The predictive value of prostate cancer biomarkers depends on age and time to diagnosis: towards a biologically-based screening strategy.
Both benign and malignant prostate diseases elevate total prostate-specific antigen (tPSA), and the incidence of benign disease increases markedly with age. There is evidence, however, that free-to-total PSA ratio (%fPSA) and human kallikrein 2 (hK2) more closely reflect the malignant process. We te...
