Prostate-specific antigen and prostate cancer: prediction, detection and monitoring

TL;DR: Testing for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has profoundly affected the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer and has created controversy over whether the authors are now diagnosing and treating insignificant cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strategy for detection of prostate cancer based on relation between prostate specific antigen at age 40-55 and long term risk of metastasis: case-control study.

TL;DR: Measurement of PSA concentration in early midlife can identify a small group of men at increased risk of prostate cancer metastasis several decades later, and three lifetime PSA tests are probably sufficient for at least half of men.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prostate specific antigen concentration at age 60 and death or metastasis from prostate cancer: case-control study

TL;DR: Though men aged 60 with concentrations below the median (≤1 ng/ml) might harbour prostate cancer, it is unlikely to become life threatening and such men could be exempted from further screening, which should instead focus on men with higher concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-Term Prediction of Prostate Cancer Up to 25 Years Before Diagnosis of Prostate Cancer Using Prostate Kallikreins Measured at Age 44 to 50 Years

TL;DR: A single PSA test at age 44 to 50 years predicts subsequent clinically diagnosed prostate cancer, which raises the possibility of risk stratification for prostate cancer screening programs.
