Effect of lycopene on prostate cancer among native African men: A protocol for an open-label randomized clinical trial in Tanzania

2024-10-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer and the fifth leading cause of death in men worldwide. The treatment of PCa depends on the clinical stage of the disease, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level, and histology. Lycopene is a bright red carotenoid found in tomatoes, which enhances apoptosis in prostate cells, but its effectiveness has not been studied in East African countries. Th...
