Abstract excerpt
Background and Objectives: Germline DNA damage response (DDR) gene mutations correlate with increased prostate cancer (PCa) risk and a more aggressive form of the disease. DDR mutation testing is recommended for metastatic PCa cases, while eligible information about the mutations' burden in the early-stage localized PCa is still limited. This study is aimed at the prospective detection of DDR pathway mutations in...
