NCT07544121

Brief Summary

This study aims to establish a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group clinical trial cohort. The cohort will include high-risk populations for hepatitis B cirrhosis-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from multiple centers nationwide, who meet the criteria of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation as Shi-re-du-yun syndrome and have an aMAP score \>60 points. The objective is to evaluate whether combining Babao Dan Capsule with standard anti-hepatitis B virus therapy can further reduce the incidence of HCC in this high-risk population.
