Over the past ten years there have been major advances in the physician's ability to treat patients with peptic ulcer disease. Cimetidine continues to be the standard against which newer therapies are generally compared, although ranitidine is equally effective for short-term therapy, more effective for maintenance therapy, and has a superior safety profile. Famotidine is an even more potent H2 receptor antagonist, and initial clinical studies are promising. The initial concern for the development of gastric carcinoid lesions in rodents, maintained for long periods on high doses of omeprazole, defused the initial enthusiasm for this hydrogen-potassium ATPase "proton pump" inhibitor, but recent studies continue to show a marked efficacy of this agent for the short-term care of patients with gastric or duodenal ulcers and for the management of patients with the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Sulcrate continues to enjoy wide popularity for acute and chronic care of acid peptic disorders because of its local action and minimal adverse effects. Pirenzepine is effective in achieving and maintaining healing, but prevalence of anticholinergic side-effects has hampered enthusiasm for its widespread use. The 2 forerunners in the prostaglandin analogues arena, misoprostol and enprostil, are antisecretory agents when given in sufficiently high doses. These orally administered prostaglandins have a favourable safety profile, and their only adverse effect is that of the development of transient mild diarrhea. Finally, while antacids continue to be used in large amounts because of their over-the-counter availability, their clinical usefulness is limited by their unpalatable taste and the relatively large amounts usually required to achieve ulcer healing.

The H+, K(+)-ATPase inhibitor omeprazole has been made available on a compassionate basis for patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome considered resistant to, or with side-effects on, histamine H2-receptor antagonists. By December 1985, the first 80 patients, from 46 centres in 11 countries, had been treated for periods of 2 days to 4 years. Basal acid output was decreased to the desired level of less than 10 mmol.hour-1, and symptoms were rapidly relieved. Acid secretion and laboratory variables were checked regularly and endoscopic examinations made at intervals. Dosage was adjusted primarily on the basis of basal acid output, but also if symptoms recurred. The starting dose was generally 60 mg daily and the median dose ranged between 60 and 70 mg daily over the study period. There was no evidence of tachyphylaxis. More than 90% of the patients were successfully controlled on total daily doses of 120 mg or less; one-third of patients required divided doses. Tolerance was good: there were no obvious drug-related effects on laboratory variables, including fasting serum gastrin, and there were very few adverse events. Thirteen patients died (11 of the primary disease and two of other causes), four underwent successful tumour resection, six underwent total gastrectomy (though acid secretion was controlled in five), four patients' treatment was changed to other medical therapy, and one was lost to follow-up. Omeprazole thus appears to be both safe and very effective in controlling acid hypersecretion in this group of patients, and to provide a suitable alternative to total gastrectomy.

The H+K+-ATPase is supposed to be the terminal step in the acid-secreting pathway in the parietal cell. Omeprazole blocks this enzyme, resulting in a marked inhibition of basal and stimulated acid secretion. With omeprazole 20 mg daily, 24-hour intragastric acidity is decreased by about 90%. Several clinical studies have now been published in which omeprazole has been compared with the H2-receptor antagonists cimetidine and ranitidine. Omeprazole in doses between 20 and 40 mg daily resulted in healing rates between 65% and 82% after treatment for 2 weeks and between 90% and 100% after treatment for 4 weeks. Treatment with omeprazole also gave faster and more pronounced pain relief. One comparative study in gastric ulcer has also been published showing healing rates equal to those with ranitidine. Placebo-controlled trials have also shown very pronounced therapeutic effect in reflux esophagitis. Omeprazole seems to be the drug of choice in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, giving beneficial clinical effects and pronounced and long-lasting reduction in gastric acid secretion.

Omeprazole is the first representative of a new class of gastric acid secretion inhibitors. It acts by specific and prolonged inhibition of H+K+ ATPase, or proton pump, which is the terminal and compulsory stage of acid secretion by the parietal cells. The drug therefore inhibits both basal and stimulated secretion. It appears from therapeutic trials that omeprazole administered in doses of 20 mg a.m. once a day is superior to the H2-receptor antagonists in the healing of active duodenal ulcers and ulcerated reflux oesophagitis. It is as active or slightly more active than histamine inhibitors in gastric ulcers. Finally, it is the treatment of choice to prevent ulcerations in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. These are the 4 indications for omeprazole at the moment. The use of that drug for periods of a few weeks has not given rise to any significant side-effect.

