Vonoprazan Alone vs With Itopride for Functional Dyspepsia: The VIVA Trial

Официальное название

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Vonoprazan Monotherapy Versus Vonoprazan-Itopride Combination Therapy in Functional Dyspepsia (VIVA Trial)

Обзор

The VIVA trial is a 12-week, randomized, interventional study comparing vonoprazan monotherapy versus vonoprazan plus itopride combination therapy in adults with functional dyspepsia (FD). FD is a common digestive disorder causing upper stomach discomfort, fullness after meals, and early satiety. The study aims to determine if adding itopride, a prokinetic that improves stomach emptying, to vonoprazan, a strong acid-suppressing drug, provides better symptom relief than vonoprazan alone. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either treatment, and their symptoms, quality of life, and safety outcomes will be monitored throughout the study. The trial will help guide the best management strategy for FD by targeting both acid-related and motility-related symptoms.

Подробное описание

Methodology

Study Design:- The design compares vonoprazan 20mg monotherapy against vonoprazan 20mg + itopride 50mg (TID) combination therapy in a 1:1 allocation ratio. The total trial duration per participant is 12 weeks, consisting of a treatment period with regular follow-up assessments. The study's schematic is as follows:

* Patients with dyspeptic symptoms will be screened for eligibility. This includes obtaining informed consent, recording medical history, confirming FD diagnosis (including verification of a normal endoscopy result and H. pylori status), and a washout from disallowed medications. Baseline symptom assessments and lab tests will be done at the end of this phase. * Randomization (Baseline) Visit: Eligible participants are randomly assigned to one of two treatment arms (described below) after baseline evaluations. Baseline symptom scores using Post prandial distress syndrome. * Assessment and follow up: Participants take the assigned study medications for 12 weeks. Follow-up telephone calls or visits are scheduled at regular intervals Week 4, Week 8 and physical visit at 12 weeks for monitoring and assessment.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Vonoprazan plus Itopride combination
  Participants will receive vonoprazan 20 mg orally once daily (preferably in the morning) for 12 weeks, plus itopride 50 mg orally thrice daily before meals for 12 weeks. The vonoprazan dose of 20 mg daily is chosen as it is the standard dose shown to provide potent acid suppression
• Препарат Vonoprazan
  Participants will receive vonoprazan 20 mg orally once daily for 12 weeks
