non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). However, the systemic trend analysis in H. pylori-related malignancy is limited. We aimed to determine the national incidence trend in non-cardia GC, cardia GC, and gastric NHL in the US during 2000-2019. Method In this population-based study, we included 186,769 patients with a newly diagnosed H. pylori-related malignancy, including non-cardia GC, cardia GC, and gastric NHL from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Registry from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2019. We determined the age-adjusted incidence of three H. pylori-related malignancies respectively. Average annual percentage change (AAPC) in 2000-2019 was calculated to describe the incidence trends. Analyses were stratified by sex, age, race and ethnicity, geographic location and SEER registries. We also determined the 5-year incidence (during 2015-2019) by SEER registries to examine the geographic variance. Results The incidence in non-cardia GC and gastric NHL significantly decreased during 2000-2019, while the rate plateaued for cardia GC (AAPCs, -1.0% [95% CI, -1.1%-0.9%], -2.6% [95% CI, -2.9%-2.3%], and -0.2% [95% CI, -0.7%-0.3%], respectively). For non-cardia GC, the incidence significantly increased among individuals aged 20-64 years (AAPC, 0.8% [95% CI, 0.6-1.0%]). A relative slower decline in incidence was also observed for women (AAPC, -0.4% [95% CI, -0.6%-0.2%], P for interaction < 0.05). The incidence of cardia GC reduced dramatically among Hispanics (AAPC, -0.8% [95% CI, -1.4%-0.3%]), however it increased significantly among nonmetropolitan residents (AAPC, 0.8% [95% CI, 0.4-1.3%]). For gastric NHL, the decreasing incidence were significantly slower for those aged 20-64 years (AAPC, -1.5% [95% CI, -1.9-1.1%]) and Black individuals (AAPC, -1.3% [95% CI, -1.9-1.1%]). Additionally, the highest incidence was observed among Asian and the Black for non-cardia GC, while Whites had the highest incidence of cardia GC and Hispanics had the highest incidence of gastric NHL (incidence rate, 8.0, 8.0, 3.1, and 1.2, respectively) in 2019. Geographic variance in incidence rates and trends were observed for all three H. pylori-related malignancies. The geographic disparities were more pronounced for non-cardia GC, with the most rapid decline occurring in Hawaii (AAPC, -4.5% [95% CI, -5.5-3.6%]) and a constant trend in New York (AAPC 0.0% [95% CI, -0.4-0.4%]), the highest incidence in Alaska Natives, and the lowest incidence among Iowans (14.3 and 2.3, respectively). Conclusion The incidence of H. pylori-related cancer declined dramatically in the US between 2000 and 2019, with the exception of cardia GC. For young people, a rising trend in non-cardia GC was noted. Existence of racial/ethnic difference and geographic diversity persists. More cost-effective strategies of detection and management for H. pylori are still in demand.
