Personalized Therapy in H. pylori Eradication

Helicobacter pylori

Abstract

Eradication of H. pylori is generally achieved by the administration of antibiotics under acid inhibition. The clinical efficacy of proton pump inhibitors, which inhibit gastric acid secretion, differs depending on the activity of metabolizing enzymes. Thus, drugs which are rapidly metabolized will have a decreased therapeutic effect and may require increased doses. Antibiotic resistance of H. pylori is also critical, and antibiotic drugs must be selected according to antibiotic resistance. Furthermore, antibiotics have their own characteristics, and some need to be administrated three or four times a day rather than uniformly twice a day. Standard therapy might not be indicated for certain patients, such as those with penicillin allergy and/or deterioration of renal function and receiving dialysis for renal failure. Accordingly, it may be necessary to provide personalized therapy based on the characteristics of each case.
