简要总结
Hypothesis:
Sunphenon, a green tea extract containing 95% egcg, given daily as oral medication over a period of 18 months has anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging and clinical examination (EDSS and MSFC).
详细描述
This multicentric, national study investigates the efficacy and safety of EGCG in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.
