Brief Summary

Current guidelines have recommended classical bismuth-containing quadruple therapy including proton-pump inhibitor, bismuth, tetracycline, metronidazole as the empirical rescue therapy. However, tetracycline is clinically unavailable in China and the high frequency of adverse events of bismuth quadruple therapy often result in poor compliance, which limited the applicability of this recommendation. We previously showed that the efficacy of bismuth-containing quadruple therapy with minocycline and metronidazole was not inferior to classical bismuth quadruple therapy for refractory H. pylori infection, though also accompanied with high occurrence of adverse events.This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of four different regimens with minocycline and metronidazole compared to classical bismuth quadruple therapy for H. pylori rescue treatment in a real-world setting.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Helicobacter pylori eradication rateSix weeks after completion of therapy

Six weeks after completion of therapy, H. pylori eradication was assessed by ¹³C-urea breath test. Eradication was defined as negative result from urea breath test (\<4‰) (4‰ as the cutoff value).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of adverse effectsWithin six weeks after completion of therapy

The subjects were asked to grade the severity of adverse events according to their influence on daily activities, experienced as "mild" (transient and well tolerated), "moderate" (causing discomfort and partially interfering with daily activities), or "severe" (causing considerable interference with daily activities)

Compliance rateWithin six weeks after completion of therapy

Compliance was defined as poor when they had taken less than 80% of the total medication
