Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:The first stage:

Subjects who meet all of the following criteria will be enrolled in the study:

1. Age is 18 and 60 years old, gender is unlimited;

2. Clinically diagnosed as hepatocyte injury type DILI patients or CHB patients infected
with HBV for more than 6 months, the subject population is defined as follows:

- Grade 1/2 DILI patients: refer to the "Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment
of Drug-induced Liver Injury, 2015 edition", Drug-induced liver injury refers to
the liver injury induced by various kinds of prescribed or over-the-counter
chemical drugs, biological agents, traditional Chinese medicine, natural drugs,
health care products, dietary supplements and their metabolites and even
auxiliary materials; (1) The patient presented with elevated serum ALT, ALP, GGT,
and TBil; (2) Liver ultrasound has no obvious changes or only mild enlargement;
(3) After tracing the history of suspected drug application and other causes of
liver injury, necessarily, the patients take other measures such as liver biopsy
to confirm the diagnosis of DILI; (4) Clinical classification is hepatocyte
injury type (defined as ALT ≥3 ×ULN and R value ≥5, R value = [ALT / ULN]÷ [ALP /
ULN]); (5) Severity level is level 1 or level 2 (where level 1 is defined as:
TBil < 2.5 ×ULN and INR <1.5, Accompanied with or without accompanying clinical
symptoms; Level 2 is defined as: TBil ≥2.5×ULN, Or, although without elevated
TBil but with INR ≥1.5, Severe clinical symptoms).

- CHB patients: refer to the "Chronic hepatitis B Prevention Guidelines (2019
edition)", screening period can provide etiological evidence (HBsAg positive and
/ or HBV DNA positive) or clinical or pathological evidence (liver tissue biopsy
results) that hepatitis B virus infection for more than 6 months;

-glutamyl-transpeptidase (GGT), TBil, albumin, and prothrombin time] is not more than
90 days;

5. Subjects (including their partners) are willing to voluntarily take effective
contraception within 6 months from the screening period until the last trial drug was

Subjects who meet all of the following criteria will be enrolled in the study:

1. Age is 18 and 60 years old, and gender is unlimited;

2. Patients with a clinical diagnosis of hepatocellular injury-type DILI or patients with
HBV infection for more than 6 months, the subject population is defined as follows:

- Grade 2 / 3 DILI patients: refer to the Guidelines for the Diagnosis and
Treatment of Drug-induced Liver Injury (2015 edition). Drug-induced liver injury
refers to the liver injury induced by various kinds of prescribed or

ALP, GGT, and TBil; (2) Liver ultrasound has no obvious changes or only mild
enlargement; (3) After tracing the history of suspected drug application and
other causes of liver injury, necessarily, the patients take other measures such
as liver biopsy to confirm the diagnosis of DILI; (4) Clinical classification is
the hepatocyte injury type (defined as ALT ≥3×ULN with an R value ≥5.0, R value =
[ALT / ULN]÷ [ALP / ULN]); (5) The Severity level is Level 2 or Level 3 (where
Level 2 is defined as: TBil ≥2.5×ULN, Or, although without elevated TBil but with
INR ≥1.5, Clinical symptoms are aggravated; Level 3 is defined as a TBil ≥5×ULN,
With or without an INR ≥1.5, Clinical symptoms worsen to require
hospitalization).

- CHB patients: refer to the "Chronic hepatitis B Prevention Guidelines (2019
edition)", screening period can provide etiological evidence (HBsAg positive and
/ or HBV DNA positive) or clinical or pathological evidence (liver tissue biopsy
results) that hepatitis B virus infection for more than 6 months;

3. Subject serum ALT: 5~20 × upper limit of normal value (ULN), TBil: <10 × ULN;

4. DILI patients: the abnormal duration of liver biochemical indexes [ALT, AST, ALP, γ
-glutamyl-transpeptidase (GGT), TBil, albumin, and prothrombin time] is not more than
90 days;

5. Subjects (including their partners) are willing to voluntarily take effective
contraception within 6 months from the screening period until the last trial drug was
given;

6. Subjects can sign the informed consent and comply with the requirements of the
protocol; If the subject cannot sign the informed consent, it shall be signed by the
legal guardian or witness who required by regulations.

The third stage:

1. Age is 18 and 70 years old, gender is unlimited;

2. Referring to the "Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Liver Failure (2018
edition)" for patients diagnosed with Acute on chronic Liver Failure , TBil ≥5×ULN, 4
weeks with hepatic encephalopathy (grade 1-2) or ascites (grade 1-2) before screening
period, and 5≤ AARC score≤10 (AARC rating of grade I-II);

3. Subjects (including their partners) were willing to voluntarily take effective
contraception within 6 months from the screening period until the last trial drug was
given.

4. Subjects can sign the informed consent and comply with the requirements of the
