Scientists hunt for genetic clues to prostate Cancer's next move

NCT ID NCT00937586

Summary

This study aims to discover if certain genes make a person more likely to develop prostate cancer and, if they do get it, more likely to have it spread. Researchers are collecting DNA, blood, and tissue samples from nearly 2,000 men with prostate cancer to analyze their genes. The goal is to gather knowledge that could help doctors better predict a patient's risk and improve future treatments.