The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, adverse effects, and dosage and administration of omeprazole are reviewed. Omeprazole, a substituted benzimidazole, has a unique site and mechanism of action because it inhibits the proton pump--i.e., hydrogen, potassium adenosine triphosphatase (H+,K+-ATPase)--and consequently blocks the final common step in the gastric acid secretory pathway. Omeprazole inhibits basal and histamine-, gastrin- and pentagastrin-stimulated gastric hydrochloric acid secretion. It produces a dose-dependent reduction in gastric acidity, gastric acid output, and gastric juice volume and has variable effects on pepsin secretion. Omeprazole has no documented effect on esophageal motility or lower esophageal sphincter pressure. Omeprazole is variably absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, and food appears to decrease the rate, but not the extent, of drug absorption. The drug is approximately 95% bound to plasma proteins and is metabolized to inactive components that are enterohepatically or renally eliminated. Omeprazole is more effective (in most studies) than H2-receptor antagonists in treating duodenal ulcer, at least as effective in treating benign gastric ulcer, and more effective in treating reflux esophagitis. Omeprazole has been used successfully in patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome refractory to treatment with H2-receptor antagonists. Gastrointestinal complaints (nausea and diarrhea) are the most commonly reported adverse effects associated with omeprazole therapy. The most frequently reported laboratory abnormality occurring with omeprazole use is elevation of serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase concentrations. Omeprazole will serve a valuable role in the management of gastrointestinal tract ulcers and hypersecretory conditions.

Lansoprazole is a benzimidazole derivative that effectively decreases gastric acid secretion, regardless of the primary stimulus, via inhibition of gastric H+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase). It provides effective symptom relief and healing of peptic ulcer and reflux oesophagitis after 4 to 8 weeks of therapy and appears to prevent recurrence of lesions when administered as maintenance therapy. When administered at therapeutic dosages, lansoprazole produced higher healing rates than ranitidine or famotidine in patients with duodenal and gastric ulcers. Lansoprazole heals duodenal ulcers more rapidly than ranitidine or famotidine. Relief of ulcer symptoms in lansoprazole recipients is at least equivalent to, and tends to be more rapid than, that in patients receiving histamine H2-receptor antagonists. In comparisons with omeprazole 20 mg/day, lansoprazole 30 mg/day produced duodenal ulcer healing more rapidly and reduced ulcer pain to a greater extent at 2 weeks, but overall healing rates were similar after 4 weeks of therapy. At therapeutic dosages, lansoprazole produces superior healing and symptom relief of reflux oesophagitis in comparison with ranitidine, and it tends to relieve heartburn more effectively than omeprazole, although both agents produce equivalent healing. Healing of peptic ulcers or reflux oesophagitis refractory to histamine H2-receptor antagonists occurs after 8 weeks in the majority of patients treated with lansoprazole, and lansoprazole and omeprazole demonstrate similar efficacy in patients with refractory peptic ulcers. In patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, lansoprazole effectively controls mean basal gastric acid output. Lansoprazole is generally well tolerated in clinical trials. The incidence of adverse effects is similar to that of omeprazole, ranitidine and famotidine in comparative studies. Combination therapy with lansoprazole and antibacterial agents such as amoxicillin, tinidazole, roxithromycin and/or metronidazole appears to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in 22 to 80% of patients with this organism. Limited data also suggest that lansoprazole may have superior activity against H. pylori in comparison with omeprazole, although the clinical relevance of this preliminary finding requires further confirmation. Thus, lansoprazole may be considered as alternative to existing antisecretory agents available for the treatment of acid-related disorders, particularly because it may provide more rapid healing and relief of symptoms.

Until recently, suppression of gastric acid secretion in patients with peptic ulcer was empirical and of unproven value. Anticholinergic drugs had only modest inhibitory effects on acid secretion, many side effects, and uncertain efficacy. Controlled trials using antacids demonstrated the value of reducing gastric acidity for healing duodenal ulcer. The discovery of histamine-2 (H2) receptor antagonists in the 1970s and the introduction of H+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitors in the 1980s made reduction of acid secretion the first-choice modality for healing and preventing recurrences of duodenal and gastric ulcers. The demonstration in the late 1980s and early 1990s that Helicobacter pylori (Hp) was a major risk factor for duodenal and gastric ulcer recurrences suggested that peptic ulcer could be cured by eradicating this organism from the stomach. However, antibiotic eradication of Hp can be difficult, often requiring simultaneous administration of a drug that suppresses acid secretion. Therefore, H2 and proton pump inhibitors continue to play a role in the management of duodenal and gastric ulcers associated with Hp and also play a primary role in the therapy of other acid-related disorders, such as gastroesophageal reflux diseases, stress ulcers, ulcers associated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and gastrinoma (Zollinger-Ellison syndrome) and other acid hypersecretory states.

