A Phase II Study to Evaluate the Effects of Docetaxel Plus Lycopene in Castration Resistant, Chemotherapy-Naïve Prostate Cancer Patients
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Docetaxel and Lycopene for Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate and 5 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 14 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This phase II trial evaluated the impact of giving docetaxel together with lycopene supplements in treating patients with hormone-resistant prostate cancer not previously treated with chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs, such as lycopene, to keep cancer from forming. Giving docetaxel together with lycopene may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer.
