First seen Nov 16, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study looks at whether non-invasive tests—like blood, urine, and genetic analysis—can help track prostate cancer progression without repeated biopsies. Researchers will follow 500 men with low, intermediate, or high-risk prostate cancer as they receive standard care. The goal is to find biomarkers that signal when the disease is getting worse, potentially reducing the need for invasive procedures.
