Elimination of Prostate Cancer Treatment Side Effects Using a Nutraceutical

March 6, 2025 updated by: Optimal Health Research

Alleviating Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) + External Beam Radiation (EBR) Treatment Side Effects in Prostate Cancer Patients

Does nutraceutical N-111 lower the number of side effects occurring during ADT + External Beam Radiation (EBR) prostate cancer treatment?

Study Overview

Status

Suspended

Conditions

Detailed Description

Researchers will compare nutraceutical N-111 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no active ingredients) and control group to see if N-111 works to alleviate side effects of prostate cancer treatment.

Participants will:

Take N-111 or a placebo by mouth every day for the duration of the ADT + EBR therapy. Fill out the self-evaluation reporting form weekly during EBR therapy and every three months during ADT therapy to assess their symptoms or lack of symptoms.

The patients will see a physician once a week during the EBR therapy and once every three months for the duration of the ADT therapy.
