Details and patient eligibility

About

Hydronidone capsules are pyridinone-based small molecule compounds. Hydronidone has not been approved for commercial sale both domestically and internationally. The applicant has completed the preliminary Phase I and Phase II clinical trials. The results showed that Hydronidone is a safe and effective drug for treating liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B, and it has good safety and tolerability.

Based on the preliminary clinical research, a special population study has been initiated. The aim is to investigate the pharmacokinetic differences and safety of honginone capsules in patients with renal insufficiency and healthy subjects, in order to provide a basis for the clinical medication of patients with renal dysfunction.

Enrollment: 56 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 70 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

• (5) If the subject has used any drugs that inhibit or induce the liver's metabolism of the drug within 28 days before taking the study drug (common liver enzyme inducers: barbiturates, carbamazepine, amiloride, griseofulvin, amitriptyline, phenytoin, grumet, rifampicin, dexamethasone; common liver enzyme inhibitors: chlorpromazine, cimetidine, ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, chloramphenicol, isoniazid, sulfonamide drugs);
