Brief Summary:
RATIONALE Acupuncture may help relieve hot flashes in patients with prostate cancer
PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying how well acupuncture works in treating hot flashes in patients with prostate cancer who are undergoing androgen deprivation
PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying how well acupuncture works in treating hot flashes in patients with prostate cancer who are undergoing androgen deprivation
Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES
Determine the impact of acupuncture therapy on the frequency and intensity of hot flashes and the quality of life of patients with prostate cancer undergoing androgen deprivation
Determine if blood serotonin and urinary 5-HIAA are increased in patients treated with acupuncture
Determine if plasma calcitonin gene-related peptide and MHPG are reduced in patients with hot flashes due to androgen deprivation treated with acupuncture
Determine the ability of tongue diagnosis a traditional Chinese clinical assessment method to predict clinical and biological changes in these patients
Determine the effect of acupuncture on insomnia and loss of vitality caused by hot flashes in these patients
OUTLINE Patients undergo acupuncture for 30 minutes twice weekly for 4 weeks and then once weekly for an additional 6 weeks
Quality of life is assessed at baseline at weeks 2 4 6 and 10 and then at 6 weeks after completion of study treatment
After completion of study treatment patients are followed at 6 weeks
PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 25 patients will be accrued for this study
