Abstract:Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in American men after lung cancer. The current PCa diagnostic method, the serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, is not specific, thus, alternatives are needed to avoid unnecessary biopsies and over-diagnosis of clinically insignificant PCa. To explore the application of metabolomics in such effort, urine samples were collected from 386 male adults aged 44-93 years, including 247 patients with biopsy-proven PCa and 139 with biopsy-p… Show more
