Trial Information

Study of Serum 25(OH) D3 Level Variability in Response to Different Doses of Oral Vitamin D Supplementation in Prostate Cancer Patients


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- To examine the pattern of response of serum 25(OH) D3 levels following cholecalciferol
(vitamin D3) supplementation at four different oral doses in patients with prostate
cancer.

Secondary

- To examine the pattern of response of parathormone (PTH) following vitamin D3
supplementation in these patients.

- To assess the toxicity of vitamin D3 supplementation in men with prostate cancer.

Tertiary

- To track occurrence of infections, deep vein thrombosis, vascular events, and falls in
these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 4 treatment arms.

- Arm I: Patients receive 4,000 IU of oral cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) once daily.

- Arm II: Patients receive 6,000 IU of vitamin D3 once daily.

- Arm III: Patients receive 8,000 IU of vitamin D3 once daily.

- Arm IV: Patients receive 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 once daily. Treatment in all arms
continues for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
