Efficacy and Safety of Anaprazole, a Novel PPI in the PPS population. The ulcer healing rate difference between anaprazole 20 mg and Rabeprazole 10 mg is −2.9% (95% CI, −16.5–10.7%), and −0.5% (95% CI, −13.5–12.5%) between anaprazole 40 mg and Rabeprazole 10 mg, in the FAS population. Based on the investigator review, the ulcer healing rates of the 10 mg rabeprazole, 20 mg anaprazole, and 40 mg anaprazole groups were 72.0, 70.2, and 77.1%, respectively, in the FAS population and 75.6, 72.1, and 79.5%, respectively, in the PPS population. The ulcer healing rate difference between anaprazole 20 mg and Rabeprazole 10 mg is −1.8% (95% CI, −19.8–16.3%), and 5.1% (95% CI, −12.2–22.3%) between anaprazole 40 mg and Rabeprazole 10 mg, in the FAS population. Most patients (>90%) eventually achieved complete symptom relief. The incidence rates of adverse events were of no significant differences among the treatment groups. Potential possible better liver tolerance was observed in two anaprazole dose groups than rabeprazole 10 mg group. Conclusion: Both at a dosage of 20 and 40 mg daily, anaprazole, is effective with good safety profile in the treatment of active duodenal ulcers in this Phase 2 study, which allows anaprazole to be advanced to a phase III clinical trial.

  • Comparison of the Efficacies of Proton Pump Inhibitors and H2 Receptor Antagonists in On-Demand Treatment of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Methods: Patients with persistent GERD symptoms were enrolledbetween January-November 2015 and were ran- domly separated into two equal groups. The patients in the first group were commenced on ranitidine 300 mg as H2RA and the patients in the second group were commenced on pantoprazole 40 mg. A 4-point Likert-type scale generated by the researchers was applied to evaluate the frequencies of reflux symptoms and their impacts on activities of life and business life. Results: Fifty-two patients were included, of whom 26 (50.0%) were in the PPI group and 26 (50.0%) were in the H2RA group. There were no significant differences between the study groups both before and after treatment in terms of the severity of reflux symptoms. There were significant decreases in the H2RA group in terms of the domains of retrosternal burning sensation, regurgitation, nausea and vomiting, and burping (p=0.036, p=0.027, p=0.020, and p=0.038, respectively).

  • Aciphex (Rabeprazole Sodium)
    ACIPHEXÔ çç \ a-sc -**feks\ (rabeprazole sodium) Delayed-Release Tablets DESCRIPTION The active ingredient in ACIPHEXÔ Delayed-Release Tablets is rabeprazole sodium, a substituted benzimidazole that inhibits gastric acid secretion. Rabeprazole sodium is known chemically as 2-[[[4-(3-methoxypropoxy)-3-methyl-2- pyridinyl]-methyl] sulfinyl]-1H–benzimidazole sodium salt. It has an empirical formula of C18H20N3NaO3S and a molecular weight of 381.43. Rabeprazole sodium is a white to slightly yellowish-white solid. It is very soluble in water and methanol, freely soluble in ethanol, chloroform and ethyl acetate and insoluble in ether and n-hexane. The stability of rabeprazole sodium is a function of pH; it is rapidly degraded in acid media, and is more stable under alkaline conditions. The structural formula is: Na N O H3C O CH2 O CH3 S CH2 CH2 N CH2 N RABEPRAZOLE SODIUM ACIPHEXÔ is available for oral administration as delayed-release, enteric-coated tablets containing 20 mg of rabeprazole sodium. Inactive ingredients are mannitol, hydroxypropyl cellulose, magnesium oxide, low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, magnesium stearate, ethylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate, diacetylated monoglycerides, talc, titanium dioxide, carnauba wax, and ferric oxide (yellow) as a coloring agent. NDA 20-973 (AciphexÔ ) 1 Annotated Package Insert March 5, 1999 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism ACIPHEXTM delayed-release tablets are enteric-coated to allow rabeprazole sodium, which is acid labile, to pass through TM the stomach relatively intact. After oral administration of 20 mg ACIPHEX , peak plasma concentrations (Cmax) of rabeprazole occur over a range of 2.0 to 5.0 hours (Tmax). The rabeprazole Cmax and AUC are linear over an oral dose range of 10 mg to 40 mg.

W. Kwong2, Rui-Xia Yuan1,3, Hao Chen4, Chang Xu5, Yi-Pin Wang1, Gong-Li Yang6, Jin-Zhu Yan1, Le Peng1, Xian-Tao Zeng1, Hong Weng1, Jie Luo1 & Yu-Ming Niu1,6 Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and histamine-2-receptor antagonists (H2RAs) are used for gastro- esophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, the clinical evidence for treatment is poor. We evaluated the effectiveness and tolerability of different doses of PPIs,2 H RAs and placebo in adults with GERD. Six online databases were searched through September 1, 2016. All related articles were included and combined with a Bayesian network meta-analysis from randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The GRADE systems were employed to assess the main outcome. Ninety-eight RCTs were identified, which included 45,964 participants. Our analysis indicated that the full/standard dose of esomeprazole at 40 mg per day was the most efficient in healing among nine different dosages of PPIs and2 H RAs. The main efficacy outcome did not change after adjustments for the area, age, level of disease from endoscopy, year of publication, pharmaceutical industry sponsorship, Intention-to-treat (ITT)/per-protocol (PP), withdrawal rate, pre-set select design bias, single blinded and unblinded studies, study origination in China, study arms that included zero events, inconsistency node or discontinued drug were accounted for in the meta-regressions and sensitivity analyses.

  • 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.
