Relative 8q gain predicts disease‐specific survival irrespective of the <i>TMPRSS2‐ERG</i> fusion status in diagnostic biopsies of prostate cancer

16 May 2011

Abstract excerpt

Screening tools have greatly improved prostate cancer (PCa) detection, but the disease course is heterogeneous, and standard clinicopathological parameters do not fully discriminate aggressive from indolent tumors. To evaluate the prognostic value of the TMPRSS2-ERG fusion gene combined with chromosome arm 8q relative gain in diagnostic biopsies of PCa, we studied a consecutive series of 200 diagnostic needle...
