Gene hunt: can DNA clues unlock better prostate cancer care?

NCT ID NCT02705846

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study follows over 4,000 men with prostate cancer, some who carry rare gene mutations (like BRCA) and some who don't. Researchers will compare survival and cancer progression between the groups using medical records and tumor samples. The goal is to learn how these genes affect treatment success, which could guide future care for men at higher genetic risk.
