Akkermansia Muciniphilia and Metabolic Side Effects of ADT (NCT05802121)
The Role of Akkermansia Muciniphilia in Combating the Metabolic Effects of Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Men With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The overriding objectives of this study are: 1. Primary outcomes: 1. To confirm that administration of oral acetate increases the proportion of A. muciniphilia in the stool samples of patients with metastatic, castration-sensitive prostate cancer compared to a standard of care arm. 2. To confirm tolerability and assess for side effects of oral acetate supplementation. 2. Secondary outcomes: 1. To determine if increased counts of A. muciniphilia correlate with improved metabolic parameters and improved bone health.
