NCT06411743

Brief Summary

This study was a Phase II/III multicenter, blinded, and positiveactive-controlled clinical study with seamless adaptive design to evaluate the dose-response relationship, safety, and immunogenicity of recombinant human albumin(rHA) injection for the treatment of hypoalbuminemia in cirrhotic patients with ascites, and to provide a reference for the design of the Phase III clinical study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from baseline in ALB

    The change in ALB was determined by calculating the difference between the value measured after the last dose (immediately after the end of dosing) and the value measured before the first dose (the mean).

    Day -1/7

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Proportion of subjects with serum ALB level reaching 35 g/L at the end of administration

    Day 7/14

  • Time taken to attain serum ALB of 35 g/L

    Day1- Day7/14

  • Change from baseline in body weight of subjects at the end of administration

    Day 7/14

  • Change from baseline in abdominal circumference of subjects at the end of administration

    Day 7/14

  • Change from baseline in ascites depth of participantsubjects at the end of administration

    Day 7/14
