Journal ArticleDOI
The Influence of Finasteride on the Development of Prostate Cancer
Ian M. Thompson,Phyllis J. Goodman,Catherine M. Tangen,M. Scott Lucia,Gary J. Miller,Leslie G. Ford,Michael M. Lieber,R. Duane Cespedes,JN Atkins,Scott M. Lippman,Susie M. Carlin,Anne Ryan,Connie M. Szczepanek,John Crowley,Charles A. Coltman +14 more
TL;DR: Finasteride prevents or delays the appearance of prostate cancer, but this possible benefit and a reduced risk of urinary problems must be weighed against sexual side effects and the increased risk of high-grade prostate cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of Prostate Cancer among Men with a Prostate-Specific Antigen Level ≤4.0 ng per Milliliter
Ian M. Thompson,Donna K. Pauler,Phyllis J. Goodman,Catherine M. Tangen,M. Scott Lucia,Howard L. Parnes,Lori M. Minasian,Leslie G. Ford,Scott M. Lippman,E. David Crawford,John Crowley,Charles A. Coltman +11 more
TL;DR: Biopsy-detected prostate cancer, including high-grade cancers, is not rare among men with PSA levels of 4.0 ng per milliliter or less--levels generally thought to be in the normal range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of selenium and vitamin E on risk of prostate cancer and other cancers: the Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial (SELECT).
Scott M. Lippman,Eric A. Klein,Eric A. Klein,Phyllis J. Goodman,M. Scott Lucia,Ian M. Thompson,Leslie G. Ford,Howard L. Parnes,Lori M. Minasian,J. Michael Gaziano,Jo Ann Hartline,J.

TL;DR: Selenium or vitamin E, alone or in combination at the doses and formulations used, did not prevent prostate cancer in this population of relatively healthy men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of tamoxifen vs raloxifene on the risk of developing invasive breast cancer and other disease outcomes: the NSABP Study of Tamoxifen and Raloxifene (STAR) P-2 trial.
Victor G. Vogel,Joseph P. Costantino,D. Lawrence Wickerham,D. Lawrence Wickerham,Walter M. Cronin,Reena S. Cecchini,James N. Atkins,Therese B. Bevers,Louis Fehrenbacher,James L. Wade,Richard G. Margolese,Scott M. Lippman,Carolyn D. Runowicz,Patricia A. Ganz,Steven E. Reis,Leslie G. Ford,V. Craig Jordan,Norman Wolmark +17 more
TL;DR: Raloxifene is as effective as tamoxifen in reducing the risk of invasive breast cancer and has a lower risk of thromboembolic events and cataracts but a nonstatistically significant higher risk of noninvasive breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitamin E and the Risk of Prostate Cancer: The Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial (SELECT)
Eric A. Klein,Ian M. Thompson,Catherine M. Tangen,John Crowley,M. Scott Lucia,Phyllis J. Goodman,Lori M. Minasian,Leslie G. Ford,Howard L. Parnes,J. Michael Gaziano,Daniel D. Karp,Michael M. Lieber,Philip J. Walther,Laurence Klotz,J. Kellogg Parsons,Joseph L. Chin,Amy K. Darke,Scott M. Lippman,Gary E. Goodman,Frank L. Meyskens,Laurence H. Baker +20 more
TL;DR: Dietary supplementation with vitamin E significantly increased the risk of prostate cancer among healthy men in relatively healthy men.
