Ibuprofen may tame high PSA, study hopes to cut unnecessary biopsies
NCT ID NCT05512754
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether the common anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen can reduce elevated PSA levels in men. High PSA often leads to prostate biopsies, but inflammation can falsely raise PSA. The trial enrolls 200 men with PSA over 3 ng/mL and no known prostate cancer. Participants take ibuprofen or a placebo, and researchers measure PSA changes and urinary symptoms over time.
