    Notes: BACKGROUND: Omeprazole with amoxycillin has been used to treat Helicobacter pylori infection. It was speculated that omeprazole- induced hypoacidity enhances the antibacterial activity of amoxycillin. Limited information exists about intragastric pH and bioavailability of amoxycillin during combination therapy. No data are available about possible effects of the antibiotic on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of omeprazole. METHODS: The study was performed in a three-way cross-over double-blind design. After a run-in period on placebo with a baseline intragastric pH-metry, 24 H. pylori-positive healthy subjects were randomly dosed with amoxycillin 750 mg b.d. + placebo, amoxycillin 750 mg b.d. + omeprazole 40 mg b.d. and omeprazole 40 mg b.d. + placebo for 5 days. On the last day of each regimen intragastric pH-metries were performed, and blood samples taken for omeprazole and amoxycillin serum profiles. RESULTS: Amoxycillin monotherapy had no acid-inhibiting effect. Median pH during combined dosing was significantly lower, compared to omeprazole monotherapy (P 〈 0.01). Mean serum concentrations of omeprazole and amoxycillin given alone or in combination were not different. CONCLUSIONS: High-dose omeprazole does not alter the pharmacokinetics of amoxycillin. The significantly lower intragastric pH during combination therapy might be due to the H. pylori-suppressive effect of this treatment.

    Notes: Lansoprazole (AG 1749) is a novel substituted benzimidazole which inhibits gastric acid secretion by blocking H+, K+-ATPase. This randomized, double-blind multicentre trial studied the dose–response relationship of lansoprazole on ulcer healing and compared it with ranitidine in 314 out-patients with endoscopically assessed, symptomatic duodenal ulcer. Cumulative healing rates with Lansoprazole 7.5, 15, and 30 mg o.m. were 48, 59, and 74% at 2 weeks and 75, 84, and 95 % at 4 weeks, respectively (intention-to-treat); the difference of the healing rates between 7.5 and 30 mg groups was significant (P 〈 0.001).Corresponding healing rates for 300 mg ranitidine nocte were 51 and 89 %. Pain relief was similar in all treatment groups. Lansoprazole was well tolerated. During a follow-up of 6 months relapse rates after lansoprazole 7.5, 15, and 30 mg were 21, 29, and 22%, respectively; the relapse rate after ranitidine 300 mg was 20%. In conclusion, lansoprazole provides faster healing of duodenal ulcer than ranitidine and a similar relapse pattern. For further trials in peptic ulcer disease a daily dose of lansoprazole 30 mg o.m. is recommended.

    Notes: BACKGROUND: Combination therapy using omeprazole and amoxycillin can cure Helicobacter pylori infection, but data are controversial concerning the efficacy of this regimen. The present study investigated varying doses of omeprazole combined with a standard amoxycillin dose on duodenal ulcer healing and eradication of H. pylori, in order to find an optimal dose regimen. METHODS: H. pylori-positive out-patients (n = 231) with duodenal ulcers were treated randomly and double-blind with either omeprazole 20, 40 or 80 mg b.d. plus amoxycillin 1 g b.d. for 14 days. Patients with an unhealed ulcer after this therapy took omeprazole 20 mg o.m. for another month. RESULTS: After 2 weeks, ulcer healing rates in the three treatment groups were not statistically different (85, 82 and 93%, respectively). Treatment with omeprazole 80 mg b.d. was significantly better in curing H. pylori infection (eradication rate 69%) than treatment with omeprazole 20 and 40 mg b.d. (47 and 53%). CONCLUSIONS: Combination of either omeprazole 20 or 40 mg b.d. plus amoxycillin 1 g b.d., is not sufficiently effective to be recommended as an anti-H. pylori therapy. Omeprazole 80 mg b.d. combined with amoxycillin is more efficient and well tolerated, but better treatment options now exist to cure H. pylori infection.

