The participant is receiving colchicine.

The participant is a study site employee, an immediate family member, or is in a dependent relationship with a study site employee who is involved in conduct of this study (e.g., spouse, parent, child, sibling) or who may have consented under duress.
The participant has cutaneous lupus erythematosus or systemic lupus erythematosus.
The participant has had clinically significant upper or lower gastrointestinal bleeding within 4 weeks prior to randomization.
The participant has Zollinger-Ellison syndrome or other gastric acid hypersecretory conditions.
The participant has a history of hypersensitivity or allergies to vonoprazan (including the formulation excipients: D-mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, fumaric acid, croscarmellose sodium, magnesium stearate, hypromellose, macrogol 8000, titanium oxide, red or yellow ferric oxide), PPIs, amoxicillin and/or clarithromycin, or any excipients used in the 13C-UBT: mannitol, citric acid or aspartame. Skin testing may be performed according to local standard practice to confirm hypersensitivity.
The participant has a history of alcohol abuse, illegal drug use, or drug addiction within the 12 months prior to screening, or who regularly consume >21 units of alcohol (1 unit = 12 oz/300 mL beer, 1.5 oz/25 mL hard liquor/spirits, or 5 oz/100 mL wine) per week based on self-report. Participants must have a negative urine drug screen for cannabinoids/ tetrahydrocannabinol and non-prescribed medications at screening.
The participant is taking any excluded medications or treatments listed in the protocol.
If female, the participant is pregnant, lactating, or intending to become pregnant before, during, or within 4 weeks after participating in this study; or intending to donate ova during such time period.
The participant has a history or clinical manifestations of significant central nervous system, cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, metabolic, other gastrointestinal, urological, endocrine or hematological disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, would confound the study results or compromise participants safety.
The participant requires hospitalization or has surgery scheduled during the course of the study or has undergone major surgical procedures within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit.
The participant has a history of malignancy (including MALToma) or has been treated for malignancy within 5 years prior to the start of the Screening Period (Visit 1) (the participant may be included in the study if he/she has cured cutaneous basal cell carcinoma or cervical carcinoma in situ).

2. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >2 × the upper limit of normal (ULN) or total bilirubin >2 × ULN.
