Study summary

Reflux esophagitis is a common clinical disease ; pPI or potassium competitive acid blocker ( P-CAB ) is the first choice for the treatment of reflux esophagitis. However, patients with recurrent symptoms and severe esophagitis ( Los Angeles grade C and D ) after long-term use of PPI or P-CAB usually need long-term maintenance treatment. Attention should be paid to the possible adverse reactions of long-term acid suppression therapy and the interaction between drugs. The main efficacy of Jinghua Weikang capsules is regulating qi and dispersing cold, clearing heat and removing blood stasis. Applicable to cold and heat syndrome, qi stagnation and blood stasis caused by epigastric distension, pain, belching, acid reflux, noisy, bitter taste ; duodenal ulcer see the above syndrome. In the early stage, a series of studies were carried out on Jinghua Weikang Capsule, which confirmed that Jinghua Weikang Capsule showed the effect of acid inhibition and symptom relief in the treatment of reflux esophagitis, and had a synergistic effect when combined with western medicine. However, Jinghua Weikang Capsule still lacks sufficient evidence to support the reduction of the recurrence rate of reflux esophagitis. Therefore, we carried out this experiment to explore the clinical efficacy of Jinghua Weikang Capsule in the maintenance treatment of reflux esophagitis, so as to reduce the recurrence rate of reflux esophagitis and relieve symptoms.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who received antibiotics, bismuth, H2RA and PPI treatment within two weeks before the first medication ;
  • pregnant or lactating women ;
  • patients with moderate or above depression and mental disorders ;
  • Patients with dysphagia and peptic ulcer such as achalasia, esophageal cancer ;

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(9)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Absolute neutrophil count (ANC)

The number of neutrophils, white blood cells that help fight infection, in a given amount of blood. Too few raises the risk of infection.

It is a count, not a percentage of the white cells. Limits are written in units that mean the same: ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L is ≥ 1,500 per mm³ (µL). Each lab has its own reference range.

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

Creatinine clearance (CrCl)

How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.

ECG (electrocardiogram)

A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 28, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
