Methods: A randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, and positive paral el control ed clinical trial was conducted from October 2014 to March 2016. Total y 342 patients from 13 clinical centers were enrolled and randomly assigned(at the ratio of 1:1) to a treatment group(171 cases) and a control group(171 cases) by a random coding table. The patients in the treatment group were administered oral y with TXNG(5 g per time) combined with pinaverium bromide Tablet simulator(50 mg per time), 3 times per day. The patients in the control group were given TXNG simulator(5 g per time) combined with pinaverium bromide Tablets(50 mg per time), 3 times per day. The treatment course lasted for 6 weeks. The improvement of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptom Severity Score(IBS-SSS) was used to evaluate the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included adequate relief(AR) rate, Irritable Bowel Syndrome-Quality of Life Questionnaire(IBS-QOL), Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD), and the recurrence rate at fol ow-ups. Safety indices including the adverse events(AEs) and related laboratory tests were evaluated. Results: Primary outcome: IBS-SSS at baseline, weeks 2, 4, 6 showed no statistical significance in both full analysis set(FAS) and per protocol set(PPS, P>0.05). After 6 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate of IBS-SSS scores in the treatment group(147/171, 86.0%) was higher than the control group(143/171, 83.6%) by FAS(P>0.05). In regard to secondary outcomes, after 6-week treatment, there was no significant difference in AR rate, total score of IBS-QOL, improvement of HAMD and HAMA total scores between the two groups(P>0.05). The recurrence rate at 8-week fol ow-up was 12.35%(10/18) in treatment group and 15.79%(12/76) in control group, respectivery(P>0.05). A total of 21 AEs occurred in 15 cases, of which 11 occurred in 8 cases in the treatment group and 10 AEs in 7 cases in the control group. The incidence of AEs had no statistical significance between the two goups(P>0.05). Conclusion: Tongxiening Granules could relieve the symptoms of patients with IBS-D and the treatment effect was comparable to pinaverium bromide.(No. ChiCTR-IPR-15006415)展开更多
