Green tea extract tested to keep prostate cancer in check
NCT ID NCT04300855
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a daily dose of green tea catechins (a natural compound) can prevent low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer from getting worse in men who are not receiving immediate treatment. Over 24 months, 115 men will receive either the green tea extract or a placebo. The goal is to see if the extract can delay or avoid the need for more aggressive treatments like surgery or radiation.
