A cohort study found that pre-radical prostatectomy levels greater than 20 ng/mL were associated with increased all-cause mortality risk and prostate cancer-specific mortality risk. Patients with a ...

Checking PSA levels too soon after prostate cancer surgery can lead to overtreatment, study suggests
After surgical removal of the prostate to treat prostate cancer, clinicians monitor prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels.
Among men with PSA persistence after radical prostatectomy, a higher preoperative PSA surprisingly was linked to lower mortality. Men with PSA persistence and preoperative PSA >20 ng/mL had 31% lower ...
Dr. Barry W. Goy explains how to interpret PSA levels after prostate cancer treatment and how to manage recurrence based on disease progression. Among patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer, ...
A meta-analysis involving more than 6000 men suggested that adding hormone therapy (HT) to radiation after radical prostatectomy improves overall survival (OS) in those with higher pre-radiation ...
Higher persistent PSA levels post-surgery were linked to increased mortality risk, with 8-year prostate cancer–specific mortality reaching 13.86% for a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≥ 1 ng/mL. The ...
After surgical removal of the prostate to treat prostate cancer, clinicians monitor Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels. Persistently elevated PSA levels indicate residual cancer and are linked to ...
As part of its Speaking Out video series, CURE talked to Dr. Brian Keith McNeil, on behalf of ZERO Prostate Cancer, about the role of PSMA-PET Imaging versus PSA. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a ...
Prostate cancer is common. About 200 in every 1,000 Australian men will be told they have prostate cancer by the age of 85. But the chance of dying from it is much lower: around 18 in 1,000 cases.
Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers in men, but when caught early, it’s highly treatable. For Vernon Owens, a routine check-up at UConn Health led to an early diagnosis that may have ...
