NCT ID:
NCT06615752
Condition:
Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)
Conditions: Official terms:

Docetaxel
Quercetin
Conditions: Keywords:

phase II
Study type:
Interventional
Study phase:
Phase 1/Phase 2
Overall status:
Not yet recruiting
Study design:
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention model:
Sequential Assignment
Intervention model description:
This study includes a dose-escalation study and an expanded phase II study. For the
dose-escalation study, patients will be assigned to different dose levels in the order of
recruiting. For the expanded phase II study, patients will be randomly assigned to the
green tea plus quercetin group receiving green tea + quercetin + docetaxel, or the
placebo group receiving placebo + docetaxel.
Primary purpose:
Treatment
Masking:
Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Intervention:
Intervention type:

Intervention name:
green tea and quercetin + docetaxel
Description:
green tea and quercetin supplements in combination with docetaxel infusion
Arm group label:
green tea and quercetin
Other name:

Intervention type:
Drug
Intervention name:
Placebo + docetaxel
Description:
Placebo will be given along with docetaxel chemotherapy
Arm group label:
placebo
Other name:
Placebo
Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out if taking natural products green tea and
quercetin along with docetaxel chemotherapy improves the therapy of advanced prostate
cancer, i.e., metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). It will also learn
about the safety of this combination.
Researchers will compare green tea plus quercetin to a placebo (a look-alike substance
that contains no drug) in combination with docetaxel to see if green tea and quercetin
works to improve the therapeutic effect of docetaxel.
