  • Glucocorticoids+hepatoprotectantDrug

    Also called prednisone, methylprednisolone

    Participants received glucocorticoids (0.4mg/kg/d po.) and hepatoprotectant for 7 days.

  • hepatoprotectantDrug

    Also called Ademetionine1,4-Butanedisulfonate, Polyene Phosphatidyl choline

    Participants received hepatoprotectants (i.v.gtt.) for 7 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Glucocorticoids+hepatoprotectant and hepatoprotectant in people with Drug-induced Liver Injury, run by Li Yang at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

percentage of patients that AST or ALT decline 25% at day 4 (time frame: Change from Baseline ALT and AST at day4). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Apr 2022.
