Introduction

The infection by H. pylori can be successfully treated and eradicated if the recommendations from consensus documents are followed correctly. It is essential to continuously assess the applicability of these recommendations to confirm what happens in clinical practice.

Aims & Methods

Multicentre, prospective registry evaluating the decisions and outcomes of Helicobacter pylori management by European gastroenterologists. Data were registered at AEG-REDCap e-CRF until December 2023. Modified intention-to-treat (mITT) and time trend analyses were performed.

Results

Overall, 58,334 (82%) were first-line empirical prescriptions. The total number of different therapeutic regimens prescribed exceeded 100. Triple therapy prescriptions decreased from approximately 60% during 2013/15 to 30% in 2023; likewise, non-bismuth concomitant therapy use decreased from 21% in 2013/15 to 15% in 2021/23, while three-in-one single-capsuleincreased from 0.3% in 2013/2015 to 20% in 2021/23. An increase in the average duration of treatments (from 9.8 days to 12.4 days) in 2013-2023 was identified, as well as in the use of standard/high-dose of PPIs (increasing from 36% to 60%) in 2013-2023. There was a ≈10% overall improvement in first-line mITT overall effectiveness from 86% to 94% in 11 years of evolution, both globally and in each geographic region (Table).

Conclusion

European gastroenterological practice is constantly adapting to the newest published evidence and recommendations (reducing the use of triple therapies and increasing both the duration of treatment and the dose of PPIs), with a subsequent progressive improvement in overall effectiveness.
