Progression Rate of MSA Under EGCG Supplementation as Anti-Aggregation-Approach

Double-blind, Randomised, Placebo-controlled Parallel Group Study to Investigate the Effect of EGCG Supplementation on Disease Progression of Patients With Multiple System Atrophy (MSA)

To assess the efficacy of EGCG vs. Placebo to reduce the progression in the motor examination (ME) of the Unified MSA Rating Scale (UMSARS-ME) from V1 to V7, (80% power, 5% P-level, 50% effect size, i.e. an expected mean yearly UMSARS-ME increase of 3.9 under verum treatment compared to 7.8 ± 6.8 (mean ± standard deviation) under Placebo-treatment.

To assess the efficacy of EGCG vs. Placebo to reduce the progression from V1 to V7 in UMSARS total score

To assess the efficacy of EGCG vs. Placebo to reduce the progression from V1 to V7 in clinical global impression

To assess the efficacy of EGCG vs. Placebo to reduce the progression from V1 to V7 in global and regional cerebral atrophy (3D MP-RAGE MRI volumetry, 3D FLAIR)

To assess the efficacy of EGCG vs. Placebo to reduce the progression from V1 to V7 in global and regional cerebral iron deposition in pons and striatum (T2* MRI)

Clinical safety and tolerability of EGCG (physical and neurological examination, laboratory parameters, adverse events, vital signs, drop-out rates, survival rates and survival time)

To assess any effect of EGCG vs. Placebo on the evolution of the above mentioned parameters during the wash-out phase (from V6 to V7) to explore possible symptomatic effects.

To assess the efficacy of EGCG vs. Placebo to reduce the progression from V1 to V7 in Albumine, total protein, ferritin, iron, transferrin

A database/ repository will be constructed for future research, analysis, and recruitment. De-identified study subjects' genetic information and their responses to pain and pain medications, side-effects will be included in the database. Blood specimens will be included in the repository for exploring potentially important SNPs and biomarkers in future. No patient identifiers will be included in the repository and there will be a confidential (access limited to investigators only) code or link between the repository/database and other information about the participant.
