Review Article New Pharmacological Therapies for Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Journal of Pharmaceutical Research & Clinical Practice, Oct-Dec 2013; 3(4):11-21 Review Article New Pharmacological Therapies for Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease *Rahul Saini1, Shanmukhananda M. P.2, Sunaina3 1. Department of Pharmacology, PGIMS, Rohtak, India. 2. Novartis, Hyderabad, India. 3. Department of Radiology, PGIMS, Rohtak, India. ABSTRACT Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic, relapsing disorder characterized by recurrent symptoms of acid reflux with esophageal injury. It rarely resolves spontaneously, and it is associated with frequent recurrences. It has adverse impact on quality of life. A variety of medications have been used in GERD treatment, and acid suppression therapy is the mainstay of treatment for GERD. Although proton pump inhibitor is the most potent acid suppressant and provides good efficacy in esophagitis healing and symptom relief, about one-third of patients with GERD still have persistent symptoms with poor response to standard dose proton pump inhibitors (PPI). These are generally well tolerated but there are associated with minor side effects such as headache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Newer formulations of PPI which have faster and longer duration of action and potassium-competitive acid blocker, a newer acid suppressant, are also in developing stages. Transient lower oesophageal sphincter relaxation (TLESR) is an important factor behind the occurrence of reflux, and preclinical studies have identified gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) type B receptor (GABAB) agonists and metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mG1uR5) modulators as candidate drugs for modifying TLESR. Another novel therapeutic agent has focused on the underlying mechanisms of GERD, such as motility disorder, mucosal protection, and esophageal hypersensitivity are also under clinical trials. -

Comparative Efficacy of Various Anti-Ulcer Medications After Gastric Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection: a Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis

Recently, vonoprazan, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, has also been used in ulcer treatment after ESD. Methods We searched for all relevant randomized controlled trials examining the efficacy of anti-ulcer medications after gastric ESD, published through October 2017. Healing of iatrogenic ulcers was investigated at 4–8 weeks after ESD. A network meta-analysis was performed to calculate the network estimates. Results Twenty-one studies with 2005 patients were included. Concerning the comparative efficacy for ulcer healing at 4 weeks after ESD, no network inconsistency was identified (Cochran’s Q-test, df = 10, P = 0.13; I2 = 34%). A combination therapy of proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) and muco-protective agent was superior to PPI alone [risk ratio (RR) (95% confi- dence interval, CI) 1.69 (1.20–2.39)]. The combination therapy of PPI and muco-protective agents tended to be superior to vonoprazan [RR (95% CI) 1.98 (0.99–3.94)]. There was no difference of ulcer healing effect between PPI and vonoprazan [RR (95% CI) PPI vs. -
Bismuth Salts for Gastrointestinal Issues: a Review of the Clinical Effectiveness and Guidelines DATE
TITLE: Bismuth Salts for Gastrointestinal Issues: A Review of the Clinical Effectiveness and Guidelines DATE: 24 November 2015 CONTEXT AND POLICY ISSUES Oral bismuth formulations have been used effectively for prophylaxis and treatment of both diarrhea and for treatment of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection.1,2 Bismuth formulations available without a prescription have been commonly used to treat episodic diarrhea for over a century. Bismuth has also been used to treat ulcers prior to the appreciation of its antimicrobial activity against the then unknown causative micro-organism, H. pylori.1 Episodes of diarrhea are especially common in travelers to resource-poor countries. It is estimated that 30% to 70% of international travelers will develop diarrhea during travels or upon return. Typically diarrhea is self-diagnosed and the causal infectious agent remains unknown. While the condition is frequently self-limiting, treatment can reduce the duration, severity, and inconvenience of diarrhea while travelling. Commonly used treatments include antibiotics, antimotility agents, oral rehydration solutions, and bismuth subsalicylate.2 H. pylori infection is a substantial public health concern as it plays a causative role in the pathogenesis of many gastrointestinal conditions such as gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric cancer.3 Current treatment regimens designed to eradicate infection utilize more than one antibiotic simultaneously in a standard triple therapy (STT) consisting of a proton-pump inhibitor (PPI), and two antibiotics. -

Refractory Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Management
Refractory Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Management My Editor’s Pick for this edition is Nabi et al.’s review on the topic of refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease in the context of its pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment. The authors explore these elements in great detail, offering a timely and helpful update on this common gastrointestinal complaint. Authors: *Zaheer Nabi, Arun Karyampudi, and D. Nageshwar Reddy Department of Medical Gastroenterology, Asian Institute of Gastroenterology, Hyderabad, India *Correspondence to [email protected] Disclosure: The authors have declared no conflicts of interest. Received: 10.05.19 Accepted: 02.07.19 Keywords: Antireflux surgery, endoscopy, gastroesophageal reflux, proton pump inhibitors (PPI). Citation: EMJ Gastroenterol. 2019;8[1]:62-71. Abstract Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most commonly encountered gastrointestinal diseases in clinical practice. Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) remain the cornerstone of the treatment of GERD. Up to one-third of patients do not respond to optimal doses of PPI and fall into the category of refractory GERD. Moreover, the long-term use of PPI is not risk-free, as previously thought. The pathophysiology of refractory GERD is multifactorial and includes reflux related and unrelated factors. It is therefore paramount to address refractory GERD as per the aetiology of the disease for optimal outcomes. The management options for PPI refractory GERD include optimisation of PPI, lifestyle modifications, and the addition of alginates and histamine-2 receptor blockers. Neuromodulators, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants, may be beneficial in those with functional heartburn and reflux hypersensitivity. Laparoscopic antireflux surgeries, including Nissen’s fundoplication and magnetic sphincter augmentation, are useful in patients with objective evidence of GERD on pH impedance studies with or without a hiatal hernia. -

Whilst interest in drug devel- opment for GERD has declined over the last few years primarily due to the conversion of most proton pump inhibitor (PPI)’s to generic and over the counter compounds, there are still numerous areas of unmet needs in GERD. Drug development has been focused on potent histamine type 2 receptor antagonist’s, extended release PPI’s, PPI combination, potassium-competitive acid blockers, transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation reducers, prokinetics, mucosal protectants and esophageal pain modulators. It is likely that the aforementioned compounds will be niched for specific areas of unmet need in GERD, rather than compete with the presently available anti-reflux therapies.
