Overview

In the ProtecT trial, over 1600 men with PSA-detected localized prostate cancer were assigned to active monitoring, prostatectomy, or radiotherapy. Although more patients assigned to active monitoring had disease progression, overall survival was similar in the three groups. The management of clinically localized prostate cancer that is detected on the basis of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels remains controversial. In the United States alone, an estimated 180,890 cases will be diagnosed in 2016, and 26,120 men will die from the disease. 1 The widespread use of PSA testing has resulted in a dramatic increase in the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer, but many men do not benefit from intervention because the disease is either indolent or disseminated at diagnosis. Prostate cancer often progresses slowly, and many men die of competing causes. In addition, interventions for prostate cancer can have . . .
