Brief Summary:

Traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） has achieved some meaningful results in improving the symptoms and quality of life of cancer patients, but many research results need to be further verified by clinical trials with larger samples and better design.This study aims to investigate effectiveness and safety of Zhengyuan Capsules for cancer-related fatigue in patients with breast cancer.

Condition or disease

Cancer-related Fatigue

Intervention/treatment

Zhengyuan Capsules

Placebo contains 5%-10% Zhengyuan Capsule total mixed powder

Phase

PHASE4

Detailed Description:

By conducting multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical research to investigate effectiveness and safety of Zhengyuan Capsules for cancer-related fatigue in patients with breast cancer.This test choose the improvement of fatigue degree as key indicator, and choose the improvement both symptoms of patients and quality of life as second indicators. And last, the study will try to verify its safety and efficacy with some haematological indexs and reveal its mechanism from the perspectives of Cytokines and immunological indicators, so as to explore the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） in the treatment of CRF and support some high quality, internationally recognized clinical evidence.
