Condition(s) targeted: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Intervention: Esomeprazole 40mg (Drug); Pantoprazole 40mg (Drug); Lansoprazole 30mg (Drug)

Phase: Phase 4

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: AstraZeneca

Summary

This study will be conducted in order to determine safety and efficacy esomeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole control stomach acid by measuring the stomach acid in men and women of Hispanic origin who have GERD.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Comparative 3-Way Crossover Study of 24-Hour Intragastric pH Profile of Once Daily Oral Administration of Esomeprazole 40 mg, Lansoprazole 30 mg, and Pantoprazole 40 mg at Steady State in Hispanic Patients With Symptomatic GERD

Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Dose Comparison, Crossover Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study

Primary outcome: To compare the pharmacodynamic efficacy in controlling intragastric pH following administration of esomeprazole 40 mg, lansoprazole 30 mg, and pantoprazole 40 mg taken orally, once daily in Hispanic patients with symptomatic GERD.

Secondary outcome:

Compare nocturnal intragastric pH in Hispanic patients with GERD

Compare integrated acidity (IGA) using 24-hour monitoring period among Hispanic patients with GERD

Assess the short-term safety and tolerability of PPIs being studied in Hispanic patients
