Pneumoconiosis
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical study. The main purpose of this study was to confirm the efficacy and safety of pirfenidone capsules in the treatment of pneumoconiosis.
Detailed description
272 patients with pneumoconiosis participated in the 52-week study and were randomized to pirfenidone or placebo.
Interventions
After randomization, the experimental group took pirfenidone capsules 3 times a day，Week 1, 2 capsules/time; Week 2, 4 capsules/time; Week 3-52, 6 capsules/time
DRUGplacebo capsules
After randomization, the experimental group took placebo capsules 3 times a day，Week 1, 2 capsules/time; Week 2, 4 capsules/time; Week 3-52, 6 capsules/time
