Official title
Effect of Babao Dan Capsule Combined With Antiviral Therapy on the Incidence of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients With Hepatitis B-related Cirrhosis: A Multicenter, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study
Overview
This study aims to establish a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group clinical trial cohort. The cohort will include high-risk populations for hepatitis B cirrhosis-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from multiple centers nationwide, who meet the criteria of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation as Shi-re-du-yun syndrome and have an aMAP score \>60 points. The objective is to evaluate whether combining Babao Dan Capsule with standard anti-hepatitis B virus therapy can further reduce the incidence of HCC in this high-risk population.
Interventions
- Drug Babao Dan Capsule
receive compound Babao Dan Capsule (0.6 g per dose, three times daily) in addition to standard antiviral therapy. - Drug Babao Dan Capsule simulant
receive compound Babao Dan Capsule simulant (0.6 g per dose, three times daily) in addition to standard antiviral therapy.
Primary outcome measures
- Hepatocellular carcinoma incidence in high-risk patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis during a 96-week follow-up [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
Secondary outcome measures (8)
- Incidence of hepatic decompensation events [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- Trends in the four diagnostic methods of traditional Chinese medicine [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- Incidence of adverse events (AEs) [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs). [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- FIB-4 index [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- aspartate aminotransferase (AST) [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- alanine aminotransferase (ALT) [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
- alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) [Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 96 weeks]
