Identifying aggressive prostate cancer foci using a DNA methylation classifier
Identifying aggressive prostate cancer foci using a DNA methylation classifier
Slow-growing prostate cancer (PC) can be aggressive in a subset of cases. Therefore, prognostic tools to guide clinical decision-making and avoid overtreatment of indolent PC and undertreatment of aggressive disease are urgently needed. PC has a propensity to be multifocal with several different cancerous foci per gland.
