Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Xuanfei Baidu granule
Brief summary
This study is a prospective,multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. This study plans to enroll 375 participants who will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio. On the basis of basic treatment, one group will receive Xuanfei Baidu granule, while the other group will receive Xuanfei Baidu granule placebo, with one sachet in the morning and one in the evening, for a duration of 7 days. Visits will be conducted on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment. If any participant experiences an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requiring hospitalization during the treatment period, they will continue taking the medication until the 7-day course is completed. In case of a COPD exacerbation hospitalization event during the study, hospital admission date, duration of hospitalization, and the treatment regimen during hospitalization will be recorded.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Treatment failure rate. | within 21 days after enrollment | Admission for acute exacerbation of COPD within 21 days after enrollment (excluding admission for reimbursement). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in the Dyspnea Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score after treatment compared to baseline: Assessing the severity of breathlessness on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment. | days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment | The minimum and maximum values for VAS scores are 0 and 10. A higher score indicates a worse outcome. |
| Change in the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score after treatment compared to baseline: Assessing the degree of health impairment on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment. | on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment | The CAT score ranges from 0 to 40. Patients scoring 0 to 10 points are classified as having mild impact of COPD, 11 to 20 points as moderate impact, 21 to 30 points as severe impact, and 31 to 40 points as very severe impact. |
| Change in the mMRC score after treatment compared to baseline: Assessing the severity of breathlessness on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment. | on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment | The minimum and maximum values for mMRC scores are 0 and 4. A higher score indicates a worse outcome. Grade 0 means I only get breathless with strenuous exercise; Grade 1 means I get short of breath when hurrying on the level or walking up a slight hill; Grade 2 means I walk slower than people of the same age on the level because of breathlessness, or I have to stop for rest when walking at my own pace on the level; Grade 3 means I stop for breath after walking about 100 meters or after a few minutes on the level; Grade 4 means I am too breathless to leave the house or I am breathless when dressing or undressing. |
| Duration of acute exacerbation of COPD in this episode. | within 21 days after enrollment | Duration of acute exacerbation of COPD in this episode. |
| Change in the Clinical Symptom Score after treatment compared to baseline: Observing clinical symptom scores on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment. | on days 7, 14, and 21 after enrollment | The clinical symptom score is based on the individual symptoms of the patient graded as none, mild, moderate, or severe, with scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The scores for each individual symptom are then added up to obtain the total score, ranging from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 27. A higher total score indicates a more severe outcome. |
| Incidence of clinical abnormalities in laboratory examination and electrocardiogram. | within 21 days after enrollment | Incidence of clinical abnormalities in laboratory examination and electrocardiogram. |
| Incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events. | within 21 days after enrollment | Incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events. |
| Change in the Exacerbations of Chronic Pulmonary Disease Tool (EXACT) score after treatment compared to baseline: Assessing daily COPD exacerbation events within 21 days after enrollment. | within 21 days after enrollment | The minimum and maximum values for EXACT scores are 0 and 70. A higher score indicates a worse outcome. |
