Summary

This study is testing a new blood test that may help men with low-risk prostate cancer avoid frequent, invasive biopsies. The test looks for signs of aggressive cancer in the blood. Researchers will follow 2,000 men for several years to see if the test can safely tell who needs a biopsy and who doesn't.
