Prostate cancer hormone therapy may cloud thinking in seniors
NCT ID NCT00579072
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · 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.
