Could common heart drugs extend life in prostate cancer?

NCT ID NCT03819101

First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether two common, low-cost drugs—aspirin and atorvastatin (a cholesterol-lowering statin)—can help men with advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone therapy live longer. About 1,210 men will be randomly assigned to take one or both drugs or a placebo. The main goal is to see if these drugs improve overall survival.
