SELECT National Participant Advisory Board
The SELECT National Participant Advisory Board (NPAB) is made up of 10 men from a
variety of study sites in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico who participate
in SELECT. This Board was activated in July 2003. These 10 participants were chosen
to be a member of the NPAB because of their support and dedication to the prevention
of prostate cancer and for their individual business and personal backgrounds.
Mission Statement
The members of the National Participant Advisory Board (NPAB) have been chosen to represent
more than 32,000 men across North America who are voluntary participants in SELECT, a prostate
cancer prevention trial sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Our mission is to
make recommendations, assist and advise SELECT through review and suggested revision of procedures
and materials that promote participant adherence and ensure the satisfactory completion of this
important clinical trial.

How to Become a Member of the NPAB

If you are a participant and would like to be considered for membership, contact your local study site staff.
