Common painkiller may prevent unnecessary prostate biopsies
NCT ID NCT05512754
Summary
This study is testing whether the over-the-counter anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen can lower PSA levels in men with elevated readings. High PSA can signal prostate cancer but is often caused by harmless inflammation. Researchers want to see if reducing inflammation with ibuprofen lowers PSA, which could help some men avoid unnecessary follow-up tests like biopsies.
