Summary

This study looked at whether a drug called OPC could lower AGE levels in men with prostate cancer who are receiving hormone therapy (androgen deprivation therapy). AGEs are substances that can build up in the body and may cause health problems. The study planned to enroll 41 participants but was stopped early. The main goal was to see if OPC could reduce AGE levels by at least 30% in half of the participants.
