Abstract
The impact of prostate cancer is substantial, and this fact is often cited as the reason for aggressive screening for and aggressive treatment of the disease. There are, of course, significant uncertainties regarding the efficacy of both prostate cancer screening and prostate cancer treatment [1]. Indeed, both are active areas of investigation, and the goal of reducing prostate cancer morbidity and mortality continues to elude modern medicine. An approach deserving consideration is the chemoprevention of prostate cancer.
