研究概览

简要总结

RATIONALE: Lycopene, a substance found in tomatoes, may lower prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and slow or prevent the development of prostate cancer.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of lycopene in treating patients who have asymptomatic metastatic prostate cancer and a rising PSA level.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the percentage of patients with asymptomatic androgen-independent metastatic prostate cancer and an elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level who sustain a decline in PSA after 4 months of treatment with lycopene.

Secondary

  • Determine the response duration of PSA decline in patients treated with this therapy.
  • Determine the time to the first consistent PSA increase in patients treated with this therapy.
  • Determine whether a decline in PSA coincides with evidence of disease regression on physical examination or radiographic assessment in patients treated with this therapy.
  • Determine the adverse event profile of this therapy in these patients.
  • Determine the factors that motivate prostate cancer patients to enroll in a nutritional-based therapy study.

Experimental

Patients receive oral lycopene twice daily on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days for at least 4 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months until disease progression and then every 6 months for up to 5 years.

干预措施: lycopene (Dietary Supplement)
