About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Eligibility Criteria

45 Years - 70 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Meet the Western diagnostic criteria for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (clinically confirmed ALS, clinically likely ALS or clinically likely ALS- laboratory support);
  2. The score of the modified amyotrophic lateral sclerosis function scale (ALSFRS-R) was ≥2 points for each item (among which dyspnea, sitting breathing and respiratory insufficiency were all 4 points);
  3. The percentage of forced vital capacity in the predicted value (FVC%) ≥70%;
  4. the duration of the disease is 3 years or less (from the first onset of any symptoms of ALS);
  5. TCM syndrome differentiation for deficiency of temper, kidney Yang deficiency syndrome;
  6. Age 45-70 (including 45 and 70), gender unlimited;
  7. Voluntarily participate in the clinical trial, give informed consent and sign informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:(1) Patients diagnosed with familial ALS; (2) Those who have undergone gastrostomy; (3) patients with other neurological diseases similar to ALS, such as cervical spondylotic myelopathy, lumbar spondylopathy, dementia, etc., which may affect the evaluation of drug effectiveness; (4) electromyogram detection found motor nerve conduction block, sensory nerve conduction abnormality, imaging examination (CT or MRI) found that can explain the clinical manifestations of substantial lesions; (5) Patients who had been treated with riluzole or edaravone within 3 months before enrollment; (6) patients with a history of spinal surgery after the onset of ALS; (7) aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 1.5 times the upper limit of the normal reference value, or blood muscle (SCR) >; Upper limit of normal reference value; (8) Patients with other serious primary diseases of the nervous system, heart, lung, hematopoietic system or endocrine system and psychosis; (9) Suspected or have a history of alcohol and drug abuse; (10) Pregnant women or lactating women, subjects of reproductive age (including male subjects with heterosexual behavior and their female partners with fertility potential) have pregnancy plans or are unwilling to take effective contraceptive measures within 3 months from the beginning of screening to the end of drug withdrawal; (11) People who are known or suspected to have a history of allergy to the test drug and its excipients; (12) Screening participants who had participated in other clinical trials within the previous 3 months; (13) Those considered by the researcher to be unsuitable to participate in this clinical trial.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

ALSFRS-R scores
Changes in ALSFRS-R scores from baseline after 48 weeks of treatment, The ALSFRS-R scale (ALS Functional Rating Scale) includes 12 items including medulla oblongata function, limb function and respiratory function, with a total score of 48. The lower the score, the more serious the neurological function damage.

Secondary Outcome Measures

FVC%
Change in FVC% from baseline after 48 weeks of treatment
