Summary

High concentrations of anti-oxidants in pomegranate seeds present a potential strategy to delay clinical prostate cancer progression and prolong the interval from primary treatment failure to hormonal ablation. This is a 48 month extension to the double-blind GUP-0205-1 study, to compare the effects of daily consumption of pomegranate liquid extract versus placebo on the absolute prostate-specific antigen (PSA) doubling time at the end of 12, 24, 36 and 48 months in male subjects who rolled-over from the GUP-0205-1 study.
