Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)

New treatment option for Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)

Official title Green Tea and Quercetin in Combination With Docetaxel Chemotherapy in Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer Patients

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06615752

What this study is testing

What is green tea and quercetin + docetaxel?

green tea and quercetin + docetaxel is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mcrpc).

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
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.
