Brief Summary

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

This study is to investigate investigate the safety and efficacy of Double plasma molecular adsorption system with sequential low-dose plasma exchange in treating hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure.

Detailed Description

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

Hepatitis b virus (HBV) related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a serious condition with high mortality rate in China. But there still lacks of effective therapies in treatment of HBV related ACLF, except liver transplantation. Non-bioartificial liver support system treatments may be effective due to previous clinical data. Plasma exchange (PE) and double plasma molecular adsorption system (DPMAS) are two common ways in clinical practice. This study is to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of combination treatment of DPMAS and low volume PE in patients with HBV related ACLF. This study will be completed in 6 medical center. Two hundred patients with HBV related ACLF enrolled in this study are divided into trial group (DPMAS, low volume PE, and comprehensive internal medical treatment) and control group (comprehensive internal medical treatment). Symptoms, signs, laboratory tests results, adverse events, mortality rates are recorded from treatment baseline to 12 weeks.

Artificial liver support system group

100 patients in this group will receive treatment of double plasma molecular adsorption system, low volume plasma exchange, and comprehensive internal medical treatment

Artificial liver support system

Intervention Type OTHER

Patients will receive treatment of double plasma molecular adsorption system (DPMAS) and low volume plasma exchange (PE) for three times, and comprehensive internal medical treatment. The volume of plasma adsorption in DPMAS is 5000\~6000 millilitre. The volume of fresh frozen plasma used in PE is 1000 millilitre.

Comprehensive medical treatment group

100 patients in this group will receive comprehensive internal medical treatment.

No interventions assigned to this group
