Helicobacter pylori — Current Therapy and Future Therapeutic Strategies

Abstract: H.pylori infection is found to be associated with gastritis, non-ulcer dyspepsia (NUD), duodenal ulcer, gastric ulcer, gastric cancer, gastric lymphoma of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) and even coronary heart disease [28, 29]. It has now been well established that H.pylori is the cause of almost all duodenal ulcers (DU) and chronic benign gastric ulcers (GU) which are not associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) [30].

“…Therefore, access for antimicrobial drugs to the infected site is limited by both the acidic gastric lumen affecting drug stability and mucus gel layer which hinders the attainment of sufficient antibiotic concentrations for bactericidal activity (Lopes et al, 2014;Umamaheshwari et al, 2004). Therefore, a new treatment approach that is also simple to encourage patient compliance aiming to achieve higher eradication rates is urgently needed (Gatta et al, 2013;Siddalingam and Chidambaram, 2014;Vakil and Vaira, 2013). On these assumptions, a stomach-site specific drug delivery system would increase the localized concentration and the residence time of the drugs at the site of action making less variable the gastric emptying time, reducing dosage frequency, and increasing patient compliance.…”

“…However, this latter condition is relevantly affected by inter-individual differences in gastric emptying as well as by the amount and variety of the ingested food. Even with a right selection of drugs, bacterial eradication may fail in up 20-40% of patients owing to antibiotic resistance, insufficient antibiotic concentration reaching the site of infection (under the gastric mucus gel layer), uneven drug distribution in the gastric lumen, short contact time between drug formulation and gastric mucosa, and poor patient compliance due to the complex therapeutic regimen which also produces side effects (Gasparetto et al, 2012;Siddalingam and Chidambaram, 2014;WGO Global Guidelines, 2010). Among these difficulties connected with Hp cure, failure of therapy is mostly associated to antibiotic resistance and patient non-compliance (Graham and Shiotani, 2008).…”

“…(4) Stool antigen detection using rapid qualitative tests is an efficient method that indicates a current infection, the occurrence of a reinfection and monitoring treatment effectiveness, but it has the disadvantage of low reproducibility; the method is acceptable for adult patients. (2,3) The profile of serum antibodies compared to different antigens of the Helicobacter pylori bacterium can be monitored using the (Immunoblot Test). This is a quantitative, non-invasive method allowing the simultaneous study of antibodies against several antigen fractions.…”
