Summary
Study start date: February 3, 1983
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.Patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome require continuous control of their gastric acid secretion or else severe complications of peptic ulcer disease will occur. This study investigates the long-term efficacy of the oral gastric acid antisecretory drug, Omeprazole, which functions as a H+ - K+ ATPase inhibitor. Long-term safety will also be investigated. Also investigated is the ability of the parenteral H+-K+ ATPase inhibitor, pantoprazole to control acid secretion short-term, when oral Omeprazole cannot be used. In this study the proper maintenance dose of oral Omeprazole will be determined in each patient by determining the minimal dose of drug that reduces acid secretion to safe levels. Patients will be examined at least annually for evidence of continued efficacy and safety. Efficacy will be assessed by clinical history to assess control of symptoms due to gastric acid hypersecretion, measurements of gastric acid secretion while on Omeprazole to determine continued effectiveness of the drug and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy to assess changes in the gastrointestinal mucosa. Safety will be determined by assessing clinical and laboratory parameters such as changes in hematologic or clinical chemistry parameters. Possible drug induced changes in the gastric mucosa will be assessed by gastric biopsies. With intravenous pantoprazole the ability of the recommended dose of 80 mg three times a day to control acid secretion will be investigated and if this fails, 80 mg four times a day will be assessed.

Criteria
INCLUSION CRITERIA: Subjects for receiving oral Omeprazole will be patients who have idiopathic gastric acid hypersecretion with basal rates of gastric acid secretion of greater than 15 mEq/hr and patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome with basal acid output greater than 10mEq/hr are eligible. Subjects with gastric acid hypersecretory states who are being treated with various antisecretory drugs under the protocols entitled "Medical Therapy of Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome" (89-DK-0015) are eligible. Patients must be 18 years of age or older. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Female patients of childbearing age who are attempting to become pregnant, are pregnant, or are unwilling to practice effective birth control will be excluded. Patients who develop adverse reactions or allergic responses to Omeprazole will be excluded.
