Abstract

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is a global issue. Its eradication in affected individuals is important to prevent several further complications that may occur if left untreated. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) serve an important role in the eradication regimens of H. pylori. PPIs are metabolized primarily through the CYP2C19 enzyme in the liver. Inter‑individual variation in the response to eradication treatment may partly be due to variations in the metabolism of PPIs. The aim of this study was to determine whether there was any association between CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms and the response to eradication therapy amongst Jordanians infected with H. pylori receiving lansoprazole‑based regimens. The present study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of The University of Jordan Hospital. A total of 141 patients infected with H. pylori were genotyped for the polymorphisms CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17 using the PCR‑restriction fragment length polymorphism assay method. Patients received lansoprazole‑based triple or sequential therapy. The assessment of eradication was performed using either a H. pylori stool antigen test or from feedback from patients regarding their improvement. Eradication rates were 84.6% and 64.5% in the intermediate‑metabolizer and extensive‑metabolizer group, respectively. This difference was not statistically significant. Moreover, no significant association was found between the carriers of the CYP2C19*17 polymorphism and the response to eradication therapy. These findings suggest that there was no significant association between the CYP2C19 genotype and the response to eradication therapy amongst Jordanians infected with H. pylori.
