ABSTRACT
Background/Aims@#Increasing resistance to clarithromycin (CAM) of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the main causes of recent decrease in eradication rate of standard triple therapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of 7-day tailored therapy based on the existence of CAM resistance. @*Methods@#From January 2017 to May 2022, a total of 481 consecutive patients with H. pylori infection were recruited in Daegu Catholic University Medical Center. Treatment regimen was selected based on the result of CAM resistance test. Patients with CAM resistance (R group) were treated with bismuth-based quadruple therapy for 7 days. Patients without CAM resistance (S group) were treated with standard triple therapy for 7 days. @*Results@#The overall H. pylori eradication rate was 89.4% (379 of 424) by per-protocol (PP) analysis. Patients with CAM resistance mutation included 166 patients (34.5%). The eradication rates of each group were 88.8% (135 of 152) and 89.7% (244 of 272) by PP analysis, for R and S group respectively. By intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis, the eradication rates were 81.3% (135 of 166) and 77.5% (244 of 315) for R and S group. CAM resistance was identified with a dual-priming oligonucleotide-based multiplex PCR. @*Conclusions@#In spite of this high CAM resistance (34.5%), the eradication rate of 7-day tailored therapy based on the existence of CAM resistance was 89.4%. The 7-day tailored therapy based on CAM resistance could be an acceptable treatment selection strategy for H. pylori eradication.
