Background and aims: Efficacy with substitution of tetracycline with amoxicillin, an antibiotics having a very low resistance rate and a high tolerability, in bismuth quadruple therapy (BQT) have not been studied in Vietnam. Our study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of modified BQT vs. standard BQT for first-line Helicobacter pylori eradication. Patients and methods: This is a randomized, prospective study. 120 patients with H.pylori positive-chronic gastritis were randomly divided into two groups. The RBMA group containing rabeprazole 20 mg, bismuth subsalicylic 524mg, metronidazole 500mg, amoxicillin 1000mg, all 2 times a day, for 14 days. The RBMT group received rabeprazole, bismuth subsalicylic, metronidazole and tetracycline. Evaluation for compliance and drug-related side effects were evaluated at the end of two weeks. 4-6 weeks after the end of treatment, the H.pylori eradication rate was determined by the C13urease breath test. Results: Eradication rate was not statistically significative different between the RBMA and the RBMT: 91.2%; 95% confidence interval, 78.2% - 96.7%) vs. 90%; 95% CI, 81.6% - 96.3%) by per-protocol analysis (p = 0.42) and 86.7% (95%CI, 75.84% - 93.09%) vs. 75% (95%CI, 62.1% - 85.3%) by intention-to-treat analysis (ITT, p = 0.06). Adverse effects were significant higher in the RBMT group than in the RBMA group (48.3% vs. 26.7%; p = 0.071) and rate of good compliance was significantly higher in RBMA group than in RBMT group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The modified BQT including rabeprazole, bismuth, metronidazole and amoxicillin achieved a fairly high rate of H.pylori infection eradication with a higher compliance and lower rate of adverse effects compared to the BQT in patients with chronic gastritis. Further studies need to conduct to confirm this new regimens as a first-line therapy in our country. Key words: Modified bismuth quadruple therapy, BQT, Helicobacter pylori eradication

Background There has been resurgence in the use of bismuth quadruple therapy (proton pump inhibitor, bismuth, tetracycline and metronidazole) for treating Helicobacter pylori infection thanks to a three-in-one single-capsule formulation. Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the single-capsule bismuth quadruple therapy. Methods Data were collected in a multicentre, prospective registry of the clinical practice of gastroenterologists on the management of H. pylori infection, where patients were registered at the Asociación Española de Gastroenterología REDCap database on an electronic case report form until January 2020. Effectiveness by modified intention-to-treat and per-protocol as well as multivariable analysis were performed. Independent factors evaluated were: age, gender, indication, compliance, proton pump inhibitor dose and treatment line. Results Finally, 2100 patients were prescribed single-capsule bismuth quadruple therapy following the technical sheet (i.e. three capsules every 6 hours for 10 days). The majority of these patients were naive (64%), with an average age of 50 years, 64% women and 16% with peptic ulcer. An overall modified intention-to-treat effectiveness of 92% was achieved. Eradication was over 90% in first-line treatment (95% modified intention-to-treat, n = 1166), and this was maintained as a rescue therapy, both in second (89% modified intention-to-treat, n = 375) and subsequent lines of therapy (third to sixth line: 92% modified intention-to-treat, n = 236). Compliance was the factor most closely associated with treatment effectiveness. Adverse events were generally mild to moderate, and 3% of patients reported a severe adverse event, leading to discontinuation of treatment in 1.7% of cases. Conclusions Single-capsule bismuth quadruple therapy achieved H. pylori eradication in approximately 90% of patients in real-world clinical practice, both as a first-line and rescue treatment, with good compliance and a favourable safety profile.
