Incorporating a polygenic risk score into prostate cancer screening could enhance the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer that conventional screening may miss, according to results of ...
New recommendations prioritise multiparametric MRI, safer transperineal biopsy, and earlier escalation for high-risk prostate-specific antigen relapse.
Nearly all men with a polygenic risk score in the 90th percentile or above had a 10-year absolute risk for prostate cancer exceeding 3.8%. A polygenic risk score (PRS) identifies more patients with ...
A polygenic risk score was able to detect a high proportion of clinically significant prostate cancer. Cancer would not have been detected in 71.8% of patients with the use of PSA or MRI screening.
Can PSA derivatives reduce unnecessary prostate MRI after negative biopsy? Learn how simple markers may guide imaging ...
Investigators designed and externally validated a prostate cancer death prediction model for risk stratification of men at the point of PSA screening.

The Gleason score reliably predicts lethal prostate cancer for up to 25 years after diagnosis. High-grade prostate cancers progress rapidly in the short term, while lower grade tumors can still lead ...