Historically, the interplay between basic research and clinical observation has been essential in the development of new therapies for peptic ulcer disease. That histamine is an important regulator of acid secretion emerged from basic research, followed by the clinical development and use of the H2-receptor antagonists. Basic research contributed again by defining the importance of H+/K(+)-ATPase in acid secretion, resulting in a new class of useful antisecretory agents. Basic studies also gave us prostaglandins (PG) as mucosal protective agents. As 'replacement' therapy, clinicians have found that PG are protective against non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastric ulcer (GU). Physiologic studies established that somatostatin is a potent inhibitor of acid secretion, providing the stimulus for clinical studies in Zollinger-Ellison (ZE) Syndrome with a synthetic analog (octreotide). Work on isoforms of the parietal cell gastrin receptor has shown differences in the cytoplasmic domain for G protein coupling. This will aid in understanding how receptor changes and coupling to second messengers relate to the aetiopathogenesis of abnormal gastric secretion. Immune cells express mRNA for histamine, muscarinic and gastrin receptors, supporting the relevance of mucosal immunology in gastroenterology, especially in light of Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis and ulcers. Lab research has revealed a potential role for basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and another endogenous peptide BPC-15, in ulcer healing. The former substance may be responsible for the antiulcer efficacy of sucralfate. Intensive basic work on how H. pylori organisms attach to gastric cells and initiate inflammatory reactions in the mucosa will have unquestionable impact on improved therapy for peptic ulcer disease.

H+, K(+)-ATPase inhibitors such as omeprazole are the antisecretory agents of choice for the management of gastric acid hypersecretory states, including the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. However, long-term follow-up data on the overall efficacy and safety of these agents in large numbers of patients are lacking. In the current study we examined the long-term efficacy and safety of omeprazole in 116 patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome treated with oral omeprazole at a single centre for up to 114 months (mean +/- S.E.M. = 38 +/- 3 months). The initial omeprazole maintenance dose was established according to the acute upward dose titration method in 89/116 patients (77%). Gastric acid output was effectively controlled using 60 mg of omeprazole once daily in 41/89 patients (46%) and 22/89 patients (25%) required twice daily omeprazole therapy. The mean ranitidine equivalent dose for patients who required 60 mg omeprazole once daily (2.5 +/- 0.2 g/day) was significantly lower than the mean ranitidine equivalent dose for patients who required more than 60 mg omeprazole once daily (4.3 +/- 0.3 g/day). Long-term omeprazole maintenance therapy was discontinued in 36/116 patients (31%) but in no cases was discontinuation due either to drug-induced side-effects or uncontrolled gastric acid output. Fasting serum gastrin levels were significantly elevated above pre-treatment levels at only one time point during follow-up and were likely due to tumour growth rather than a drug effect. The final long-term omeprazole maintenance doses were lower than the initial doses but correlated closely with the pre-omeprazole basal acid output (r = 0.41, P < 0.001) and ranitidine equivalent dose requirements (r = 0.49, P < 0.001). We conclude that omeprazole effectively and safely controls gastric acid hypersecretion in all patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome for up to nine years without evidence by tachyphylaxis.

Lansoprazole, a new substituted benzimidazole, is an effective acid proton pump inhibitor acting by inhibiting selectively H+/K+ ATPase of the gastric parietal cell. This study was performed to assess the effect of successive 30, 60, 90 and 120 mg dosages of lansoprazole in 4 patients suffering from Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The basal gastric acid output was markedly inhibited in comparison with baseline values (mean maximal reduction: 87%; extremes: 75-99%) and was dose-related. Lansoprazole inhibited pepsin output globally with a dose range effect between 30 and 90 mg/day. The treatment induced a rapid relief of clinical symptoms. No biological abnormality was noted. These data proved that lansoprazole is efficient for treating gastric acid hypersecretion in patients suffering from ZES.
