Abstract
BACKGROUND According to the Maastricht VI/Florence consensus report, potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CAB) may improve Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 213 H. pylori treatment-naive patients aged between 18 and 70 years were treated with two regimens. The two regimens are VDT: 20 mg vonoprazan twice a day and 1 g amoxicillin three times daily and EDT: 20 mg esomeprazole four times a day and 750 mg amoxicillin four times daily. 13 C-urea breath tests were used to evaluate eradication rate 4-6 weeks after treatment. Based on propensity score matching (PSM), this retrospective study analyzed the eradication rates, adverse events (AEs), compliance, and antibiotic resistance rates in VDT and EDT groups. RESULTS On intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis, the eradication rate in VDT group (89.0%; 95% CI 81.7-96.3) was non-inferior to that in EDT group (87.7%; 95% CI 80.1-95.3; p = 0.796). The corresponding per-protocol (PP) eradication rates were 94.1% (95% CI 88.4-99.8) and 92.8% (95% CI 86.7-98.9; p = 1.000), respectively. There were no significant between-group differences with respect to compliance or incidence of AEs. CONCLUSIONS The efficacy and safety of 14-day VDT and EDT were comparable. Therefore, 14-day VDT or EDT may be recommended for the first-line treatment of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
A standard bismuth quadruple therapy, a fluoroquinolone-containing triple (or quadruple) therapy or a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-amoxicillin high-dose dual therapy has been recommended as a second-line treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection by the Maastricht VI/Florence Consensus Report. The major shortcoming of levofloxacin-amoxicillin triple therapy is low cure rate for eradicating levofloxacin-resistant strains. With the rising prevalence of levofloxacin-resistant strains, levofloxacin-amoxicillin triple therapy cannot reliably achieve a high eradication rate for second-line treatment of H. pylori infection in most countries now. The present article aims to review current second-line eradication regimens with a per-protocol eradication rate exceeding 85% in most geographic areas. Recently, a novel tetracycline-levofloxacin quadruple therapy consisting of a PPI, bismuth, tetracycline, and levofloxacin for rescue treatment of H. pylori infection has been developed. The new therapy achieved a higher per-protocol eradication rate than levofloxacin-amoxicillin triple treatment in a randomized controlled trial (98% versus 69%). Additionally, the tetracycline-levofloxacin quadruple therapy also exhibits a higher eradication rate than amoxicillin-levofloxacin quadruple therapy. High-dose dual PPI-amoxicillin therapy is another novel second-line treatment for H. pylori infection. The new therapy can achieve an eradication rate of 89% by per-protocol analysis for the second-line treatment in Taiwan. Recently, levofloxacin-based sequential quadruple therapy and potassium-competitive acid blocker have also been applied in the second-line treatment of H. pylori infection. A meta-analysis revealed that a vonoprazan-based regimen has significant superiority over a PPI-based regimen for second-line H. pylori eradication therapy. In conclusion, the eradication rate of levofloxacin-amoxicillin triple therapy is suboptimal in the second-line treatment of H. pylori infection now. Currently, a standard bismuth quadruple therapy (tetracycline-metronidazole quadruple therapy), a tetracycline-levofloxacin quadruple therapy, an amoxicillin-levofloxacin quadruple therapy, a levofloxacin-based sequential quadruple therapy or a high-dose PPI-amoxicillin dual therapy is recommended for the second-line treatment of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
This research aimed to evaluate the eradication efficacy, safety, and gastrointestinal symptom relief rates of empirical bismuth quadruple therapy, high-dose dual therapy, and resistance gene-based triple therapy in primary eradication patients in Yangzhou, China. It also investigated the possible factors influencing the success of different Helicobacter pylori eradication regimens. A single-center, prospective, open-label, randomized controlled study was performed from December 2020 and October 2021, in which 255 patients with H. pylori infection were assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to the three different groups. Our results showed that high-dose dual therapy (91.0%, 71/78) and resistance gene-based triple therapy (94.9%, 75/79) achieved eradication rates and compliance equivalent to those of empirical bismuth quadruple therapy (85.3%, 64/75) in the per-protocol analysis, while high-dose dual therapy had lower rates of adverse events (11.5%, 9/78, P < 0.05), fewer side effects, and greater safety. Most patients' gastrointestinal discomfort symptoms improved after eradication of H. pylori. Poor compliance (P < 0.05) and antibiotic resistance (P < 0.05) were risk factors for the efficacy of H. pylori eradication. Therefore, the appropriate regimen can be individualized for eradication therapy in clinical practice according to the patient's resistance and tolerance to the drug.