Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was undertaken at an outpatient clinic in Shuguang Hospital. Newly diagnosed cough variant asthma adult patients with the T.C.M. pattern of pathogenic-wind are randomly divided into treatment and control group, with 60 patients in each group. Clinical observation of the Respiratory Impedance and Inflammation in Cough Variant Asthma adults reated in Combination of Chanqin Granules.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was undertaken at an outpatient clinic in Shuguang Hospital. Newly diagnosed cough variant asthma adult patients with the T.C.M. pattern of pathogenic-wind are randomly divided into treatment and control group, with 60 patients in each group. All patients enrolled are treated with Budesonide + Formoterol Fumarate dry power (160/4.5ug bid) for inhalation. The treatment group are given additional Chanqin granulate (10g bid) and placebo granulate for controlled group. Investigators hypothesis that Chanqin granules may reduce day \& night cough score as well as the respiratory impedance, inflammation statues, and improve T.C.M. syndrome after 8 weeks of treatment.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

A total of 120 eligible participants will be randomly allocated to the placebo group and treatment group in a 1:1 ratio. Randomized sequences of each center and every packed drug were generated by an independent professor at the Drug Clinical Research Center of Shanghai University of TCM, using a stratified block randomization method with 30 blocks of block size 8 based on the PROC PLAN function of the SAS 9.2 software analysis system (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA).

Blinding Strategy

TRIPLE

Participants Caregivers Investigators
Randomization sequences will be concealed in lightproof, sealed envelopes kept by a specified project manager and the sponsor, who are not involved in the recruitment, intervention, assessment, or statistical analysis. The treatment allocation will be blinded to the participants and investigators throughout the study, and the outcome assessors and statisticians will not be involved in the participants' screening and allocation. Each patient will receive a unique randomized number corresponding to the drug according to the group allocation. Furthermore, the intervention group type will be replaced by the letter A, B as blind codes of allocation. The blind codes will not be disclosed until the statistical analysis is completed.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

treatment group

patients are treated with Budesonide + Formoterol Fumarate dry powder (160/4.5ug bid) for inhalation and additional Chanqin granules 10g three times a day. All granules will be taken orally with 200 ml warm water.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Chanqin granules

Intervention Type DRUG

All patients enrolled in the research are treated with Budesonide + Formoterol Fumarate dry powder (160/4.5ug bid) for inhalation. Patients in treatment group are given additional Chanqin granules 10g three times a day; and analogous for the controlled group.

controlled group
