Clinical Trial Summary

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).

Description:

This multicentric, national study investigates the efficacy and safety of EGCG in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.