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-dose dual therapy (HDDT) is an emerging and promising therapeutic regime for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication. However, the pharmacokinetics of the components of HDDT, amoxicillin and proton pump inhibitor, are likely to be affected by body size. In this study, we aimed to find out the impact of body size on the efficacy of HDDT. METHODS We collected the medical data of 385 treatment-naive patients infected with H. pylori who received HDDT (esomeprazole 20 mg and amoxicillin 750 mg four times daily) for 14 days from July 2020 to December 2021. The associations among the eradication efficacy, adverse events, and variables (sex, age, height, body weight, body mass index (BMI), body surface area (BSA), smoking, drinking, etc.) were analyzed respectively in our study. Among these factors, continuous variables were classified into categorical variables using the cut-off values which were calculated by receiver operating characteristic analysis. RESULTS The eradication rate of HDDT was 89.9%. There were 55 (14.3%) patients who occurred adverse events during the treatment. Patients with height <170.5 cm, body weight <60.5 kg, BMI <20.55 kg/m2 , BSA <1.69 m2 had a higher eradication rate (92.1% vs. 84.0%, 93.1% vs. 86.8%, 96.0% vs. 87.8%, 93.4% vs. 84.8%, all p < .05). The multivariate analysis showed that BSA ≥1.69 m2 (OR 2.53, 95% CI: 1.28-4.99, p = .007) was the only independent predictor of eradication failure. CONCLUSION HDDT could achieve better eradication efficacy in patients with small BSA. Clinicians should be aware of the impact of BSA on the H. pylori eradication rate and pay more attention to patients with large BSA.

Abstract
Background Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is one of the most important public health issues, and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) is the first-line therapeutic option. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) and BQT in eradicating H. pylori. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were retrieved from Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane Library to evaluate the effects of HDDT and BQT on H. pylori infection from 2002 to August 31, 2022 (last 20 years). A meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.4 and dichotomous data were estimated by the risk ratio (RR) and the 100% confidence interval (CI). A heterogeneity test and publication bias adjustment were carried out using Stata 12.0. Results 5604 participants from 14 RCTs were included in this meta-analysis. The eradication rates of H. pylori in the HDDT group and the BQT group were 87.46% and 85.70%, respectively. There was a bordered significant difference (RR = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.00 ~ 1.04, P = 0.03) in the intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis. Inconsistently, in per-protocol (PP) analysis, HDDT showed similar efficacy to BQT (89.97% vs 89.82%, RR = 1.00, 95% CI: 0.99 ~ 1.02, P = 0.67). HDDT showed fewer frequent adverse events than BQT (13.00% vs 31.05%, RR = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.33 ~0.50, P < 0.00001). After adjusting for publication bias, the tendency did not change (RR = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.44 ~ 0.55, P < 0.00001). The compliance of the HDDT group has no significant difference compared with the BQT group (95.88% vs 93.84%, RR = 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00 ~ 1.03, P = 0.14). Conclusion HDDT achieved a non-inferiority eradication rate, fewer side effects, and similar compliance compared with BQT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Recently, a large number of trials on proton pump inhibitor-amoxicillin-containing high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) versus bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication have been published with controversial and inconsistent conclusions. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the effects of HDDT for H. pylori eradication compared to BQT. