About this trial
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Shenbai Granules for Preventing Recurrence of Low-Risk Colorectal Adenomas(LRCRA).
Study Population: Post-resection patients with low-risk colorectal adenomas and Spleen Deficiency with Dampness-Heat Syndrome per TCM criteria.
Sample Size: 450 subjects (1:1 randomization; 225 per arm) accounting for ≤20% dropout.
Study Hypothesis (Exploratory) : This exploratory trial aims to evaluate the potential efficacy and safety of Shenbai Granules, a TCM formula, in reducing LRCRA recurrence. Based on preliminary data suggesting a 32.64% relative risk reduction in LRCRA recurrence at 2 years, we hypothesize that Shenbai Granules may demonstrate clinically meaningful prevention of adenoma recurrence and offer a favorable safety profile in the target TCM syndrome population. No formal statistical hypothesis is tested.
Statistical Analysis Analysis Sets: mITT (primary efficacy), PPS, SS (safety). Primary Analysis: Proportion difference (Newcombe method) and χ²/Fisher's exact test (stratified CMH if applicable).
Sensitivity analyses: PPS, tipping-point imputation for missing data. Safety: Descriptive summaries of AEs/SAEs (MedDRA-coded), lab abnormalities.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Detection rate of metachronous colorectal adenoma within 3 years after initial administration.
the proportion of patients with detected metachronous colorectal adenomas during surveillance colonoscopy performed within 3 years after baseline polypectomy or adenoma resection to the total number of patients in the group.
Secondary outcomes
Cumulative number, quantity, size, location, and pathology of detected metachronous colorectal adenomas within 3 years after initial administration.
The cumulative number, mean number, mean size, location distribution (left-sided colon, right-sided colon, rectum), and histological classification (histological architecture: tubular adenoma, villous adenoma, tubulovillous adenoma; dysplasia grade: high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia \[HGIN\], low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia \[LGIN\]) of metachronous colorectal adenomas detected during surveillance colonoscopy performed within 3 years after baseline polypectomy.
Detection rate of serrated lesions within 3 years after initial administration.
The proportion of patients with detected serrated lesions during surveillance colonoscopy performed within 3 years after baseline polypectomy or adenoma resection to the total number of patients in the group.
Cumulative number, quantity, size, location, and pathology of detected serrated lesions within 3 years after initial administration.
The cumulative number, mean number, mean size, location distribution (left-sided colon, right-sided colon, rectum), and histological classification (Traditional Serrated Adenoma \[TSA\], Sessile Serrated Lesion \[SSL\], Hyperplastic Polyp \[HP\]) of serrated lesions detected during surveillance colonoscopy performed within 3 years after baseline polypectomy.
