Proper Citation: Complementary and Alternative Medicine for Urological Symptoms (RRID:SCR_007131)

Description: Randomized, multicenter, double blind, placebo controlled clinical trial of phytotherapy for benign prostate symptoms among men. The CAMUS trial will test Saw palmetto in about 369 men. Men who decide to be part of the CAMUS trial will be given one out of two possible treatments at random. One out of every two men would get an inactive placebo treatment. One out of every two men would get Saw palmetto pills. This kind of scientific study is the best way to find out if the plant extracts really work to prevent men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) from getting worse. During the study, men will not know which of the two treatments they are assigned to. They will be followed very closely by a study team every 12 weeks to see how they are doing. Men in the CAMUS trial will be studied over 72 weeks. Ten clinical centers will participate in the trial. They are located at: Columbia University, NY, NY; New York University, NY, NY; University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, Texas; University of Colorado, Denver, CO; Washington University, St. Louis, MO; Yale University, New Haven, CT; Queens University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada; Northwestern University, Chicago, IL; University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD; University of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, CA.
