Prostate cancer hormone therapy may cloud thinking in seniors

NCT ID NCT00579072

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether hormone therapy (like Lupron or Casodex) changes thinking abilities in men aged 65 and older with prostate cancer. Researchers will compare cognitive function over time between men starting hormone therapy, those who have never had it, and those who have been on it for months to years. The goal is to understand potential side effects on memory and thinking, not to treat the cancer itself.
