Brief summary
Primary Outcome Measures: Decrease in rate of serum PSA rise Secondary Outcome Measures: Adherence to treatment regimens Quality of life as assessed by FACT-P at baseline and at 12 months of treatment Modulation of serum testosterone,isoflavone metabolites, and cholesterol Estimated Enrollment: 27 Study Start Date: November 2003 Estimated Primary Completion Date: February 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed description
* Pretreatment evaluation included a complete medical history, physical examination (including digital rectal examination), serum PSA, free/total testosterone, lipids, serum isoflavone levels (genistein, daidzein, and equol), and assessment of quality of life (Functional Assessment of Cancer Treatment-Prostate, FACT-P questionnaire). * Whole blood will be obtained prior to initiation of the study to assess for DNA polymorphism. * Follow-up serum PSA levels to assess efficacy were obtained at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after initiation of treatment. * Medical history, physical examination, serum testosterone, lipids, isoflavone, and quality of life were assessed at 6 and 12 months after initiation of treatment.
Interventions
Ingested 47 mg of isoflavone in three 8 oz servings per day
