Brief Summary  

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a disease characterized by typical heartburn or several symptoms caused by the reflux of gastric acid or food into the esophagus.

Non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) is characterized by the presence of the typical symptoms of GERD without visible erosive esophagitis on endoscopy and erosive esophagitis (EE) is characterized by injury to the esophageal mucosa on endoscopy.

The global pooled prevalence of GERD is 13.98% and varies greatly according to region from a range of 12.88% -22.40%.

The prevalence of GERD in India ranges from 7.6% to 30%, in Russia is 13.3%. According to a study conducted in Nigeria, a typical African population, the overall prevalence of GERD was estimated to be 7.6%.

Tegoprazan is a benzimidazole derivative potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) that was developed by HK inno.N Corp in Korea; for treatment of GERD and peptic ulcer

The introduction of the potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs) has been a significant advance in the pharmacological control of gastric acid secretion.

P-CABs offer a more rapid elevation of intragastric pH than DR-PPIs, while maintaining the same degree of antisecretory effect. Compared with PPIs, tegoprazan does not need activation in an acidic environment; therefore, tegoprazan exhibits a faster onset than PPIs and has highly selective and reversible inhibitory properties against H+/K+-ATPase in parietal cells.

Compared to conventional PPIs, tegoprazan has a longer half-life and reversible binding properties, thus exhibiting a higher inhibition rate for nocturnal acid breakthrough.

Tegoprazan has the advantage of being less affected by CYP2C19-mediated drug interactions than PPIs such as omeprazole, esomeprazole, and lansoprazole
