About this trial
This study is being done to determine if the dosing of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) medication based on CYP2C19 genotype-derived phenotype leads to improved healing of erosive esophagitis compared to conventional PPI medication dosing.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Improvement of Los Angeles (LA) classification of Erosive Esphagitis (EE) grade
Assessment of erosive esophagitis grade to determine healing in both arms. Healing would be measured by endoscopic regression of errosive esophagitis (EE) to a lower degree of inflammation. Previously assigned baseline numerical values per the LA classification of EE will be used to calculate the degree of healing in each arm at the 8th week follow up, e.g. LA grade D (initial EGD) to LA grade A (repeat EGD) would yield a score of 3 (LA D \[5\] - LA A \[2\]). A higher score hence indicating superior healing of EE.
