Summary

This early-stage study tested the safety of a single dose of an Angelica herbal supplement (AGN-Cogni.Q) in 12 men aged 40 and older with prostate cancer. Researchers checked heart health and blood tests for any side effects, and measured how the supplement's compounds move through the body. The goal was only to gather safety and drug-level data, not to treat the cancer.
