Folate Study in Men With Advanced Prostate Cancer (NCT06536374)
A Phase II, Open Label, Randomized Controlled Pilot Study Evaluating Trimethoprim in Patients Commencing Androgen Deprivation Therapy for Prostate Cancer
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The researchers hope to learn if Trimethoprim, 150mg taken daily for 3 months, is a safe and effective way to reduce folate levels at time of Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) in men with advanced prostate cancer. This study will help find out what effects, good and/or bad, this drug has on people who take it and on its effect on the disease. The safety of this drug in humans has been tested in prior research studies; however, some side effects may not yet be known.
