Prevention of Prostate Cancer With Dutasteride in Case of High Grade PIN Neoplasia
- Registration Number
- NCT00780754
- Lead Sponsor
- Kaunas University of Medicine
- Brief Summary
Patients with diagnosis of HPIN were enrolled. Patients were randomized into two groups: dutasteride treatment group and watchful waiting strategy group. According to the study protocol the subjects would undergo 10 core biopsies after 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after randomization.
