Conditions

Prostate Adenocarcinoma

Summary

This is a Phase 2, randomized two-armed, multi-site study of 138 patients with metastatic castrate sensitive prostate adenocarcinoma. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive the fasting mimicking diet, or usual diet. All patients will receive standard of care treatment for their prostate cancer. The fasting mimicking diet will be consumed for 5 days per month for a total of 6 months and will be monitored by trained research dietitians.This study aims to examine the effects of a fasting mimicking diet (5 days per month eating L-Nutra products only for 6 months) vs. usual diet on response to cancer treatment of metastatic castrate sensitive prostate adenocarcinoma.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Men with diabetes who are not on stable doses of antihyperglycemic medication for at least 6 months and without physician consent that they may safely hold antihyperglycemic medication during the 5 days of FMD
* Regularly practicing a fasting diet that in the opinion of the study physician would impact study participation

Study Plan

Fasting Mimicking Diet

EXPERIMENTAL

Intermittent fasting using a fasting mimicking diet

  • BEHAVIORAL:

    Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD)

    Description:

    Consume the FMD (Xentigen, L-Nutra, Los Angeles, CA) for 5 days every monthly cycle for 6 cycles total in 6 months.

Standard Anti-Cancer Diet

PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Standard Anti-Cancer Diet

  • BEHAVIORAL:

    Standard Anti-Cancer Diet

    Description:

    Will receive standard of care diet and exercise recommendations from the study dietitian. The diet advice will be consistent with the American Cancer Society for cancer survivors and exercise recommendation of a goal of 150 minutes/week of cardiovascular exercise and weight resistance training at least twice a week.
