Immunoassay for the discrimination of free prostate-specific antigen (fPSA) forms with internal cleavages at Lys(₁₄₅) or Lys(₁₄₆) from fPSA without internal cleavages at Lys(₁₄₅) or Lys(₁₄₆).

Total levels of circulating prostate-specific antigen (tPSA) are strongly associated with prostate cancer (PCa) risk and outcome but benign prostate disease is the most frequent cause of a moderately elevated PSA level. Free PSA (fPSA) forms are independently associated with PCa risk and contribute...
