Brief Summary

This study plans to enroll 704 patients with a history of chronic hepatitis B who have undergone radical treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma. The subjects were divided into a control group (conventional treatment group) and a combination therapy group (conventional treatment plus Biejia-Ruangan compound) according to the doctor's clinical diagnosis and treatment and the subjects' wishes in a ratio of 1:2. The subjects in the combination therapy group were treated with Biejia-Ruangan compound for 72 weeks, followed by 168 weeks of follow-up, for a total study period of 240 weeks. By analyzing the 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year recurrence-free, overall survival rate/survival time, adverse reactions, etc., the clinical effect of Biejia-Ruangan compound in reducing the risk of recurrence in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after receiving radical treatment was comprehensively evaluated, and its scientific value and practical application prospects as a potential treatment method were explored.

Interventions

Biejia-Ruangan compound have the functions of softening hardness, dispersing lumps, removing blood stasis and detoxifying, and nourishing qi and blood. Used for chronic hepatitis B liver fibrosis, as well as early liver cirrhosis characterized by blood stasis obstructing collaterals, qi and blood deficiency with incomplete heat toxicity.
