简要总结

The present study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Approximately 125 individuals will be screened, and considering a screening failure rate of 20%, at least 100 will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to receive either IP or placebo and will be assigned a unique randomization code. Each group will have not less than 40 completed participants after accounting for a dropout/withdrawal rate of 20%. The intervention duration for all the study participants is 90 days.
