AB Nighttime fasting has been inconclusively associated with a reduced risk of cancer. Thepurpose of this study was to investigate this association in relation to prostate cancer risk. We examined data from 607 prostate cancer cases and 848 population controls who had never worked innight shift work from the Spanish multicase-control (MCC) study, 2008–2013. Through an interview,we collected circadian information on meal timing at mid-age. We estimated odds ratios (OR) and95% confidence intervals (CI) with unconditional logistic regression. After controlling for time ofbreakfast, fasting for more than 11 h overnight (the median duration among controls) was associatedwith a reduced risk of prostate cancer compared to those fasting for 11 h or less (OR = 0.77, 95%0.54–1.07). Combining a long nighttime fasting and an early breakfast was associated with a lowerrisk of prostate cancer compared to a short nighttime fasting and a late breakfast (OR = 0.54, 95% CI0.27–1.04). This study suggests that a prolonged nighttime fasting duration and an early breakfastmay be associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer. Findings should be interpreted cautiouslyand add to growing evidence on the importance of chrononutrition in relation to cancer risk
