In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the feasibility and performance of real-time PCR (qPCR) performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) gastric biopsies to detect Helicobacter pylori infection and clarithromycin resistance. The study will assess whether qPCR performed on tissue samples routinely collected for histological examination can reliably identify H. pylori and mutations associated with clarithromycin resistance. Results will be compared with histology, immunohistochemistry, and bacteriological PCR. The study will also assess the potential impact of qPCR results on treatment decisions and the medical-economic impact of this diagnostic strategy.This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the feasibility and performance of real-time PCR (qPCR) performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) gastric biopsies to detect Helicobacter pylori i
