Brief Summary

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

In December 2019, Wuhan, in Hubei province, China, became the center of an outbreak of pneumonia caused by CoVID-19, and the number of cases of infection with CoVID-19 identified in Wuhan increased markedly over the later part of January 2020, with cases identified in multiple other Provinces of China and internationally.Given no specific antiviral therapy for CoVID-19 infection and the availability of Yinhu Qingwen Granula as a potential antiviral Chinese medicine based on vivo antiviral studies in CoVID-19, this adaptive, randomized,double-blind,controlled trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Yinhu Qingwen Granula in patients hospitalized with severe CoVID-19.

Detailed Description

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

In December 2019, Wuhan, in Hubei province, China, became the center of an outbreak of pneumonia caused by CoVID-19, and the number of cases of infection with CoVID-19 identified in Wuhan increased markedly over the later part of January 2020, with cases identified in multiple other Provinces of China and internationally.The clinical spectrum of CoVID-19 infection appears to be wide,including asymptomatic infection, mild upper respiratory disease, severe viral pneumonia with respiratory failure, and even death. However,there is no specific antiviral therapy for CoVID-19 infection, which provides a window of opportunity for testing candidate antiviral therapies. Previous experiences with SARS and MERS-CoV, highlight the need of the early intervention with Chinese medicine, and so as for CoVID-19 infection. The treatment of Chinese medicine for CoVID-19 infection suggested its benefits to improve of clinical outcomes, reduce the risk of disease progression, accelerate recovery, and reduce intensive supportive care and long-term hospitalization.Yinhu Qingwen Granula was a kind of herbal granula made from "Yinhu Qingwen Decoction", which consists of 11 common non-toxic traditional Chinese medicine such as Polygonum cuspidatum, Honeysuckle, Nepeta, Ligustrum lucidum. Previous vivo antiviral studies showed its activity for the inbition of CoVID-19. This clinical trial is planned to evaluate the improvement of the changes in the ratio of PaO2 to FiO2 from the baseline for patients with severe CoVID-19 as the primary outcome, and to evaluate the effect of the symptoms relief and virus clearance as well as the clinical safety.
