pubmed:abstractText |
To improve the specificity in prostate cancer diagnosis and to prevent unnecessary prostate biopsies, especially in the serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) "gray zone" between 3 and 15 ng/mL, the implementation of prostate cancer-specific markers is urgently needed. The recently discovered prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) is such a promising prostate cancer marker. In a previous single institution study, the PCA3 urine test clearly proved to be of diagnostic value. Therefore, the diagnostic performance of the PCA3 urine test was validated in a multicenter study.
