  • You can take multivitamins or vitamin supplements, but they cannot contain any selenium or vitamin E. We will give you and your spouse/companion a special Multivitamin that has no selenium or vitamin E. The Multivitamin will be free of charge. The amount of vitamin E and selenium taken by each participant, beyond that which you may be taking in your food intake, has to be as similar as possible so that we can see whether selenium and vitamin E can prevent prostate cancer. We ask all participants not to take additional selenium and vitamin E. Let your Study Site staff know if you are taking any kind of additional supplements.

  • If you get prostate cancer you will stop taking the Study Supplements. You will have the option of continuing to receive the special Multivitamins free of charge. If you get any other kind of cancer, you are welcome to remain on the study. If you do leave the study, we will ask you to keep making clinic visits each year and/or to respond to phone calls from the SELECT staff.
