Trial Outcomes & Findings for Lycopene or Omega-3 Fatty Acid Nutritional Supplements in Treating Patients With Stage I or Stage II Prostate Cancer (NCT NCT00402285)

NCT ID: NCT00402285

Last Updated: 2016-01-01

Results Overview

Comparisons of the change in deltaCT were between the placebo and Lycopene arms for IGF-1 and IGF-1R and between the placebo and fish oil arms for COX-2. Data in the table are mean changes in qRTPCR gene expression (normalized to GUSb) for IGF1, Cox2, and IGF1R.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline through 3 month

Population: 1 ppt randomized to fish oil had un-evaluable COX-2 at 3 months.

Comparisons of the change in deltaCT were between the placebo and Lycopene arms for IGF-1 and IGF-1R and between the placebo and fish oil arms for COX-2. Data in the table are mean changes in qRTPCR gene expression (normalized to GUSb) for IGF1, Cox2, and IGF1R.
