ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
Primary
The Percentage of Subjects Whose Gastric Ulcer(s) (GUs) Was (Were) Healed at Week 4 After Treatment With Esomeprazole 20 mg qd and Ranitidine 150 mg Bid in Patients Receiving Daily Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug (NSAID)Therapy.
4 weeks
Healed was defined as the absence of gastric ulcers. It was calculated as the proportion of subjects whose gastric ulcer(s) healed after 4 weeks treatment. (Ulcers were on S stage, stage 1 = Nonblanchable erythema of intact skin, stage 2 = Partial thickness skin loss involving epidermis, dermis, or both, stage 3 = Full thickness skin loss involving damage to or necrosis of subcutaneous tissue, stage 4 = Full thickness skin loss with extensive destruction, tissue necrosis, or damage to muscle, bone, or supporting structures or absent).

It was calculated as the proportion of subjects whose gastric ulcer(s) healed after 8 weeks treatment.
SecondaryThe Resolution of Heartburn Symptoms at Week 4 and Week 8 After Treatment With Esomeprazole 20 mg qd and Ranitidine 150 mg Bid in Patients Receiving Daily NSAID Therapy.week 4 and week 8
Resolution rate of investigator-assessed GI symptoms, including heartburn, acid regurgitation, nausea, abdominal fullness and sleep disorder. It was calculated as the percentage of subjects whose heartburn symptoms were resolved at Week 8.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With the Occurance of Any Adverse Event.8 weeksSafety evaluation including vital signs, physical examination, ECG, adverse events and clinical laboratory evaluations during 8 weeks treatment.
Secondary
The Percentage of Participants Whose Duodenal Ulcer(s) (DUs) Was (Were) Healed at Week 4 and Week 8 After Treatment With Esomeprazole 20 mg qd and Ranitidine 150 mg Bid in Patients Receiving Daily NSAID Therapy.
4 and 8 weekHealed was defined as the absence of ulcers (Ulcers were on S stage or absent). It was calculated as the proportion of subjects whose duodenal ulcer healed after 4 and 8 weeks treatment.
Secondary
The Percentage of Participants Whose GU(s) and DU(s) in Combination Were Healed at Week 4 and Week 8 After Treatment With Esomeprazole 20 mg qd and Ranitidine 150 mg Bid in Patients Receiving Daily NSAID Therapy
4 & 8 weeksHealed was defined as the absence of ulcers (Ulcers were on S stage or absent). It was calculated as the proportion of subjects whose gastric and duodenal ulcer healed after 4 and 8 weeks treatment.
