Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The North Carolina-Louisiana Prostate Cancer Project is a population-based case-only study of over 2,000 men newly diagnosed with prostate cancer designed to address racial differences in prostate cancer aggressiveness and survival through a comprehensive evaluation of social, individual, and tumor level influences on prostate cancer aggressiveness. Project 3 specifically aims to examine nutritional modulation of prostate cancer aggressiveness using dietary assessment and biomarker-based data on dietary factors.