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane library database were searched to collect all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effects of HDDT versus BQT to H. pylori eradication from inception to September 2022. Meta-analysis was conducted to estimate the pooled relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using a random-effects model. Quality of evidence was appraised using Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to determine the reliability and conclusiveness. RESULTS A total of 14 RCTs with 5121 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that there was no statistical significance in the eradication rate between HDDT and BQT (intention-to-treat analysis: 86.7% versus 85.1%, RR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.98-1.04; per-protocol analysis: 89.9% versus 89.4%, RR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.98-1.03; moderate-quality evidence). The incidence of total adverse effects in HDDT group was significantly lower than in BQT group (5.9% versus 34.1%, RR = 0.42, 95% CI: 0.34-0.50; low-quality evidence). No statistical significance was observed in compliance between HDDT and BQT (RR = 1.01, 95% CI, 1.00-1.03, p = 0.07; low-quality evidence). The TSA result for H. pylori eradication rate indicated that the effect was conclusive. CONCLUSIONS Evidence from our updated meta-analysis suggests that HDDT is as effective as BQT in eradicating H. pylori, with fewer adverse effects and similar compliance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A high-dose proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-amoxicillin dual therapy has been investigated for treatment of patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. Currently, the efficacy of this dual therapy remains inconclusive, with controversial findings from various single-center clinical trials. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) compared with the bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) in treatment-naive patients with H. pylori infection. DESIGN A multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled clinical trial. METHODS Three hundred and forty treatment-naïve patients with H. pylori infection were prospectively recruited from seven participating hospitals. The enrolled patients were randomized into one of two treatment groups: the HDDT group (esomeprazole, 20 mg four times daily; amoxicillin, 750 mg four times daily) and the BQT group (esomeprazole, 20 mg, twice daily; bismuth potassium citrate, 600 mg, twice daily; amoxicillin, 1 g, twice daily; metronidazole, 400 mg, four times daily). The primary outcome was eradication rate, and secondary outcomes were safety and patient compliance. RESULTS The eradication rates in the HDDT group versus the BQT group were 86.47% versus 87.06% on intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis, 91.88% versus 92.50% on modified ITT (MITT) analysis, and 91.77% versus 93.04% on per-protocol (PP) analysis, with no significant differences between the two groups. The patient compliance rates in the HDDT group versus the BQT group were 97.02% versus 95.86%, and no significant difference was found between the two groups. Notably, the HDDT group exhibited significantly lower incidence in the drug-induced adverse events (AEs) compared to the BQT group (16.67% versus 47.94%). CONCLUSION HDDT is equally efficacious in eradicating H. pylori infection and resulted in good patient compliance and safety compared with BQT. These findings provide evidence in support of HDDT as a first-line treatment for H. pylori infection. REGISTRATION This clinical trial was registered at The Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (trial registration number: ChiCTR2000039096).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the Maastricht VI/Florence consensus report recommended high-dose proton pump inhibitor-amoxicillin dual therapy as possible rescue therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection, clinical evidence of its efficacy was lacking. OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy, safety, patient compliance, and cost between high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) and culture-based susceptibility-guided therapy (CB-SGT) as a rescue regimen for H. pylori infection. DESIGN A single-center, open-label, randomized controlled clinical trial. METHODS In all, 146 patients with a history of eradication failure were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive HDDT or CB-SGT. HDDT consisted of esomeprazole 20 mg and amoxicillin 750 mg, both given four times per day (qid). CB-SGT consisted of esomeprazole 20 mg twice daily (bid), amoxicillin 1000 mg bid plus clarithromycin 500 mg bid, metronidazole 400 