Dietary Intervention With Phytochemicals and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Prostate Cancer Patients

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Interventions
Dietary Supplement: Prostate cancer, phytochemical and PUFA
Registration Number
NCT00433797
Lead Sponsor
University of Oslo
Brief Summary

We will study the effect of dietary intervention in patients with prostate cancer. Outcomes include serum PSA kinetics, as well as biomarkers of inflammation, antioxidant status, oxidative stress and oxidative damage in blood cells, plasma, urine and prostate tissues

Detailed Description

A total of 102 patients with localized prostate cancer will be included in the study. A the time of inclusion, the participants will be randomized to three groups.

The intervention groups includes; control group, tomato group and multi-diet group. The intervention period is three week and will be completed before prostatectomy or radiation therapy.

Biomarkers og inflammation includes: acute phase proteins, cytokines, chemokines and other inflammatory mediators. Biomarker of antioxidant status includes vitamin C, vitamin E, glutathione, carotenoids, total antioxidant capacity and total phenolics. Oxidative stress markers includes; malondialdehyde, isoprostanes, 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine, oxidized vitamin C, total lipidperoxides (d-ROM) and protein carbonyls.
