Revision as of 17:48, 18 June 2013
Use of this site is subject to you reading and agreeing with the terms set forth in the disclaimer.
Is there a regimen missing from this list? Would you like to share a different dosage/schedule or an additional reference for a regimen? Have you noticed an error? Do you have an idea that will help the site grow to better meet your needs and the needs of many others? You are invited to contribute to the site.
Untreated
Note: Untreated in this context implies chemotherapy-naive. Some patients in the following studies, especially those with gastric MALT, received H. pylori eradication therapy or radiation prior to chemotherapy.
