About this trial
This is a multicentre prospective, randomized, double-blind and imitation, positive-drug parallel controlled clinical trail. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Huaiqihuang Granule in patients with CKD stage 3 primary glomerulonephritis.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Rate of change in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) compared to baseline
Events based on eGFR measure compared to baseline calculated using the CKD-EPI formula.
Secondary outcomes
Change in serum creatinine levels from baseline
Serum creatinine is being assessed once every 8 weeks for a total of 6 times during the whole study
Change in 24-hour urine protein ration from baseline.
Urinary protein is being assessed once every 8 weeks for a total of 6 times during the whole study
Changes in urine erythrocyte levels from baseline
Urine erythrocyte is being assessed once every 8 weeks for a total of 6 times during the whole study
Other outcomes
Composite endpoint incidence
The incidence of endpoint events:① eGFR decreased by 15% from baseline and was reviewed within 2 weeks, if no improvement was found or if the eGFR continued to decrease by 15% below baseline;② Serum creatinine doubles or enters maintenance of renal replacement therapy or death
Incidence of adverse events
The proportion of patients with adverse events to the total population.
Incidence of adverse reactions
The proportion of patients with adverse reactions to the total population
