Summary

This study follows 3,000 men with early-stage prostate cancer who have chosen active surveillance (close monitoring instead of immediate treatment). The goal is to discover biological markers that can tell apart aggressive cancers from slow-growing ones. Researchers hope this will help men avoid unnecessary treatments while catching dangerous cancers early.
