简要总结
RATIONALE: The use of lycopene, a substance found in tomatoes, or omega-3 fatty acid nutritional supplements may keep cancer from growing in patients with prostate cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying lycopene to see how well it works compared to omega-3 fatty acids or a placebo in treating patients with stage I or stage II prostate cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Compare gene expression in normal prostate tissue (at baseline and after treatment) of patients with stage I or II adenocarcinoma of the prostate treated with lycopene vs omega-3 fatty acid nutritional supplements vs placebo.
Secondary
- Determine new candidate molecular targets for lycopene and omega-3 response pathways.
- Correlate baseline gene expression patterns, determined by cDNA array analysis, with self-reported dietary intake.
- Correlate gene expression patterns with progression or lack of progression at 12 months after study entry.
- Determine if lycopene or omega-3 supplements affect the incidence of tumor progression.

入选标准
- •DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
- •Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate meeting the following criteria:
- •Newly diagnosed disease
- •Small cell acinar type
- •Gleason score ≤ 6 with no pattern 4 or 5 histology
- •Gleason pattern 4 seen as a microfocus (< 2 mm in length) allowed
- •Stage I-II (T1 or T2a) disease

- •Patients meeting all of the eligibility criteria except for the aforementioned extended pattern biopsy within the past two years may enroll in the study if they have an extended pattern clinical biopsy scheduled no more than 6 weeks before beginning study treatment AND are willing to have an additional 4 biopsy cores
- •No more than 33% of biopsy cores positive
- •33% or more of biopsy cores positive due to microfoci of adenocarcinoma allowed
- •No more than 50% of the length of a tumor core involved by carcinoma
- •Watchful waiting planned as primary treatment strategy
- •Must have 3 serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level readings taken ≥ 2 weeks apart over the past year
- •PSA ≤ 10.0 ng/mL
- •PSA < 15 ng/mL in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia or prostatitis allowed
- •PSA doubling time ≥ 3 months
- •PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:
- •Life expectancy ≥ 3 months
- •ECOG performance status 0-2
- •No history of allergic reactions attributed to tomatoes, fish, soybean oil, gelatin capsules, or compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to lycopene (carotenoids) or fish oil (omega-3 fatty acids)

- •Ongoing or active infection
- •Symptomatic congestive heart failure
- •Unstable angina pectoris
- •Cardiac arrhythmia
- •Psychiatric illness or social situations that would limit study compliance
- •PRIOR CONCURRENT THERAPY:
- •No prior or concurrent treatment for prostate cancer, including surgery, radiation, hormonal therapy (e.g., leuprolide acetate, bicalutamide, flutamide, goserelin, megestrol, nilutamide, diethylstilbestrol/estrogen), chemotherapy, PC-SPES, or investigational agents
- •More than 4 weeks since prior and no concurrent lycopene, fish oil (omega-3 fatty acids), or any other preparation intended to supplement levels of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids
- •More than 4 weeks since prior and no concurrent finasteride, dutasteride, saw palmetto or any other herbal/nutritional preparation indicated to affect hormone levels
- •More than 1 month since prior nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors, and/or aspirin for > 7 days duration

结局指标
主要结局
Changes in Normal Prostate Tissue Gene Expression Between the Baseline and 3-month Biopsies in IGF -1 and COX -2
时间窗: baseline through 3 month
Comparisons of the change in deltaCT were between the placebo and Lycopene arms for IGF-1 and IGF-1R and between the placebo and fish oil arms for COX-2. Data in the table are mean changes in qRTPCR gene expression (normalized to GUSb) for IGF1, Cox2, and IGF1R.
