NCT04731844 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
Curcumin and Piperine in Patients on Surveillance for Monoclonal Gammopathy, Smoldering Myeloma or Prostate Cancer
Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

Linked outcomes
To estimate the proportion of participants achieving a disease-specific response following curcumin and piperine supplementation administered at a dose of 2gm/10mg(2 tablets) orally twice daily for up to 12 months. For patients with early-stage prostate cancer, response was defined as ≥50% decrease in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) from baseline, confirmed at least 4 weeks apart. For patients with MGUS or low-risk SMM, response was defined per International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria as at least a partial response (≥50% reduction in serum M-protein). The overall response rate equals the number of participants achieving disease-specific response divided by total number analyzed.
Proportion of participants who remained free from disease progression or death from any cause at 12 months after enrollment. Participants without documented progression or death by 12 months were considered progression-free.
Adverse events were summarized by grade and event type per CTCAE version 5.0. The safety population included all participants who received at least one dose of curcumin plus piperine. Results are presented as the number (percentage) of participants who experienced at least one adverse event.
