Maintenance Of Remission

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are baseline drugs for induction and maintenance of remission in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). PPIs have proven to be highly effective in healing esophageal mucosal lesions and relieving the symptoms of the disease in most cases. However, according to the literature data, the incidence rate of clinical ineffectiveness of PPIs in the form of partial or complete persistence of current symptoms during administration of standard doses of PPIs ranges from 10 to 40%. Optimization of GERD therapy in PPI refractory patients is a significant challenge. In most cases, experts advise to increase a dose / dosage frequency of PPIs, switch to CYP2C19-independent PPIs (rabeprazole, esomeprazole, dexlansoprazole), add an esophagoprotective or promotility agents to therapy. At the same time, these recommendations have a limited effect in some patients, which opens up opportunities for looking for new solutions related to the optimization of GERD therapy. Today there is growing evidence of the relevance of the role of disruption of the cytoprotective and barrier properties of the esophageal mucosa in the genesis of GERD and the formation of refractoriness. Intercellular contacts ensure the integrity of the barrier function of the esophageal mucosa to protect it from various exogenous intraluminal substances with detergent properties. Acid-peptic attack in patients with GERD leads to alteration of the expression of some tight junction proteins in epithelial cells of the esophageal mucosa. The latter leads to increased mucosal permeability, which facilitates the penetration of hydrogen ions and other substances into the submucosal layer, where they stimulate the terminals of nerve fibers playing a role in the induction and persistence of the symptoms of the disease. The above evidence brought up to date the effectiveness study of the cytoprotective drugs with tropism to the gastrointestinal tract, as part of the combination therapy of GERD.
