Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study was conducted in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial design. Two groups were designed, the experimental group and the placebo control group. Patients in both groups received basic treatment with vitamin C effervescent tablets. Tanreqing capsule was added to basic treatment in the experimental group, and placebo was added to basic treatment in the control group. The treatment course was 7 days, and the observation period was set to 7 days, with a daily visit.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Tanreqing capsule
  • Drug: Tanreqing capsule simulator
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Tanreqing capsule in the treatment of MILD and common COVID-19. The trial was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial design. A total of 480 patients were divided into 2 groups: experimental group and control group 3:1. Patients in both groups received basic treatment with vitamin C effervescent tablets. Tanreqing capsule was added to basic treatment in the experimental group, and placebo was added to basic treatment in the control group. The treatment course was 7 days, and the observation period was set to 7 days, with a daily visit.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Improvement of major symptoms of COVID-19 [8 days]

      On day 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7, subjects' conditions and symptoms were recorded, and they were divided into primary and secondary symptoms according to mild and ordinary symptoms of COVID-19. The total score was 15 points, and the total score < 3 was regarded as symptom disappearance.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Ct values of N gene and ORF gene were detected by novel Coronavirus nucleic acid [8 days]

      Nucleic acid tests were performed on days 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. Ct values of N gene and ORF gene detected by novel Coronavirus nucleic acid were determined by fluorescence quantitative PCR. Negative: no Ct value or Ct value & GT; 40. Positive: CT value &lt; 35.

    2. Turn to weight ratio [8 days]

      The proportion of mild to normal type and normal to severe type. The condition of the subjects will be determined on day 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively. The disease typing will be determined by Novel Coronavirus Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol for Pneumonia (Trial Version 9)
