Overview

White Button Mushroom Sup for the Reduction of PSA in Pts With Biochemically Rec or Therapy Naive Fav Risk Prostate CA

Status:
Recruiting
Trial end date:
2023-08-31
Target enrollment:
0
Participant gender:
Male
Summary
This phase II trial studies how well white button mushroom supplement works in reducing prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in patients with prostate cancer that has come back (recurrent) or has favorable risk and has not undergone any therapy (therapy naive). PSA is a blood marker of prostate growth. White button mushroom supplement may affect PSA level, various parameters of immune system and levels of hormones that may have a role in prostate cancer growth.

study

- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: PSA failure defined
as:

- PSA of >= 0.2 ng/mL that has increased above nadir following prostatectomy, OR

- PSA increase of 2.0 ng/mL above post-therapy nadir if other primary local therapy
was used instead of prostatectomy

- NOTE: PSA value must be increasing based on 2 consecutive measurements taken at
least 2 weeks apart

- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Testosterone levels >
50 ng/dL

- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Received any number of
primary local therapies, defined as:

primary local therapy. Androgen deprivation therapy must have been completed > 6
months from day (D)1 of the study

cytotoxic chemotherapy must have been completed > 6 months from day (D)1 of the study

- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: No clinical or
radiographic evidence of metastatic disease within 2 months prior to day 1 of protocol
therapy. If metastatic disease is detected by positron emission tomography (PET)
imaging only patients are eligible as long as no metastatic disease is noted on
computed tomography (CT) scan (or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) and bone scan

- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Adenocarcinoma of
the prostate diagnosed =< 12 months of protocol screening and has elected active
surveillance as preferred management plan OR already on active surveillance

- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Clinical stage
T1c-T2a as defined below:

palpable

- T2a: Tumor involves one-half of one side or less

- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Gleason score =<
6 (grade group 1) or Gleason 3+4 (grade group 2)

- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Adequate biopsy
of at least 10 biopsy cores

- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: No prior therapy
for prostate cancer defined as:

- Local therapy including surgery , radiation or focal therapy (cryoablation, HIFU,
light)

- Systemic therapy (hormonal, immunotherapy, targeted, chemotherapy). Subjects who
have used 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (e.g. finasteride or dutasteride) > 6
months prior to D1 of protocol therapy will be allowed

- Platelets > 100,000 /mm^3 (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)

- Hemoglobin > 8 g/dL (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)

androgen derivation therapy lasting > 24 months or within 6 months prior to day 1 of
protocol therapy

- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Neoadjuvant/adjuvant
chemotherapy within 6 months prior to day 1 of protocol therapy

- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Prior therapy for

- Known history of allergic reaction to mushrooms

- Clinically significant uncontrolled illness

- Active infection requiring treatment

- Uncontrolled congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmia

- History of other primary non-skin malignancy within previous 2 years unless treated
with curative intent and in remission

- Any other condition that would, in the Investigator?s judgment, contraindicate the
patient?s participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns with clinical
study procedures
