Is anyone on this board aware of this study?

Very good, the study design looked interesting with the issue (finally) being dosage. The page says the study has been completed! Are the results posted?????

Cannot find them, but I cant find any results in any study that have been completed using Vit.C

Its odd that there appears to be some agreement that vit C is benificial however the dosage amount as you stated, that is in the description is the wild card, I can not find any final results on any of the study using Vit C. But i could be missing something.

It looks like the study only enrolled 8 patients.

I did a search on PubMed, and it doesn't seem as though it has been published. It is possible that the outcome was negative and that the results have been put into the file drawer.

If any one is interested, maybe he or she can follow up with Dr. David Schade of the University of New Mexico, as he is listed as the principal investigator.
