Study Summary

This trial will test how well telmisartan works in treating prostate cancer in men.

Who is the study for?
Men over 18 with prostate cancer and a PSA level >1 ng/ml can join this trial. They must be stable on or likely to start standard treatments, able to monitor their blood pressure, consent themselves (or have someone who can), not need immediate treatment changes, and have normal or controlled high blood pressure that allows for telmisartan use.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This study is testing the safety of adding telmisartan to the usual prostate cancer treatments. Participants will either receive telmisartan alongside their standard care regimen or continue with just the standard care to see how well they tolerate the addition of telmisartan.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Telmisartan may cause dizziness due to low blood pressure, fatigue, nausea, and an increased risk of high potassium levels. It might also affect kidney function and could interact with other medications used for controlling blood pressure.
