Read MoreA recent meta-analysis published in the July 2016 European Association of Urology journal found consistently higher mortality rates for patients diagnosed with localized prostate cancer who were treated with radiation rather than surgery.
Read MoreCancer researchers have applied a comprehensive set of analytical tools to lethal cases of metastatic prostate cancer, yielding a detailed map of the complex networks of interactions among genes and proteins that enable prostate cancer cells to proliferate and evade treatment.
Read MoreMen with very high-risk prostate cancer, who are treated at hospitals with a high proportion of administered radical local treatment (radiotherapy or prostatectomy), only have half of the mortality risk of men who are treated at hospitals with the lowest proportion.
Read MoreFred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center has found that high-dose supplementation with both the trace element selenium and vitamin E increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer.
Read MoreA newly discovered connection between two common prostate cancer treatments may soon make prostate cancer cells easier to destroy.
Read MoreAn enlarged prostate also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), has been treated in various ways with one of them being the use of the dietary supplement saw palmetto.
Read MoreCancer researchers have developed a computational approach for analyzing patient-specific data to help doctors choose the most effective drugs for individual patients.
Read MoreWhen a man schedules a prostate specific antigen test (PSA), there are certain activities he needs to avoid right before the test that can affect the results.
Read MoreMost men like a plan of action and here is a dietary plan all men should embrace that could curtail their chance of developing prostate cancer.
