Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: The general aim is to understand the interaction of prostate medical therapies and gut microbiota. Main objective is to investigate how prostate medical therapies (5-ARI, ADT) affect gut microbiota composition.;Secondary Objective: To investigate the mechanism of how hormonal therapies (5-ARI, ADT) affect metabolic changes within the gut and systemic circulation., To investigate how the gut microbiota affects a patient’s response to 5-ARI treatment (PSA response and reduction in prostate size) in men with BPH., To investigate how the gut microbiota affects a patient’s response to GnRH agonists/antagonists (PSA response) in men with prostate cancer.;Primary end point(s): change of gut microbiota signature after two months of prostate medication (5-ARI, LhRH-analog/antagonist)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s):change of gut microbiota metabolism after two months of prostate medication (5-ARI, LhRH-analog/antagonist);Secondary end point(s):PSA response to 5-ARI after 2 and 6 months of therapy;Secondary end point(s):prostate volume change to 5-ARI treatment after 2 and 6 months of therapy;Secondary end point(s):PSA response LhRH-analog/antagonist after 2 and 6 months of therapy
