Brief Summary

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

This study aims to establish the treatment scheme of Yiqi Huoxue Huatan granule for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with chronic respiratory failure (CRF), reducing mortality, improving quality of life and forming high quality evidence.

Detailed Description

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

COPD is a highly prevalent disease, with a prevalence among people 40 years of age or older of 10.1% worldwide and 13.7% in China. COPD has become the third leading cause of death worldwide. COPD complicated by CRF is serious and has a high mortality rate. At present, ideal and effective treatment is inadequate. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has some potential in improving outcomes in COPD with CRF.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial to evaluate the effect of Yiqi Huoxue Huatan granule on reducing mortality and improving quality of life in COPD with CRF. After a 14-day run-in period, 372 subjects will be randomly assigned to treatment group or control group for 52-week treatment, followed by 52-week follow-up. The primary outcomes are all-cause mortality and frequency of acute exacerbation of COPD. The secondary outcomes include clinical symptoms, COPD assessment test (CAT), arterial blood gas analysis, pulmonary function and duration of mechanical ventilation. Safety will also be assessed.
