- Cervical Dysplasia
- Interventions
- Drug: di indolylmethane (DIM)Dietary Supplement: Red rice bran
- Registration Number
- NCT00212381
- Lead Sponsor
- New York Presbyterian Hospital
- Brief Summary
To determine if the use of oral Diindolylmethante (DIM), a marketed cruciferous vegetable based dietary supplement (Bioresponse-DIM), is associated with the regression of cervical dysplasia in otherwise healthy women.
- Detailed Description
To determine if the use of oral Diindolylmethane (DIM), a marketed cruciferous vegetable based dietary supplement (BioResponse-DIM®), is associated with the regression of cervical dysplasia in otherwise healthy women. Additionally, the study aims to see how the use of the BioResponse-DIM supplement correlates with cervical HPV colonization, and to asses the tolerability of daily DIM supplementation