mg bid, or levofloxacin 500 mg daily (qd) for sensitive patients, in that order. For patients with triple resistance, a bismuth-containing regimen with a high dose of metronidazole was chosen, including esomeprazole 20 mg bid, bismuth 220 mg bid, amoxicillin 1000 mg bid, and metronidazole 400 mg qid. All regimens were given for 14 days. RESULTS The eradication H. pylori rates achieved with HDDT in the intention-to-treat (ITT), per-protocol, and modified ITT analyses were all 84.9% [62/73, 95% confidence interval (CI): 76.5-93.9%], compared with 83.6% (61/73, 95% CI: 74.9-92.3%), 84.7% (61/72, 95% CI: 76.2-93.2%), and 84.7% (61/72, 95% CI: 76.2-93.2%) with CB-SGT, respectively. For patients with CYP2C19 polymorphisms of intermediate/poor metabolizers, the eradication rates of HDDT and CB-SGT were 90.70% (39/43, 95% CI: 77.86-97.41%) and 84.21% (32/38, 95% CI: 68.75-93.98%), respectively. The difference between groups was 6.49% (95% CI: -8.00% to 20.97%), and the non-inferiority p value was 0.0128. For patients with a treatment interval of more than 3 months, the eradication rates of the two regimens reached 88.71% (95% CI: 78.11-95.34%) and 71.97% (95% CI: 70.02-90.64%). The difference between groups was 6.74% (95% CI: -5.71% to 19.20%), with a non-inferiority p value of 0.0042. Patient adherence was high in both groups. The HDDT had a lower cost and rate of side effects (p < 0.001) compared with CB-SGT. CONCLUSIONS HDDT can reach an eradication rate of 85% in treatment-experienced patients of H. pylori infection and 91% in patients with CYP2C19 polymorphisms of intermediate/poor metabolizers, with good compliance, lower side effects and costs, and less use of antibiotics. In conclusion, HDDT offers an effective rescue regimen for H. pylori infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy and safety of high-dose amoxicillin (AMX) and proton pump inhibitors (PPI) dual therapy raises much more attention in recent years. Comparative studies among the dual therapies are required to explore more suitable regimens. This study compared the efficacy, adverse events, and patient compliance of three different high-dose dual regimens in treatment-naive patients of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial, including H. pylori-infected treatment-naive patients at 12 tertiary hospitals in China. The eligible subjects received high-dose AMX and esomeprazole (ESO) dual therapy of different regimens. They were randomly assigned to group A (ESO 20 mg plus AMX 750 mg, Qid for 14 days), group B (ESO 40 mg Bid plus AMX 1 g Tid for 14 days), or group C (ESO 20 mg plus AMX 1 g, Tid for 14 days). The eradication rates, adverse events, and patient compliance of the three groups were compared. RESULTS Between April 2021 and January 2022, a total of 1080 subjects were screened and 945 were randomized. The eradication rates in groups A, B, and C were 88.6% (95% CI 84.5%-91.9%), 84.4% (95% CI 80.0%-88.3%), and 86.7% (95% CI 82.4%-90.2%; p = .315), respectively, based on intention-to-treat analysis; 90.3% (95% CI 86.4%-93.3%), 85.5% (95% CI 81.1%-89.2%), and 87.8% (95% CI 83.6%-91.2%; p = .197), respectively, according to modified intention-to-treat analysis; and 90.4% (95% CI 86.5%-93.5%), 85.8% (95% CI 81.4%-89.5%), and 88.3% (95% CI 84.1%-91.7%; p = .202) in per-protocol analysis. History of antibiotics use in 2 years reduced eradication effect in group B (ESO 40 mg Bid, AMX 1 g Tid). The modified intention-to-treat eradication rates were 81.4% vs 90.0% among those with or without a history of antibiotics use in group B (p = .031). The adverse event rates were 13.7%, 12.7%, and 12.1% in groups A, B, and C, respectively (p = .834). Patient compliance of the three groups was similar. CONCLUSIONS Two optimized AMX and PPI dual regimens (ESO 40 mg Bid or 20 mg Tid plus AMX 1 g Tid for 14 days) had similar efficacy, safety and compliance as compared with classical dual regimen (ESO 20 mg plus AMX 750 mg Qid for 14 days) in H. pylori-infected treatment-naive patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-dose dual therapy (HDDT) with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and amoxicillin has attracted widespread attention due to its favorable efficacy in eradicating Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of high-dose PPI-amoxicillin dual therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for H. pylori rescue treatment. METHODS This was a prospective, randomized, multicenter, non-inferiority trial. Patients recruited from eight centers who had failed previous treatment were randomly (1:1) allocated to two eradication groups: HDDT (esomeprazole 40 mg and amoxicillin 1000 mg three times daily; the HDDT