ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background
In the initial study of hybrid therapy, no significant factors related to treatment failure were found; however, the cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) polymorphism was not analyzed. Only one study addressed the influence of CYP2C19 by using hybrid therapy as a first-line treatment for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication.
Research objectives
The aims of this study were to investigate the efficacy of hybrid therapy as a first-line treatment for H. pylori eradication, and to evaluate the independent predictors associated with eradication efficacy, including CYP2C19, the interleukin (IL)-1β-511 polymorphism, and antibiotic resistance.
Research methods
About 88 H. pylori-infected patients were recruited to receive 14-d of hybrid therapy. Endoscopies or 13C-urea tests were performed to determine the results of H. pylori eradication therapy. To investigate the impact on treatment effect, the genotypes of CYP2C19 and IL-1β were analyzed.
Research results
The total eradication rate of H. pylori was 92.94%. The rates of H. pylori eradiation were 89.19% in extensive metabolizers (EM) and 95.83% in non-EM, according to the CYP2C19 genotypes. Both the genotypes of CYP2C19 and IL-1β had no significant influence on the eradication rates of H. pylori.
Research conclusions
The CYP2C19 and IL-1β polymorphisms are not significantly independent factors on rabeprazole-based hybrid therapy for H. pylori eradication.
Research perspectives
The limitation of this study was that the number of patients may be too small to identify the significant factors predicting eradication failure. In addition, the findings suggest that rabeprazole may be used as a priority in EMs of CYP2C19 to maintain the eradication rate of H. pylori.
