- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: No clinical or radiographic evidence of metastatic disease within 2 months prior to day 1 of protocol therapy. If metastatic disease is detected by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging only patients are eligible as long as no metastatic disease is noted on computed tomography (CT) scan (or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) and bone scan
- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Adenocarcinoma of the prostate diagnosed =< 12 months of protocol screening and has elected active surveillance as preferred management plan OR already on active surveillance
THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Clinical stage T1c-T2a as defined below:
- T1c: Tumor identified by needle biopsy found in one or both sides, but not palpable
- T2a: Tumor involves one-half of one side or less
- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Gleason score =< 6 (grade group 1) or Gleason 3+4 (grade group 2)
- THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: Adequate biopsy of at least 10 biopsy cores
THERAPY NAIVE FAVORABLE RISK PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 2) ONLY: No prior therapy for prostate cancer defined as:
- Local therapy including surgery , radiation or focal therapy (cryoablation, HIFU, light)
- Systemic therapy (hormonal, immunotherapy, targeted, chemotherapy). Subjects who have used 5-alpha reductase inhibitor (e.g. finasteride or dutasteride) > 6 months prior to D1 of protocol therapy will be allowed
- Platelets > 100,000 /mm^3 (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)
- Hemoglobin > 8 g/dL (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)
- Aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, < 3 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)
- Total bilirubin < 2 x ULN (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)
- Creatinine < 2 x ULN (within 28 days prior to day 1 of protocol therapy)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Other concomitant investigational anti-cancer therapy/ vaccines/biologics, corticosteroids with > 10 mg of prednisone equivalent dose
- Therapy with mushroom supplements within last 3 months of randomization
- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Neoadjuvant/adjuvant androgen derivation therapy lasting > 24 months or within 6 months prior to day 1 of protocol therapy
- BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy within 6 months prior to day 1 of protocol therapy
BIOCHEMICALLY RECURRENT PROSTATE CANCER COHORT (COHORT 1) ONLY: Prior therapy for recurrent prostate cancer (unless given as a component of attempted curative salvage treatment including salvage radiation therapy, and completed > 6 months before day 1 of protocol therapy):
- Chemotherapy
- Androgen deprivation therapy
- Immunotherapy
- Targeted therapy
- Known history of allergic reaction to mushrooms
- Clinically significant uncontrolled illness
- Active infection requiring treatment
- Uncontrolled congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmia
- History of other primary non-skin malignancy within previous 2 years unless treated with curative intent and in remission
- Any other condition that would, in the Investigator?s judgment, contraindicate the patient?s participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns with clinical study procedures
- Prospective participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, may not be able to comply with all study procedures (including compliance issues related to feasibility/logistics)

Active Comparator
Arm IA (white mushroom extract)
Arm IB (clinical observation)
Arm IIA (white mushroom extract)
Arm IIB (active surveillance)
Patients receive white button mushroom extract PO BID on day 1. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for cycles 1-3 then every 12 weeks for cycles 4-6 (36 weeks) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients undergo clinical observation for 12 weeks. If PSA continues to increase, patients have the option to receive the white button mushroom extract as in arm IA.
Patients receive white mushroom extract PO BID on day 1. Treatment repeats every 12 weeks for 4 cycles (48 weeks) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients undergo active surveillance for 48 weeks.
