Correlation between dietary intake and occurrence of prostate cancer has gained significant support in recent years. Although a direct correlation has yet to be proven between inflammation and prostate cancer, chronic or recurrent inflammation has been hypothesized to be the major predisposing factor for this disease. The authors have been studying Zyflamend, a novel herbal anti-inflammatory mixture, as a potential chemopreventive agent in a phase 1 trial for patients diagnosed with prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia. They report the results of the first patient who has completed the 18-month study in which 24 patients were assigned to a cohort and placed on successive herbal supplement regimen starting with Zyflamend alone.
