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 ...
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.
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 ...
New recommendations prioritise multiparametric MRI, safer transperineal biopsy, and earlier escalation for high-risk prostate-specific antigen relapse.
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.
A new urine-based test improved prostate cancer detection - including detecting more aggressive forms of prostate cancer - compared to traditional models based on prostate serum antigen, or PSA, ...
