About this trial
A prospective, multi-center, non-interventional cohort study is going to conduct to explore the clinical characteristics, culprit drug(s) or herb(s), outcomes and risk factors of Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in China and screen novel serum markers.
A prognostic model incorporating with the novel serum marker(s) for DILI would be established and validated to imporve the prognosis of patients in China .

This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
RUCAM ≥6 and met one of the following biochemical conditions: (1) ALT≥5 ULN, (2) or ALP ≥2 ULN, (3) or ALT≥3 ULN and TBil≥2 ULN.
RUCAM between 3-5, five experienced hepatologists in leading site evaluate and vote the diagnosis of DILI, the case would be enrolled if only ≥4 out of 5 hepatologists agree with the diagnosis.
Onset to enrollment ≤3 months.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
death/liver transplantation
DILI has a primary, contributory role for the death (liver-related mortality) or no role for the death (all-cause mortality) . DILI is the primary indication for liver transplantation.
acute liver failure
Acute liver failure is defined as elevated bilirubin and prolonged international normalized ratio (INR) ≥1.5 accompanied by mental disturbance within 26 weeks after DILI onset without underlying chronic liver diseases.
Secondary outcomes
chronic DILI
Chronicity is defined as the presence of any one of the following: (i) persistently elevated liver biochemistry indexes; (ii) radiological or histological evidence of persistent liver injury at one year after DILI onset.
recovery
Recovery status is defined as clinical and biochemical resolution within 1 year after DILI onset, with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤40 U/L, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ≤150 U/L, and total bilirubin (TB) ≤1.5 upper limits of normal (ULN) (25.65 μmol/L).
