Phase II Clinical Study of Noni Extract in Men With Very Low Risk or Low Risk Prostate Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of Noni extract in men diagnosed with
very low risk or low risk prostate cancer


Inclusion Criteria:

1. Men with a diagnosis of very low risk (<5% risk of disease relapse after primary
treatment, criteria; cT1c, Gleason <6, PSA < 10 ng/mL, fewer than 3 positive biopsy
cores < 50% cancer in any core, PSA density < 0.15 ng/mL/g); low risk (10% risk of
disease relapse after primary treatment, criteria; cT1-2a, Gleason <6, PSA < 10 ng/mL)
prostate cancer

2. Very low risk and low risk groups will be confirmed by Oncotype DX prostate cancer
test and provided a Genomic Prostate Score (GPS)

3. 60 years of age and older (> 60 years) at the time of informed consent

4. No evidence of extraprostatic disease on 3T multiparametric pelvic MRI

5. No baseline PT/PTT abnormalities, coagulopathies, or who are on any blood thinners.

6. ECOG performance status 0−2

7. Participants must have normal organ and marrow function as demonstrated by the
following parameters being:

- complete blood count (CBC) - no clinically significant findings

- complete metabolic profile (CMP) - no clinically significant findings

- lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) - no clinically significant findings
