  Purpose

RATIONALE: Aging may affect a person's lung function. Vitamin E and/or selenium may help prevent loss of lung function in older men receiving these drugs for the prevention of prostate cancer.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying vitamin E and/or selenium to see how well they work in preventing loss of lung function in older men enrolled on SELECT clinical trial SWOG-S0000.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Rate of decline of FEV1 over a 3-year period as assessed by pulmonary function testing (spirometry) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Cross-sectional assessment of FEV1 at 3 years post randomization [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Longitudinal and cross-sectional differences in FEV1 [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Differences in the effects of intervention based on current smoking dose or pack-years of exposure [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Graphical characterization of the shape of treatment response [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Effect of daily supplementation with selenium and vitamin E in a subgroup of current smokers as measured by oxidative stress biomarkers (e.g., urinary F2-isoprostanes) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Collection of blood samples for future investigation of additional markers of oxidative stress (e.g., plasma oxidized low-density lipoproteins) [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 3000
Study Start Date: June 2004
Estimated Primary Completion Date: July 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To test longitudinally whether the decrease in FEV_1 over 3 years is lower among men receiving daily supplementation with selenium compared to men receiving placebo on SELECT clinical trial SWOG-S0000.
  • To test longitudinally whether the decrease in FEV_1 over 3 years is lower among men receiving daily supplementation with both selenium and vitamin E compared to men receiving placebo.
  • To test cross-sectionally whether FEV_1 is higher at 3 years post randomization among men receiving daily supplementation with both selenium and vitamin E compared to men receiving placebo.
  • To test cross-sectionally whether FEV_1 is higher at 3 years post randomization among men receiving daily supplementation with selenium compared to men receiving placebo.

Secondary

  • To test longitudinally and cross-sectionally whether there is a difference in FEV_1 among men receiving daily supplementation with vitamin E compared to men receiving placebo.
  • To test longitudinally and cross-sectionally whether there is a difference in FEV_1 among men receiving daily supplementation with both selenium and vitamin E compared to men receiving selenium alone or vitamin E alone.
  • To evaluate the effect of daily supplementation with selenium and/or vitamin E in a subgroup of current smokers.
  • To characterize the shape of the early response of FEV_1 to supplement use in a subset of participants.
  • To evaluate whether the effect of daily supplementation with selenium and vitamin E in a subgroup of current smokers is mediated by the level of oxidative stress as measured by urinary F2-isoprostanes.
  • To collect blood samples to allow future investigation of additional markers of oxidative stress, including oxidized lipoproteins, to understand whether proposed mediated pathways indeed explain intervention effects.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Participants undergo pulmonary function testing by spirometer and complete a questionnaire on respiratory symptoms at baseline and then periodically for up to 3 years. Participants also undergo urine and blood sample collection for evaluation of oxidative stress biomarkers (e.g., urinary F2-isoprostanes and plasma oxidized low-density lipoproteins). Blood samples will be stored for future research studies.
