RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of vonoprazan in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical drug use. METHODS Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about vonoprazan (trial group) versus placebo or proton pump inhibitor (control group) were searched in PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM databases from the inception to June, 2022. After literature screening and data extraction, the qualities of included literature were evaluated with bias assessment tool recommended by Cochrane system evaluator manual 5.1.0. Meta-analysis, sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were conducted by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 9 RCTs were included, involving 1 882 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that: total response rate [OR=1.94,95%CI(1.45,2.58),P<0.000 01], cure rate [OR=2.27,95%CI(1.33,3.86),P=0.003] and remission rate [OR=1.81,95%CI(1.28, 2.55), P=0.000 7] of trial group were significantly higher than control group; there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug events, diarrhea, nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection and alkaline phosphatase elevation between two groups (P>0.05). The results of subgroup analysis showed that cure rate of trial group was significantly higher than control group at 2 weeks of treatment (P<0.05); at 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, there was no significant difference in the cure rate between two groups (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the cure rate between two groups at 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment among the patients with Los Angeles grade A/B (P>0.05); among the patients with Los Angeles grade C/D, the cure rate of patients in the trial group was significantly higher than control group at 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment (P<0.05). The results of sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis showed that the results of this study were robust and the possibility of publication bias was small. CONCLUSIONS Vonoprazan has a considerable effectiveness and safety in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease.
