Brief Summary: Prostate cancer biochemical recurrence BCR occurs in 20-50 of patients following radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy Due to significant risk of side effects and uncertainty about the benefits physicians and patients are seeking alternatives to delay androgen deprivation therapy ADT for non-metastatic BCR Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids LCn3 mainly found in seafood and fatty fish have beneficial effects against prostate cancer in pre-clinical experimental studies and randomized clinical trials of intermediate prostate cancer outcomes The current observational evidence also supports testing LCn3 in prostate cancer patients LCn3 have beneficial effects on inflammation cardiovascular psychological and other outcomes contrasting sharply with ADT-associated side effects

Investigators propose to conduct a pilot randomized placebo-controlled trial to determine the effects over one year of an innovative LCn3 supplement 5g of omega-3-rich fish oil daily including 4g of monoglycerides eicosapentaenoic acid MAG-EPA in 40 men experiencing BCR or prostate cancer progression after a curative treatment

This project proposes a simple intervention by dietary supplementation that could eventually help to prevent or delay ADT-related side effects and thus could contribute to diminish the heavy individual and societal burden of prostate cancer The clinical data generated by this pilot trial will serve as basis for a larger-scale phase II clinical trial
