Abstract
Background
The optimal treatment regimen or the duration of treatment for an endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)-induced gastric ulcer has not been established. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of novel proton-pump inhibitor, ilaprazole, for the treatment of ESD-induced gastric ulcer.
Methods
This was a prospective, open-label, randomized multicenter study. Between June 2015 and March 2018, a total of 176 patients (178 lesions) who underwent ESD for a gastric neoplasm were randomly allocated to receive the oral proton-pump inhibitor ilaprazole 20 mg or rabeprazole 20 mg daily for 8 weeks. The primary outcome was the ulcer healing rate at 4 and 8 weeks.
Results
A total of 155 (157 lesions) and 154 patients (156 lesions) were included in the modified intention-to-treat (mITT) and per-protocol analyses, respectively. There was no significant difference in the ulcer healing rate (ilaprazole vs. rabeprazole, 97.4% vs. 97.0 p = 0.78 at 4 weeks, 100% vs. 100%, p = 0.95 at 8 weeks in the mITT analysis) or stage of ulcer (scar stage, 25.6% vs. 17.7%, p = 0.25 at 4 weeks, 92.3% vs. 88.6%, p = 0.59 at 8 weeks in the mITT analysis) between the treatment groups. The quality of ulcer healing was not significantly different between the two groups. No independent predictive factor for higher-quality ulcer healing was found in the multivariate analysis.
Conclusions
According to this trial, ilaprazole and rabeprazole showed no significant difference in the healing of artificial gastric ulcers. Most of the ulcers achieved complete healing within 4–8 weeks. Trial registration: ClinicalTrial.gov NCT02638584.
