Key clinical point: A twice-daily moderate proton pump inhibitor (PPI) dose (20 mg omeprazole twice daily) induced greater histologic response rates in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) than a once-daily moderate PPI dose (40 mg once daily), regardless of the total daily dosage.
Major finding: The rate of histologic remission significantly improved with twice-daily moderate vs once-daily moderate PPI dose (52.8% vs 10.0%; P < .0001). Compared with a standard PPI dose (20 mg omeprazole once daily), twice-daily moderate (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 6.75; P = .0008) and high (40 mg omeprazole twice daily; aOR 12.8; P < .0001) PPI doses were associated with increased odds of histologic response.
Study details: This retrospective cohort study included 305 newly diagnosed patients with EoE who received standard, once-daily moderate, twice-daily moderate, or high PPI doses for more than 8 weeks.
