What is being measured

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

  1. the stone expulsion time, stone-free time

    The diminishing or vanishing of residual fragment identified by post-surgery B-ultrasound or KUB could suggest a residual fragment expulsion. Evaluation with KUB showing the shadow of calculi disappearing completely followed by a confirmation using CT could suggest a residual fragment clearance.

    Measured: From baseline to 12 weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the stone expulsion rate and stone-free rate.

    The diminishing or vanishing of residual fragment identified by post-surgery B-ultrasound or KUB could suggest a residual fragment expulsion. Evaluation with KUB showing the shadow of calculi disappearing completely followed by a confirmation using CT could suggest a residual fragment clearance.

    Measured: From baseline to 12 weeks of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ningmitai capsule and Combined group (Ningmitai plus tamsulosin) in people with Ureteral Calculi, run by Xintian Pharmaceutical.

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 30 Oct 2023. 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.

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?

the stone expulsion time, stone-free time (time frame: From baseline to 12 weeks of treatment). 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 30 Oct 2023.
