That does not seem to be the case for coQ10[1]. With coQ10, it's only effective at a therapeutic level which entails higher doses[2].

Vitamin E as α-tocopherol has been associated with increased prostate cancer[3]. Natural tocopherols rich in γ-T, γ-TmT, or similar tocopherol mixtures show more promise for cancer applications[4].
