Selenium and Vitamin E (SELECT) in Prostate Cancer Prevention with Eric Klein, MD
In this episode, we dive deep into the intriguing relationship between vitamin E, Selenium, and the risk of prostate cancer. Taking center stage is the renowned SELECT trial from the early 2000s, which sparked numerous questions about this association. I'm honored to have Dr. Eric Klein, the study's primary author and former chair of urology at Cleveland Clinic, join me to shed light on this topic. Now engaged in groundbreaking genetic testing for various cancers with Grail, Dr. Klein's insights are invaluable.

Dr. Klein also shares his enriching experiences at Stanford University's Distinguished Korea Institute, a commendable program tailored for retirees focusing on wellness, community, and purpose. Plus, we journey through the transformation of prostate cancer treatment and understanding from the late 1980s to today.

This episode is brought to you by ExoDx™ Prostate Test for prostate tissue. The ExoDx™ Prostate Test is a simple, non-DRE, urine-based, liquid biopsy test indicated for men 50 years of age and older with a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) 2-10ng/mL, or PSA in the “gray zone” who may be considering a biopsy. The ExoDx Prostate test provides a risk score that determines a patient’s potential risk of clinically significant prostate cancer (Gleason Score ≥7). The test is included in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines and has been clinically validated at the cut-point of 15.6 with a 91% sensitivity and 92% negative predictive value, meaning there is less than a 9% chance of having aggressive prostate cancer below the validated cut-point of 15.6. Ask your urologist about the ExoDx Prostate Test.

Customer Reviews
Men’s Health
Thank you doctor Geo for your excellent work. The information shared is invaluable. My local urologist has shared very few details on prostrate cancer and treatments. Talks big picture and expects me to choose from traditional treatment options. Keep up the amazing work!
Prostate Health
I found Dr Geo (and this podcast) through the the Prostate Cancer Foundation website (pcf.org). So glad I did! Best podcast/info I’ve found about prostate health and prostate cancer. My husband was recently diagnosed and Dr Geo’s info has been invaluable. Love the way he presents too.
