Low Carbohydrate Diets in Men with Recurrent Prostate Cancer: The CAPS2 Study

Quote:

Stephen Freedland joins Alicia Morgans to discuss the Carbohydrate and Prostate Study 2 (CAPS2), a randomized controlled trial of a 6-month low carbohydrate intervention on disease progression in men with recurrent prostate cancer. This study is part of a series of studies looking at the role of low carbohydrate diets in prostate cancer. The study involved taking men with rising PSA after failed surgery or radiation and randomizing them to a low carb diet, which is considered less than 20 grams of carbs a day. The primary outcome was to look at PSA doubling times. Dr. Freedland explains the details and implications of the study and why it is so important to pay attention to the emerging data that lifestyle, diet and exercise matter

Thanks for this update! Dr Freedland was at Duke until his move to Cedars-Sinai. Dr Westman was involved with his earlier studies, including the CAPS 1 discussed here. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/306...tman&from_pos=1
