Sponsor's own description
After successful screening, first the investigators first treat patients of severe alcoholic hepatitis with steroids for 7 days. Patients who are found to be unresponsive as per Lille's score \[\>0.45\] would be randomized into either placebo group or G-CSF group. Responders to steroids will continue on steroids for 28 days followed by 2 weeks of tapering. Non responders will be randomized to receive G-CSF for 28days.
