简要总结

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of pomegranate polyphenol pills (POM-X) and a placebo (sugar pill) on prostatic oxidative stress. The placebo is a pill that looks like the POM-X pill but does not have an active ingredient.

详细描述

Subjects will receive POM-X or placebo pills daily for up to 4 weeks prior to undergoing radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. Biomarkers in the blood, urine, and prostate tissue will be assessed.
