In clinical practice, glucocorticoids have been considered in some cases of DILI, especially those with hyperbilirubinemia. However, the available evidence remains controversial and its quality is also very limited.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objectives:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To explore the efficacy and safety of glucocorticoids in patients with acute DILI and hyperbilirubinemia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Design:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled trial (RCT).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and analysis:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, 232 patients with acute DILI with hyperbilirubinemia will be enrolled, and then, randomly assigned at a ratio of 1:1 to the conventional treatment alone or combined with glucocorticoids groups. The primary endpoint is the improvement of DILI, which is defined as total bilirubin level decreased by 50% after treatment, at the 2nd week. Secondary endpoints include the improvement of DILI at the 4th week and rates of progressive liver injury, liver failure, liver transplantation, survival, and adverse events. As for exploratory endpoints, we will also identify the beneficial population and assess the changes of inflammatory factors following glucocorticoids treatment.<\/jats:p>\n
