Consensus on eradication of Helicobacter pylori and prevention and control of gastric cancer in China (2019, Shanghai)

Abstract: Background and Aim China is a country with high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, which in turn is closely related to the occurrence of gastric cancer. Therefore, the risks of H. pylori infection and gastric cancer are highly overlapping, and the prevention and treatment of H. pylori infection are necessary to prevent gastric cancer. Methods Based on evidence‐based medicine and the Delphi method, the National Clinical Medical Research Center for Digestive Disease along with the National … Show more

“…effective strategy in high-risk areas. 28 The main reason for economic gains of H. pylori eradication therapy was that it reduced the incidence of gastric cancer, thereby reducing the total costs of gastric cancer. Nevertheless, in addition to the treatment costs, multiple factors including drug availability, and antibiotic resistance needs to be taken into consideration when carrying out a screen-and-treat program for H. pylori in the whole country, especially in countries with large populations and limited medical resources.…”

“…Patients were eligible if they had a confirmed H. pylori infection based on the 13 C-urea breath test (UBT). The following exclusion criteria were used: (1) patients who had received H. pylori eradication treatment more than once; (2) patients who had been treated with antibiotics, colloidal bismuth pectin, H 2 receptor inhibitors, or PPIs within the previous 4 weeks; (3) patients with a history of fluoroquinolone drug treatment, particularly levofloxacin; (4) patients with serious diseases, such as severe cardiopulmonary and liver dysfunction; and (5) patients with an allergy to the study drugs. Each patient provided written informed consent, and the study protocol was approved by the ethics committee of each center.…”

“…H. pylori infection is associated with risks of peptic ulcer, chronic gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, and gastric cancer [2]. Therefore, consensus reports have proposed that H. pylori eradication treatment is necessary to prevent these diseases [2,3], particularly among patients who have a family history of gastric cancer in first-degree relatives [4]. Unfortunately, the eradication rates of standard therapy have decreased to alarmingly low levels due to increasing levels of antibiotic resistance; eradication is particularly difficult when the clarithromycin resistance rate is greater than 15% in the local region [5,6].…”

“…In recent decades, the urea breath test has been widely used to detect H. pylori infection not only in specialized hospitals but also in physical examination centers and community hospitals in China. This has led to large numbers of asymptomatic patients being referred to specialized clinics for treatment[ 10 ].…”
