Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mosapride citrate dispersible tablet (MP) combined with Shugan Jieyu capsule (SGJY) in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD).Methods:From April 2018 to January 2019, FD patients from 10 hospitals including Renji Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Luohe Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Handan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Nanshi Hospital of Nanyang were selected for a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7) were used to assess depression and anxiety in FD patients, respectively. According to the random number table method, 200 FD patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into SGJY+ MP group and placebo+ MP group, with 100 patients in each group, and all the patients were given oral MP. The patients of the SGJY+ MP group and the placebo+ MP group were given oral SGJY or placebo on the basis of MP, respectively. The patients of both groups were treated continuously for 6 weeks. Total FD symptom scores, PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores, as well as efficiency and safety were evaluated after treatment. Independent samples t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 193 patients were included into the full analysis set with 94 cases in the SGJY+ MP group and 99 cases in the placebo+ MP group. A total of 183 patients completed the 6-week trial, including 89 cases in the SGJY+ MP group and 94 cases in the placebo+ MP group. A total of 198 patients were included in the safety analysis set, including 99 cases in the SGJY+ MP group and 99 cases in the placebo+ MP group.After treatment, the total FD symptom scores of the SGJY+ MP group and the placebo+ MP group were both lower than those of baseline before treatment (3.71±3.06 vs. 11.79±5.18 and 4.17±3.69 vs. 11.19±5.05), and the differences were both statistically significant ( t=-24.87 and -23.27, both P<0.001). The efficacy of the SGJY+ MP group was higher than that of the placebo+ MP group (86.5%, 77/89 vs. 74.5%, 70/94), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.69, P=0.030). The efficacy of patients with moderate-to-severe anxiety and depression in the SGJY+ MP group was both higher than that of patients in the placebo+ MP group (10/10 vs. 3/7, 85.0%, 17/20 vs. 8/14), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=5.66 and 5.33, P=0.017 and 0.010). The efficacy of patients with postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) subtype in the SGJY+ MP group was higher than that of patients in the placebo+ MP group (93.0%, 53/57 vs. 76.5%, 39/51), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=5.82, P=0.016). The PHQ-9 scores of patients with depression in both SGJY+ MP and placebo+ MP groups were lower than those at baseline before treatment (3.63±2.76 vs. 7.87±2.24 and 3.35±2.51 vs. 7.63±2.25), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-14.88 and -15.87, both P<0.001). There was no significant difference in proportion of depressed patients with a ≥50% reduction in PHQ-9 scores from baseline value between the SGJY+ MP group and the placebo+ MP group (60.2%, 50/83 vs. 62.8%, 54/86; χ2=0.05, P=0.825). The GAD-7 scores of anxious patients both the SGJY+ MP group and the placebo+ MP group were lower than the baseline value before treatment (3.27±2.57 vs. 7.09±2.08 and 3.86±2.49 vs. 6.84±1.66), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-13.30 and -11.47, both P<0.001). The proportion of anxious patients with a ≥50% reduction in GAD-7 scores from baseline in the SGJY+ MP group was higher than that of the placebo+ MP group (54.4%, 43/79 vs. 36.5%, 27/74), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.53, P=0.033). There were no serious adverse events in both the SGJY+ MP group and the placebo+ MP group during the treatment. There were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse events and adverse reactions during the treatment between the SGJY+ MP group and the placebo+ MP group (7.1%, 7/99 vs. 5.1%, 5/99, and 3.0%, 3/99 vs. 3.0%, 3/99, respectively; both P>0.05). Conclusion:SGTY can safely and effectively improve the efficacy of the prokinetic drugs in the treatment of FD symptoms, especially in FD patients with PDS subtype or with moderate-to-severe anxiety and with depression.
