Title
Risk of Prostate Cancer Death in the PLCO Cohort Based on a Four Kallekrein Panel
Summary
Baseline PSA has long been used as a screening and risk assessment tool in men with suspected or confirmed prostate cancer. The goal of this project is to evaluate the association between a four kallikrein panel (total PSA, free PSA, intact PSA, and human kallikrein-related peptidase 2) and prostate cancer mortality for patients in the PLCO Cohort and compare the predictive power of the four kallikrein score with that of baseline PSA.
Aims
- Evaluate the predictive power of a four kallikrein panel for prostate cancer specific mortality
