About this study
Official title: Antiviral and Chinese Medicinal Herbs Treatment on Novel Influenza A (H1N1) Virus Infection: Multi-centre, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Chinese medicinal herbs are effective and safe for treating novel influenza A (H1N1) infection.
Read the detailed description
The antiviral agent, oseltamivir, is recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) to treat recent outbreak novel influenza A (H1N1) virus infection around world. But limited stock and resistant strain emergence raised increasing concerns. Chinese medicinal herbs, are derived from plants and usually incorporate one or more herbs as the basic drug(s) to treat the disease. The investigators performed RCT to indicate that Chinese medicinal herbs was effective and safe for treating novel influenza A (H1N1) infection.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing oseltamivir, blank and chinese medicinal herbs in people with Influenza, run by Capital Medical University at 1 site in China.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Dec 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
time to resolution of fever (the period from start of study-drug to relief of fever) (time frame: one year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00935194, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Dec 2009.
