BuqiTongluo Granule for Ischemic Stroke, Stable Angina Pectoris, Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy with Qi Deficiency and Blood Stasis Syndrome: Rationale and Novel Basket Design

Conclusion: QDBS syndrome is a common phenotypic marker that was hypothesized to predict whether patients with multiple diseases would respond to this targeted therapy. No previous basket trial has assessed the potential efficacy of an herbal intervention for multiple diseases. The unique promise of the trial is its ability to exploit a disease phenotype to discover novel treatments for three diseases for which the root cause is unknown, complex, or multifactorial, and for which scientific understanding is insufficient to provide valid molecular targets.
