Genetic Factors Associated with Prostate Cancer Conversion from Active Surveillance to Treatment

2021-08-31

Abstract excerpt

Men diagnosed with low-risk prostate cancer (PC) are increasingly electing active surveillance (AS) as their initial management strategy. While this may reduce the side effects of treatment for prostate cancer, many men on AS eventually convert to active treatment. PC is one of the most heritable cancers, and genetic factors that predispose to aggressive tumors may help distinguish men who are more likely to disco...
