Serum Calcium Levels Approaching the Upper Limit of Normal Can Predict Prostate Cancer Relapse to the Bone and Beyond in Patients Managed with Radiotherapy: Mature Data at 10 Years

2024-04-25

Abstract excerpt

The most important prognostic factors in curatively treated prostate cancer at the initial diagnosis are T and N stage, histological subtype, Gleason score, initial PSA, PSA density and percentage of core biopsy positivity. Newer, but non-standard prognostic factors are urine PCA3 and genetic markers of prostate cancer. A simple, but seemingly underestimated standard test is serum Calcium (Ca) level, which has bee...