group) and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (esomeprazole 40 mg, bismuth potassium citrate 220 mg, and furazolidone 100 mg twice daily, combined with tetracycline 500 mg three times daily; the tetracycline, furazolidone, esomeprazole, and bismuth [TFEB] group) for 14 days. The primary endpoint was the H. pylori eradication rate. The secondary endpoints were adverse effects, symptom improvement rates, and patient compliance. RESULTS A total of 658 patients who met the criteria were enrolled in this study. The HDDT group achieved eradication rates of 75.4% (248/329), 81.0% (248/306), and 81.3% (248/305) asdetermined by the intention-to-treat (ITT), modified intention-to-treat (MITT), and per-protocol (PP) analyses, respectively. The eradication rates were similar to those in the TFEB group: 78.1% (257/329), 84.2% (257/305), and 85.1% (257/302). The lower 95% confidence interval boundary (-9.19% in the ITT analysis, - 9.21% in the MITT analysis, and -9.73% in the PP analysis) was greater than the predefined non-inferiority margin of -10%, establishing a non-inferiority of the HDDT group vs. the TFEB group. The incidence of adverse events in the HDDT group was significantly lower than that in the TFEB group (11.1% vs. 26.8%, P < 0.001). Symptom improvement rates and patients' compliance were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Fourteen-day HDDT is non-inferior to bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, with fewer adverse effects and good treatment compliance, suggesting HDDT as an alternative for H. pylori rescue treatment in the local region.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-dose dual therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication compared to bismuth-containing quadruple therapy. METHODS The electronic database of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception to March 18, 2021. Randomized, controlled trials that evaluated high-dose dual therapy versus bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for H. pylori infection were included. RESULTS We included 6 studies containing 1677 patients with H. pylori infection. This meta-analysis demonstrated that high-dose dual therapy achieved similar eradication rate compared with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (intention-to-treat: 84.6% vs 83.7%, relative risk (RR) = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.97-1.06, P = .49; per-protocol = 88.4% vs 89.0%, RR = 1.00, 95% CI: 0.97-1.04, P = .99). However, highdose dual therapy showed fewer side effects (13.1% vs 32.0%, RR = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.34-0.78, P = .002) and better compliance (96.1% vs 93.3%, RR = 1.03, 95% CI: 1.00-1.05, P = .03) compared to bismuth-containing quadruple therapy. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis demonstrated that high-dose dual therapy is equally effective with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy in eradicating H. pylori, with fewer side effects and better compliance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication has a relatively high rate of side effects and high cost, thus the option of a high-dose dual therapy with a high eradication rate and fewer adverse events is a consideration. However, studies of dual therapy are still scarce and are mostly single-center studies with limited generalizability. Large-scale, multicenter studies are required. Our study investigated and compared the effectiveness, adverse events, patient compliance, and costs of high-dose dual therapy with those of bismuth-containing quadruple therapy in H. pylori-infected treatment-naive patients in a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial. METHOD Treatment-naive patients infected with H. pylori were randomly assigned to receive high-dose dual therapy (esomeprazole 20 mg 4 times daily and amoxicillin 1000 mg 3 times daily, for 14 days) or bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (esomeprazole 20 mg, amoxicillin 1000 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg, and bismuth potassium citrate 220 mg, all twice daily for 14 days). The effectiveness, adverse events, patient compliance, and costs of both groups were compared. RESULTS A total of 700 patients were enrolled. The high-dose dual therapy group (N = 350) achieved eradication rates of 89.4% (intention-to-treat), 90.4% (modified intention-to-treat), and 90.6% (per-protocol), which were similar to rates in the bismuth-containing quadruple therapy group (N = 350), 84.6%, 88.0%, and 88.2%, respectively (p > 0.05). The high-dose dual therapy group had a lower rate of adverse events (12.9% vs. 28.1%, p < 0.001) and lower costs (¥590.2 vs. ¥723.22) compared