Eligibility Criteria

KEY INCLUSION CRITERIA

  • Prior completion of Study E3810-G000-302 or -303. Subjects will need to have healed erosive esophagitis (absence of esophageal mucosal breaks or erosions) confirmed by EGD and sustained resolution of heartburn at Visit 4 or 5 of Study E3810-G000-302 or -303.

KEY EXCLUSION CRITERIA

  • Esophageal motility disorders (achalasia, scleroderma, or esophageal spasm).
  • Barrett's esophagus or esophageal stricture.
  • Use of prescription or non-prescription proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), histamine receptor antagonists (H2RA), antacids, sucralfate, misoprostol, prokinetics or drugs with significant anticholinergic effects throughout the study.
  • Subjects who require chronic use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), oral steroids (>= 20 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), or aspirin (->; 325 mg/day).
  • Significant hepatic, renal, respiratory, endocrine, hematologic, neurologic, psychiatric, or cardiovascular system abnormalities that would be likely to interfere with the conduct of the study, the interpretation of study results, or the health of the subject during the study.
  • Any condition that would make the subject, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor, unsuitable for the study.
