Phase 3 Multicenter Study Evaluating Oral Raphamin Compared to Placebo in Adults with Acute Bronchitis Aged 18 to 64

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating Raphamin in adults aged 18 to 64 years who have acute bronchitis symptoms lasting less than 72 hours. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial aims to determine if Raphamin can speed up symptom resolution, reduce disease severity, and prevent complications requiring antibiotics compared to placebo. The study includes both men and women during the seasonal period of acute respiratory viral infections. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either Raphamin or a placebo following a specific oral dosing schedule for 5 days. On the first day, participants take 8 tablets of Raphamin or placebo one tablet every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours total of 5 tablets, then one tablet three times spaced evenly throughout the day. From day 2 onwards, one tablet is taken three times daily. The study uses an electronic patient diary to record daily symptoms, and face-to-face visits are scheduled on days 1, 4, and 7, with a phone visit on day 14. Throughout the study, participants undergo physical exams, vital sign monitoring, pulse oximetry, and laboratory tests including blood counts and PCR for respiratory viruses. Symptom severity is assessed by the Bronchitis Severity Scale and the Integrative Medicine Outcome Scale. Quality of life is evaluated using the EQ-5D instrument. Safety is monitored through recording adverse events and any use of antibacterial medications or hospitalizations. The total duration of participation includes treatment and follow-up over 14 days.
