Volunteers wanted for Research Study of men treated with hormone therapy

[Paul Edwards]

Prostate Cancer Hormone Therapy Study

 

Have you received hormone therapy treatment for prostate cancer?

 

If so, you may be eligible to join an American Cancer Society funded study to test a program designed to help people with changes to memory, thinking and concentration following hormone therapy for treatment of prostate cancer.

 

This study is done completely over the phone and internet and involves a brief screening to determine eligibility, 3 assessments/interviews, and 8 weeks of home-based computer use.

 

For more information, please contact Lisa Wu at +1 (212) 824-7805 or lisa.wu@mssm.edu

 

This study is approved by the Mount Sinai Institutional Review Board (GCO# 10-1352 approved through 6 April 2015)

 

 

Dr Lisa Wu is an Instructor in the Department of Oncological Sciences in the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sina, New York, one of the leading medical schools in the United States.  For a number of years Lisa's work has focused on research into quality of life issues around cancer patients experiencing cognitive difficulties after treatment.

 

Lisa already has a number of men from Australia participating in this study.  She is wanting to recruit more Australian men who have had hormone therapy treatment.

 

Given the time difference, sending an email to Lisa is probably the easiest way to make initial contact.
