In this single center, double-blind, randomized clinical trial, patients diagnosed with FD using Rome III criteria were allocated to either test group (300 mg of BST-104, containing 175 mg of Flos Lonicera extracts, twice daily) or placebo group (300 mg placebo, twice daily). Male and female patients > 19 years of age who had mild to moderate FD were eligible. They had baseline endoscopic screening, and patients without active lesions (peptic ulcer disease or gastric erosions) were enrolled. Written informed consent was obtained from all participants.
This study was conducted to prove the efficacy of BST-104 in patients with mild to moderate FD.
