Titel: Important lessons from a recent phase 1 clinical study of white button mushroom on
biochemically recurrent prostate cancer.
CV: Dr. Chen is recognized for his contributions in
the functional characterization of aromatase in breast
cancer and in the understanding of aromatase inhibitor
(AI) response in breast cancer treatment. Dr. Chen is
also known for his research on the demonstration of
anti-cancer properties of mushrooms, grape seed
extract, pomegranate, and blueberries against breast
cancer and prostate cancer. Importantly, he has
successfully translated his research findings into
several clinical trials, including a phase 1 clinical trial
of white button mushroom in patients with
biochemically recurrent prostate cancer. Dr. Chen has
served as the Chair of a 2007 Gordon Research
Conference on Hormone Action in Development & Cancer and the Chair of the Ninth
International Aromatase (2008) conference. Dr. Chen is an invited member of the
