About this trial

This study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Jin-shui Huan-xian Formula in retarding the decline of pulmonary function in IPF, generate high - quality clinical evidence, and establish a treatment plan of Jin-shui Huan-xian Formula for retarding the decline of pulmonary function in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis(IPF)

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients who meet the diagnostic criteria for IPF.

Pulmonary function: The percentage of forced vital capacity (FVC) to the predicted value is ≥ 50%; and the percentage of the diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) to the predicted value is ≥ 30%.

Patients who meet the syndrome - differentiation criteria for lung - qi deficiency syndrome, lung - and - kidney qi deficiency syndrome, etc.

Aged between 40 and 85 years old.

Disqualifiers

Patients in the acute exacerbation phase of IPF.

Patients complicated with other pulmonary diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung cancer, active pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchiectasis, and pulmonary embolism.

Patients with severe joint, peripheral nerve, and peripheral vascular diseases that affect limb movement and who are bed - ridden for a long time and cannot complete the six - minute walk test.

Patients complicated with severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (malignant arrhythmia, unstable angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarction, heart function grade 3 or above, stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.).

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Jin-shui Huan-xian granule

    Drug

    Jin-shui Huan-xian Granules: on the basis of treatment guided by "Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (an Update) and Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Adults: An Official ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT Clinical Practice Guideline ", the experimental group was given Jin-shui Huan-xian Granules for treatment. The granules were taken orally, 1 dose per day, twice a day, and the continuous administration lasted for 52 weeks.

  • Jin-shui Huan-xian granule placebo

    Drug

    Jin-shui Huan-xian granule placebo: on the basis of treatment guided by "Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (an Update) and Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Adults: An Official ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT Clinical Practice Guideline ", the experimental group was given Jin-shui Huan-xian Granules placebo for treatment. The granules were taken orally, 1 dose per day, twice a day, and the continuous administration lasted for 52 weeks.The Jin-shui Huan-xian granules and their placebo are identical in appearance, weight, color and smell.

Treatment groups

384 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Jin-shui Huan-xian granule in addition to the guideline - directed treatment.Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Jin-shui Huan-xian granule placebo in addition to the guideline - directed treatment.Placebo comparator 1 intervention
