In Japan, a systematic eradication strategy for Helicobacter pylori has been constructed, and consists of a proton pump inhibitor/amoxicillin and clarithromycin (PPI/AC) therapy as the first-line regimen and proton pump inhibitor/amoxicillin and metronidazole (PPI/AM) therapy as the second-line regimen. The cumulative rate of H. pylori eradication has not been reported. Therefore, we investigated the annual and cumulative eradication rate to verify the efficacy of the 'Japanese eradication strategy'.
