"We found a sizeable and statistically significant uptick in compliance with genetic testing and compliance with post-test genetic counseling in patients who underwent testing after the implementation of the standardized protocol," says Siddharth Ramanathan.

"It will only be when the indications for focal therapy are expanded to higher-grade and larger tumors that we will begin to learn about the true efficacy of this approach," writes Badar M. Mian, MD.

Treatment with rucaparib reduced risk of imaging-based progression or death by half in men with BRCA-altered metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

"We found that if the patient has normal IsoPSA, he has only 1% of risk of developing clinically significant prostate cancer in a median follow-up time of 18 months," says Nour Abdallah, MD.

The GPS test uses a 17-gene signature to predict disease aggressiveness and help guide treatment decisions for patients with localized prostate cancer.

"The reason that we really focus on prostate cancer is because it's amenable to early screening. Early detection is key in cure," says Janet Kukreja, MD, MPH, FACS.

IsoPSA is included in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Prostate Cancer guidelines for early detection of the disease.