with the quadruple therapy group, respectively. The compliance of both groups was satisfactory (97.7% high-dose dual vs. 96.8% quadruple, p > 0.05). CONCLUSION High-dose dual therapy for H. pylori eradication had similar efficacy and compliance, fewer adverse events, and lower costs than bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for treatment-naive patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION More attention has been paid to the eradication therapy of Helicobactor pylori with the enhancement of health awareness of patients. However, the increasing antibiotic resistance of H. pylori, due to the wide use and abuse of antibiotics, has become a critical factor affecting the efficacy of eradication. To effectively improve the eradication rate of H. pylori, high-dose amoxicillin-proton pump inhibitor (PPI) dual therapy has recently become one of the hot issues. AREAS COVERED The authors review the schemes and efficacy of high-dose amoxicillin-PPI dual therapies in eradication of H. pylori infection. The review indicates that the H. pylori eradication rate of the dual therapy is overall comparable to or better than that of bismuth-containing quadruple therapy or standard triple therapy. It is more effective to administer both amoxicillin and PPI 3-4 times daily for 14 days in the high-dose amoxicillin-PPI dual therapy, and esomeprazole seems to be superior to other PPIs. EXPERT OPINION The high-dose amoxicillin-PPI dual therapy is currently a promising H. pylori eradication regimen in clinical practice, deserving further verification and discussion. Much more attention should be paid to the influence of CYP2C19 polymorphisms and virulence genotyping on H. pylori eradication, and the homogeneity and objectivity of the comparison among different studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS We compared a high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) with rabeprazole and amoxicillin and compared it with a standard triple therapy (STT) with rabeprazole, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin for 2 weeks for H pylori eradication in treatment naïve patients. METHODS H pylori-positive patients were randomly assigned to either a rabeparzole (Pariet) 20 mg b.i.d., amoxicillin (Ospamox) 1 g b.i.d. and clarithromycin (Klacid) 500 mg b.i.d. for 14 days or rabeprazole (Pariet) 20 mg q.i.d., amoxicillin (Ospamox) 1 g q.i.d. also for 14 days. Eradication was tested for by the C13 -UBT at least 4 weeks after the completion of therapy. RESULTS H pylori was eradicated in 86.2% of patients (81/94) (95% CI: 77.8-91.7) in the STT group compared with 92.8% (90/97) (95% CI: 85.9-96.5) in the HDDT group on ITT analysis. On PP analysis, H pylori was eradicated in 91.0% of patients (81/89) (95% CI: 83.3-95.4) in the STT group compared with 93.8% (90/96) (95% CI: 87.0-97.1) in the HDDT group. Side effects were few although many patients in the STT arm complained of bitter taste. The HDDT arm was well tolerated by patients. CONCLUSIONS The HDDT gave a high eradication rate comparable to the STT for 2 weeks and was a well-tolerated regimen for H pylori eradication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although some studies have reported >90% success with high-dose dual proton pump inhibitor (PPI)-amoxicillin dual therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication, the efficacy of this therapy remains controversial. We aimed to re-evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-dose dual therapy on H. pylori eradication. METHODS We searched PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and EMBASE for randomized clinical trials (RCTs) evaluating the efficacy of high-dose PPI-amoxicillin dual therapy as the rescue therapy on H. pylori eradication. Treatment effect was determined with a fixed-effect model using the inverse variance method and was expressed as risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS Because of significant statistical heterogeneity (χ2 15.98, I2 = 69%) among the six studies that qualified, four RCTs that included 473 patients with H. pylori infection after eradication failure were assessed. The meta-analysis showed that high-dose dual therapy and guideline-recommended rescue therapies achieved similar efficacy (81.3% vs 81.5%, RR 1.00 [95% CI 0.93-1.08], intention-to-treat analysis), compliance (95.3% vs 95.4%, RR 1.00 [95% CI 0.97-1.03]), and side effects (17.9% vs 19.7%, RR 0.88 [95% CI 0.62-1.25]). CONCLUSIONS High-dose PPI-amoxicillin dual therapy is comparable to recommended rescue therapies for H. pylori infection. More researches are needed to determine the efficacy of high-dose dual therapy as a first-line therapy.
