简要总结
RATIONALE: Soy protein/isoflavones and venlafaxine may help relieve hot flashes in patients receiving hormone therapy for prostate cancer. It is not yet known whether soy protein/isoflavones are more effective than venlafaxine when given together or with a placebo in treating hot flashes.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying soy protein/isoflavones and venlafaxine to compare how well they work when given together or with a placebo in treating hot flashes in patients receiving hormone therapy for prostate cancer.
详细描述
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Assess the effect of soy protein/isoflavones and venlafaxine on the hot flash symptom severity score in patients undergoing hormonal manipulation for treatment of prostate cancer.
Secondary
- Assess the effect of soy protein/isoflavones and venlafaxine on quality of life of these patients.
- Monitor and assess the participant drop out rate.

结局指标
主要结局
Hot Flash Symptom Severity Score
时间窗: 12 weeks
The primary objective of this randomized trial is to assess the effect of soy and Venlafaxine on the hot flash symptom severity score in men undergoing hormonal manipulation for treatment of prostate cancer. Hot flash severity will be quantitated using the symptom diary (as the sum of the number of hot flashes (any number greater than or equal to 0) times their severity (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe)). The primary end point is the 12 week hot flash score relative to the baseline value (i.e., 100\*(12 week score)/baseline score). The range is 0 to infinity. Lower values represent a better outcome.

- Quality of Life(12 weeks)
