Genomic Tests Seem to Be Better in Identifying Aggressive Prostrate Cancer


The traditional testing method involves clinical markers such as the PSA level or the Gleason Score.

Researchers could conclude that genomic tests are better at identifying high-risk prostate cancers based on the results obtained from a group of men part of the survey. Conventional tests had declared their cancer low-risk, while the genomic test predicted that their cancer was high-risk and vulnerable to spread beyond the prostate gland.

“What this [study] points us to is, beyond just the clinical markers that we’ve been using, we now have to start thinking about genomics too. I would tell patients that if they’re newly diagnosed [with prostate cancer]. They want to have a really in-depth conversation about how to get treated, they should ask their doctor if the Decipher [test] should be at least a part of their evaluation.” explains Fatima Karzai, M.D, Center for Cancer Research, NCI.