    Notes: The combination of a histamine H2-receptor antagonist and a muscarinic receptor antagonist has been reported to result in greater suppression of intragastric acidity than either agent alone. The present randomized, double-blind, multicentre trial compared the effects of the oral combination of 150 mg ranitidine b.d. plus 50 mg pirenzepine b.d. with 150 mg ranitidine b.d. plus placebo pirenzepine b.d. in the treatment of patients with reflux oesophagitis. All 157 patients had symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux with endoscopically confirmed oesophageal erosions (Savary and Miller grades I-III). After four weeks of treatment, healing rates were 32/75 (43%) in the combined treatment group and 34/76 (45%) in the group receiving ranitidine alone. After eight weeks, the cumulative healing rates had increased to 48/72 (67%) and 51/75 (68%), respectively. More patients receiving ranitidine plus pirenzepine had complete relief of day- and night-time heartburn after four weeks compared with those receiving ranitidine alone (day: 59% vs. 38%, P= 0.02; night: 69% vs. 52%, P= 0.04). After eight weeks, symptom relief was comparable in both groups. Clinical adverse effects were reported by nine patients receiving ranitidine and by 19 patients receiving the combination. It is concluded that combining ranitidine with pirenzepine does not aid the healing of reflux oesophagitis but does improve symptom relief at four weeks.

    Notes: Summary Nine healthy, male subjects received controlled-rate i.v. infusions of a new formulation of pirenzepine to produce constant plasma levels of 40 ng/ml and 105 ng/ml. They also received stepped infusions resulting in plasma levels of 20, 40, 80 and 40 ng/ml for defined periods. Peptone-stimulated gastric acid and volume secretion and near point vision decreased dose dependently, whereas gastric acidity was unchanged. There was a significant correlation between inhibition of gastric acid secretion and the pirenzepine concentration in plasma and in gastric juice. During the stepped i.v. infusion, changes in near point vision were closely related to the plasma drug concentration. Antimuscarinic side-effects occurred more frequently when the plasma drug level was high. Overall, there was a close relationship between the plasma concentrations and the effects and side-effects of pirenzepine. Its gastric inhibitory action was characterized only by a reduction in gastric volume secretion. Increasing plasma concentrations during the first days of treatment may be essential for its efficacy as an antiulcer drug.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei 4 Patienten mit aktiver Akromegalie, 2 Patienten mit einem Prolaktin-produzierenden Hypophysentumor und einer Patientin mit einem Insulinom wurde an 2 aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen ein oraler Glucosetoleranztest (OGTT) durchgeführt. Während des 2. OGTT wurden 30 min vor Beginn der Glucosebelastung 250 µg Somatostatin als Bolus injiziert, gefolgt von einer Somatostatin-Infusion (500 µg) über 2 1/2 Std. Die durch den Wachstumshormon-bzw. Prolaktin-induzierten Insulinantagonismus bedingte pathologische Glucosebelastung konnte durch Somatostatin nicht normalisiert werden; lediglich das Blutzucker-Maximum verschob sich von 1 auf 2 1/2 Std nach Glucosegabe. Die Insulin- und Wachstumshormonspiegel wurden durch Somatostatin supprimiert, die Prolaktinspiegel hingegen verhielten sich variabel. Der bei allen Patienten beobachtete glucoseinduzierte Anstieg des Serum-Gastrins wurde in 4 Fällen durch Somatostatin gehemmt. Diese Befunde zeigen, daß die pathologische Glucosetoleranz bei Insulinantagonismus im Gegensatz zu der bei Insulinmangel durch Somatostatin nicht wesentlich beeinflußt werden kann.
    Notes: Summary Oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) were performed for two subsequent days in 4 patients with active acromegaly, 2 patients with prolactin-producing pituitary adenomas and one insulinoma patient. Thirty minutes before the second OGTT 250 µg of somatostatin were injected intravenously as a bolus followed by a somatostatin infusion (500 µg) over 2 1/2 hours. The OGTTs were pathologic due to the hGH- and hPRL-induced insulin antagonism; they could not be normalized or improved by somatostatin. Only the peak of the blood sugar curve was shifted from one to two and a half hours after glucose administration; insulin and hGH levels were regularly suppressed after somatostatin whereas hPRL remained unchanged in most instances. Gastrin levels increased in all patients during the OGTT, the increase was suppressed in 4 patients. These findings show that the pathologic glucose tolerance due to insulin antagonism could not be improved by somatostatin in contrast to the deteriorated glucose tolerance in insulinopenic states.
