研究概览
简要总结
The study is being done to see if a small daily dose of naltrexone (LDN, 3 mg pill) can help reduce tiredness (fatigue) in men with prostate cancer. All men in this study are being treated with hormone therapy (also called androgen deprivation therapy, or ADT). Some may also be taking newer hormone medicines such as apalutamide, daralutamide, enzalutamide, or abiraterone.
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to learn if low dose naltrexone can safely improve energy and reduce fatigue in men receiving these treatments.
Primary Objectives
- Characterize mitochondrial bioenergetics, inflammation and oxidative stress after ADT and the remediating effects of LDN.
- Assess the impact of low-dose naltrexone (LDN) on Cancer-related fatigue as measured by the FACIT-F questionnaire.
Secondary Objectives
- Evaluate quality of life (QOL) measures [Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P) on subjects receiving LDN.
- Evaluate safety and tolerability of LDN.
