Lycopene is the predominant carotenoid in tomatoes and is responsible for their red color. There is substantial epidemiologic evidence that suggests a protective effect of increased tomato and/or lycopene consumption and the development of prostate cancer. Studies on a direct therapeutic effect of lycopene on treating established prostate cancer are more limited and have met with mixed results. This review summarizes the currently available studies of lycopene supplementation as a treatment of prostate cancer. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
