Scientists test two simple urine methods to better predict prostate cancer
NCT ID NCT01441687
Summary
This study aims to find which of two urine collection methods better predicts prostate cancer biopsy results. Researchers are comparing expressed prostatic secretion (collected after prostate massage) with post-massage urine in 243 men undergoing prostate biopsies. The goal is to develop more accurate, less invasive tests to help doctors determine who needs biopsies.
