Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: patients with acute drug-induced liver injury

Who may be able to join

  • No restriction on age and gender.
  • Patients need to meet one of the following biochemical thresholds for acute liver injury recommended by the international consensus:
  • ALT < 5 x ULN
  • ALP < 2 x ULN
  • ALT 3 ULN and TBIL 2 ULN
  • The duration of liver biochemical abnormalities does not exceed 90 days.
  • For the clinical diagnosis of acute drug-induced liver injury, the RUCAM scale ≥ 6 points is required. However, if the RUCAM scale score is 3-5 points, the opinions of 3 experts are needed to confirm the diagnosis of DILI, and the patients can only be enrolled after the experts agree to it.
  • The patient signs the informed consent form after fully understanding the nature of the study, the nature of his/her disease, related treatment methods, and the potential risks associated with participating in the trial.

Who cannot join

  • Non-drug induced liver injury
  • An inability to complete the visits prescribed by the study

About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Prospective Cohort Study on the Diagnostic Value and Prognostic Factors of the RUCAM Scale in Patients With Acute Drug-induced Liver Injury Based on Chronic Liver Disease

This study is a multi-center, prospective, non-interventional cohort study with an estimated enrollment of 600 patients with acute DILI. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the RUCAM scale and/or expert evaluation, patients with a clinical diagnosis of acute DILI will be included in the study to establish a multi-center, prospective DILI cohort. Depending on the presence or absence of associated chronic liver disease, the patients will be divided into the basic DILI group with chronic liver disease and basic DILI group without chronic liver disease. All enrolled patients should complete at least six months of follow-up.

This study is a multi-center, prospective, non-interventional cohort study with an estimated enrollment of 600 patients with acute DILI. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the RUCAM scale and/or expert evaluation, patients with a clinical diagnosis of acute DILI will be included in the study to establish a multi-center, prospective DILI cohort. Depending on the presence or absence of associated chronic liver disease, the patients will be divided into the basic DILI group with chronic liver disease and basic DILI group without chronic liver disease. All enrolled patients should complete at least six months of follow-up.

This research will propose a new or optimized DILI diagnostic scheme based on the analysis of the problems existing in the practice of RUCAM scale, the clinical characteristics and prognosis of DILI, the exploration of biomarkers, and all the comprehensive information of big data from Hepatox platform, and establish a big data-based diagnosis model or auxiliary diagnosis decision system.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Drug-induced Liver Injury and Chronic Liver Disease, run by Drug Induced Liver Disease Study Group.

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 8 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Clinical symptoms and signs (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 5 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 27 Aug 2020.
