Analysis of Clinical Predictors of Resolution of Sleep Disturbance Related to Frequent Nighttime Heartburn and Acid Regurgitation Symptoms in Individuals Taking Esomeprazole 20 mg or Placebo.

ABSTRACT: Sleep disturbances related to reflux symptoms have a significant impact on the daily lives of affected individuals. These analyses identified clinical factors related to resolution of reflux-related sleep disturbance in subjects treated with esomeprazole 20 mg for 14 days.Data from the first 14 days of 2 similar randomized, double-blind studies were pooled for subjects experiencing frequent heartburn and related sleep disturbances receiving esomeprazole 20 mg (n = 357) or placebo (n = 346). A stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed with pooled and individual study data to evaluate relationships between clinical factors [treatment (esomeprazole vs. placebo), run-in sleep disturbance frequency, occurrence (yes/no) of 24-h, daytime, and nighttime heartburn (yes: ?1 episode in 14-day treatment period)] and complete sleep disturbance resolution (no disturbances for 7 consecutive days).Absence of daytime (p = 0.0018) or nighttime (p < 0.0001) heartburn during treatment was a significant predictor of complete sleep disturbance resolution at 14 days for the total population, while higher run-in sleep disturbance frequency (p < 0.0001) was associated with a lower likelihood of resolution. Esomeprazole treatment was an independent significant predictor of improvement across all endpoints (p < 0.0001). A significant treatment by run-in sleep disturbance interaction was observed for complete resolution (p = 0.0231), indicating greater therapeutic benefit with esomeprazole in subgroups with higher run-in symptom frequency.Lower run-in sleep disturbance frequency, no occurrence of daytime or nighttime heartburn during therapy, and esomeprazole treatment predicted complete reflux-related sleep disturbance resolution. The magnitude of therapeutic benefit for esomeprazole 20 mg over placebo increased with increasing baseline sleep disturbance.

Project description:IntroductionReflux symptoms are frequently associated with esophageal acid exposure. However, other potential causes unrelated to acid secretion are possible, and the relationship between acid control and symptomatic improvement remains unclear. This study investigated the correlation between individual intragastric pH control and heartburn relief among subjects with frequent heartburn who are likely to self-treat with over-the-counter (OTC) medications. We hypothesized that improved acid control would provide greater symptomatic improvement among individuals representative of an OTC population.MethodsThis phase 4, single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted in subjects without diagnosed gastroesophageal reflux disease or other gastrointestinal conditions who were experiencing frequent heartburn (≥ 3 episodes/week; ≥ 2 nighttime episodes/week over past 30 days) that was responsive to treatment. Subjects entered a 7-day run-in phase, received placebo BID (before breakfast and dinner), and completed symptom diaries. During the treatment phase, subjects received esomeprazole 20 mg BID, esomeprazole 20 mg then placebo, or placebo BID. Subjects underwent 24-h intragastric pH monitoring at baseline and day 14 and completed daily symptom diaries.ResultsIn the per-protocol population (n = 39), mean (SD) change from baseline in percentage of time with intragastric pH > 4 was 58.7% (± 26.4%) versus 41.0% (± 30.4%) for those who did and did not achieve 24-h heartburn relief. Significant correlations were observed between change in percentage of time with intragastric pH > 4 and 24-h heartburn relief (OR 1.028; 95% CI 1.001, 1.055; P = 0.0442) and complete resolution (OR 1.034; 95% CI 1.003, 1.065; P = 0.0301).ConclusionsIndividuals with greater improvements in duration of intragastric acid suppression had an increased likelihood of achieving heartburn relief and resolution. These results indicate that individuals not adequately controlling their intragastric pH may require an escalation in dose of their acid-suppressive therapy, assessment with 24-h pH monitoring, or a change in treatment regimen to address non-reflux-related etiologies of their heartburn.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02708355.FundingPfizer Consumer Healthcare, Madison, NJ, USA.

Project description:BackgroundEsomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), is widely used to treat acid-related disorders, but it has short plasma half-life which can cause insufficient gastric acid suppression, such as nocturnal acid breakthrough. A new dual delayed-release (DR) formulation of esomeprazole (Esomezol DR), was developed to extend the duration of gastric acid suppression.PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PKs) and pharmacodynamics (PDs) of esomeprazole for the DR formulation compared to a conventional enteric-coated (EC) formulation (Nexium) in healthy male subjects.MethodsTwo randomized, open-label, multiple-dose, two-way crossover studies with esomeprazole 20 mg and 40 mg were conducted. Subjects received the DR formulation or the EC formulation once daily for 7 days in each period with a 7-day washout. Serial blood samples were collected up to 24 hours after the 1st dose, and 24-hour intragastric pH was continuously monitored before the 1st dose as baseline and after the 1st and the 7th dose.ResultsIn 20 mg and 40 mg dose groups, 38 and 44 subjects completed the study, respectively. The DR formulation exhibited the dual-release pattern of esomeprazole, resulting in more sustained plasma concentration-time profiles compared to the EC formulation. The systemic exposure of esomeprazole for the DR formulation was comparable to that for the EC formulation, showing the similar area under the plasma concentration-time curve. The 24-hour gastric acid suppression was also similar between the two formulations, while the inhibition during night-time (22:00-06:00) showed a better tendency in the DR formulation.ConclusionThe sustained exposure of esomeprazole in the DR formulation led to well-maintained and higher acid inhibition compared to the EC formulation, especially during the night-time. These results suggest that the DR formulation can be an alternative formulation to the conventional EC formulation, expecting the potential of relieving nocturnal acid-related symptoms.
