The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of andrographolide 140 mg administered twice a day orally versus a placebo as a modifying treatment of the disease in patients with the progressive forms of Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
The principal outcome is to determine the efficacy, of andrographolide in retarding the progression of brain atrophy in patients with progressive forms of MS.
Evaluate the clinical efficacy of andrographolide 140 mg administered orally twice a day versus a placebo in:
Explore the pharmacokinetic of andrographolide 140 mg administered orally twice day in:
Determine the immunomodulatory effects of andrographolide 140 mg administered twice a day orally on lymphocyte populations in patients through the:
Population: adult patients, men and women with progressive forms of MS. The number of patients to be selected will be 68, to randomly assign 34 patients to each group.
