First seen Feb 04, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study follows 200 men with low-risk prostate cancer who are on active surveillance (monitoring instead of immediate treatment). Researchers want to see if men with a higher genetic risk for prostate cancer are more likely to have their cancer progress over time. The goal is to better understand how genetic factors influence the disease, which could lead to more personalized care in the future.
