Study summary

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Anluohuaxian in blocking the progression of pulmonary fibrosis and improving lung function in patients with COVID-19.

Read the detailed description

In clinical institutions that enroll patients with corona virus disease 2019, two arms, multi-center, randomized and controlled methods are adopted. Patients are divided into two groups, Anluohuaxian combined with regular treatment group and regular treatment group. 750 patients are expected to be enrolled and the cases are allocated according to the ratio of 2( Anluohuaxian combined with regular treatment group): 1(regular treatment group).

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes in high-resolution computer tomography of the lung

    Changes in ground-glass shadows, interstitial or air nodules found on high-resolution computer tomography

    Time frame: 3 months

  2. Change in 6-minute walking distance

    Time frame: 3 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Changes in compound physiological index

    Time frame: 3 months

  2. Changes in the scores of the St. George's Hospital Respiratory Questionnaire

    St. George's Hospital Respiratory Questionnaire range from 0 to 100. 0 stands for no impact on life and 100 stands for extreme impact on life.

    Time frame: 3 months

  3. Changes in modified British Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC) scores

    mMRC score range from 0 to 4. 0 stands for wheezing only when exercising hard and 4 stands for severe breathing difficulties.

    Time frame: 3 months

  4. Changes in vital capacity of the lung

    Adult male vital capacity is about 3,500 ml and female is about 2,500 ml.

    Time frame: 3 months
