Phage Therapy: Promising For H.pylori Infection
نویسنده
چکیده
Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) is a widely distributed human pathogen with high prevalence in human population. Many researches showed H.pylori infection is closely related with chronic gastritis, ganstric duodenal ulcer, mucosa associated diseases such as lymphoma and gastric cancer [1,2]. It has been classified as the class I carcinogen in 1994 by the World Health Organization and the International Agency for Research on Cancer consensus group [3]. The prevalence in the human population is 50-80%, with an increasing rate of 1-2% annually. About 12 million new cases emerged every year. H.pylori infection has become an extrusive public problem.

Background: The rate of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) eradication in dyspeptic patients using bismuth- based triple therapy is low due to bacterial that are resistant to antibiotics. The results of recent studies regarding levofloxacin have been encouraging, but the high cost of treatment prevents its routine administration. We, therefore, performed the present double-blind clinical trial to c...
