- Conditions
- Patients With Typical Symptoms of GERD (GERD Q >= 8)
- Registration Number
- NCT02606851
- Lead Sponsor
- AstraZeneca
- Brief Summary
China Survey of Proton Pump Inhibitor Empirical Treatment in Management of Outpatients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
- Detailed Description
To estimate the overall responder rate after 4 weeks of Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment This will be a multicenter prospective observational study carried out in China. Investigator will collect data in a pre-specified Case Report Form from the outpatient. Informed consents will be needed. Investigator will provide patient diary card to each patient for them to note down the symptom frequency every day. Main data from each outpatient will include demographics, Gerd Q, symptom frequency and Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment. Data from each outpatient will be collected on the screening day, 2 weeks and 4 weeks.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The overall responder rate After 4 weeks of Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment The overall responder rate after 4 weeks of Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment. Responder is defined as heartburn/regurgitation frequency ≤1 days during 7 days before evaluation visit, assessed using Gerd Q questionnaire at each post-baseline visit.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The overall responder rate After 2 weeks of Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment The overall responder rate after 2 weeks of Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment
The proportion of patients in each Gerd Q cut-off range at each visit At each visit (baseline, 2 weeks and 4 weeks) The proportion of patients in each Gerd Q cut-off range at each visit (Gerd Q range: ≤2; 3-7; 8-10; 11-18)
The responder rate of different Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment After 2 and 4 weeks of different PPIs empirical treatment The responder rate respectively after 2 and 4 weeks of different Proton Pump Inhibitor empirical treatment
The median time to response overall and for different Proton Pump Inhibitor, respectively During 4 weeks of whole study The median time to response (heartburn/regurgitation frequency ≤1 days during last 7 days assessed using patient's diary card) overall and for different Proton Pump Inhibitor, respectively
