Abstract Background Helicobacter pylori infection and hyperplastic polyp are known to have strong connections, but there are not enough randomized controlled trial data. Aims To evaluate the effect of H. pylori eradication on gastric hyperplastic polyp. Method This is an open-labeled, single-center, randomized controlled trial. Patients with hyperplastic polyp and current infection of H. pylori were randomly assigned to eradication or non-eradication groups. All participants underwent followup endoscopy to investigate the regression of gastric polyps. Gastric polyp regression was defined as the disappearance of polyps or a reduction of more than 50% in size. Results Thirty-two patients were randomized to eradication (n = 17) and non-eradication groups (n = 15). Final included patients were 14 in eradication group and 13 in non-eradication group. All patients showed polyp regression in eradication group, whereas no regression was observed in non-eradication group (P
