About this study

Official title: A Comparative Clinical Research on Therapeutic Effect and Safety of Compound Carraghenates Cream Versus Mayinglong Musk Hemorrhoid Ointment in the Treatment of Hemorrhoids

The purpose of this study is to compare the therapeutic effect and safety of compound carraghenates cream with Mayinglong musk hemorrhoid (swollen veins in the lower part of the rectum or anus) ointment in the treatment of hemorrhoids, especially regarding the relief of pain.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), randomized (study drug assigned by chance), multi-center (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), controlled clinical trial and comparative study of safety and efficacy of compound carraghenates cream with Mayinglong musk hemorrhoid ointment in the treatment of hemorrhoids, especially regarding the relief of pain. Participants will be randomly assigned to either of the two treatment groups that are carraghenates cream (Titanoreine) group or Mayinglong musk hemorrhoid ointment group. The total duration of the study will be 1 Week (7 days). In carraghenates cream group, 3-4 gram (g) cream will be administered each time through anal canal, twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening for consecutive 6 days and in the Mayinglong musk hemorrhoid ointment group, 2 g ointment will be administered each time through anal canal, twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening for consecutive 6 days. Efficacy will be assessed by using Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and participants' safety will be monitored throughout the trial.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain Acting Time

    The time from the first administration of the drugs to the time when the participant feels that his (her) pain has been remitted remarkably will be assessed.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 7

  2. Pain Intensity Score at Day 4

    Pain intensity will be measured on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS), ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates intense pain. Grade 1-4 represents mild pain, Grade 5-6 moderate pain, and Grade 7-10 serious pain. Higher score indicates worsening.

    Measured: Day 4

  3. Pain Intensity Score at Day 7

    Pain intensity will be measured on an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS), ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates intense pain. Grade 1-4 represents mild pain, Grade 5-6 moderate pain, and Grade 7-10 serious pain. Higher score indicates worsening.

    Measured: Day 7

  4. Daily Duration of Symptoms

    The accumulated time of the onset of all symptoms in the same day will be assessed. The baseline value before the administration of the drugs is the accumulated time of the occurrence of all symptoms in the day prior to the visit.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 7

  5. Frequency of Defecation

    The daily frequency of defecation for the day prior to the visit and each day during the trial period will be assessed.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 7

  6. Participants' Satisfaction for the Treatment

    Participants' will assess for the treatment satisfaction on numeric rating scale (NRS) ranging from 1 to 5, where 1= Very unsatisfactory; 2= Unsatisfactory; 3=General; 4= Satisfactory; 5= Very satisfactory.

    Measured: Day 7

  7. Assessment of Other Symptoms and Signs Including Bleeding, Edema, Local Discomfort, and Prolapse

    Participants will assess these symptoms on a score range of 0 to 3 where 0=none for all symptoms and 3= "Blood jets while defecating, and the blood jetting stops after defecation" for bleeding, "serious edema" for edema, "severe" for local discomfort and "it is difficult or unable to return the prolapsed pile" for prolapse.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 7

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Carraghenates Cream and Mayinglong Musk Hemorrhoid Ointment in people with Hemorrhoids, run by Xian-Janssen Pharmaceutical Ltd. 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 3 Jun 2026. 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?

Pain Acting Time (time frame: Day 1 up to Day 7). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 3 Jun 2026.
