Rhesus monkeys raised in colonies tend to become naturally infected byHelicobacter pyloriearly in life. Earlier attempts to cureH. pyloriinfection with a 10-day triple therapy (metronidazole, amoxicillin, and peptobismol) were only partially (60%) successful, probably because of preexisting metronidazole resistance. This study was carried out to determine the efficacy of an alternative clarithromycin-omeprazole-based therapy for curingH. pyloriinfection in Rhesus mon-keys (Macaca mulatta), and to examine histologic and serologic correlates of curing. Five monkeys were endoscoped under ketamine anesthesia. Histology and culture of gastric biopsies and serologic tests demonstrated that they wereH. pylori-positive. Two animals had not received prior anti-H. pyloritreatment, while three other animals had failed triple therapy and carried metronidazole-resistantH. pyloristrains. Quadruple therapy with omeprazole, clarithromycin, amoxicillin, and bismuth subsalicylate was given for 10 days to these five animals. All five animals were cured of the infection, and remainedH. pylori-free, based on histology and culture at regular intervals for the 5 months post-therapy during which they were followed. Gastritis scores and anti-H. pyloriIgG levels decreased in each animal during this period to levels characteristic of uninfected animals. These results indicate that an omeprazole-clarithromycin-based regimen can cureH. pyloriinfection in Rhesus monkeys, with resolution of abnormal histology and serologic responses. They suggest that this preclinical animal model is useful for testing new anti-H. pyloritherapies.
