Aim To conduct a retrospective multicentre study at 31 medical centres in Japan, to investigate the association between the eradication of Helicobacter pylori and the development of new gastric cancer after endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for early gastric cancer. Methods Patients included those in whom early gastric cancer had been removed by EMR, and who had received follow-up endoscopic treatment. All patients underwent follow-up endoscopic treatment at least once a year after the initial EMR. The rate of new gastric cancer development was compared among those patients for whom H. pylori had been successfully eradicated and those with persistent H. pylori infection. Results The study included 2835 patients with a median follow-up period of 2 years (range 0.5-12 years). Helicobacter pylori was eradicated in 356 patients (13%). Metachronous gastric cancers developed in eight (2%) patients among those who had been successfully treated for H. pylori, compared with 129 patients (5%) among those with persistent H. pylori infection (P = 0.021; OR = 0.42; 95% CI = 0.20-0.86). Conclusion Although longer term, prospective randomized controlled trials are needed to better estimate the extent and sustainability of possible benefits, this study suggests that the eradication of H. pylori may help reduce the incidence of metachronous gastric cancer.
