Isoflavones and Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Localized Prostate Cancer
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Prostate Cancer
In brief
RATIONALE: Eating a diet high in soy foods may slow the progression of some types of cancer. Isoflavones are compounds found in soy food that may slow the growth of prostate cancer cells and prevent further development of prostate cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Giving isoflavones together with radiation therapy may be an effective treatment for prostate cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving isoflavones together with radiation therapy works in treating patients with localized prostate cancer.
