Your Prostate Health Index test results will provide you with scores ranked as within range or out of range for the three tests that make up the phi score. These tests are: PSA: PSA (prostate specific antigen) is a protein that is produced by prostate cells. In this case, PSA represents...
Currently, accepted clinical methods to diagnose clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa) are a combination of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, digital rectal exam, trans-rectal ultrasound (TRUS), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, PSA screening leads to over-diagnosis, whic...
Prostate specific antigen (PSA/KLK3) is known to be the chief executor of the fragmentation of semenogelins, dissolution of semen coagulum, thereby releasing sperm for active motility. Recent research has found that semenogelins also play significant roles in sperm fertility by affecting hyaluronidas...
Using digital rectal examination (DRE) combined with the PSA (prostate specific antigen) test, most prostate cancer cases are now detected at an early stage. However, due to the lack of accurate tests to distinguish aggressive cancers from indolent tumors, prostate cancer is often over-treated. ...
Over the last 2 decades, prostate cancer (PCA) screening using the prostate specific antigen (PSA) test exposed the complexities and challenges associated with early screening for a common cancer [1]. PCA is a heterogeneous disease with a long natural history and a wide range of prognostic outc...

The NCCN has recognized the PHI, 4K Score, ExoDx Intelliscore, My Prostate Score, Select MDx, and ConfirmMDx (a tissue confirmation test). Diagnostic Tests Blood-Based Biomarkers Prostate-specific antigen:PSA, a member of the kallikrein gene family, was first identified and isolated in 1979.[...
On the basis of the findings from the landscape analysis, Movember will now have an increased focus on addressing the specific research needs that have been identified, with particular investment in research efforts that reduce disease progression and lead to improved therapies for advanced prostate ...
The cohort of patients for HN and CR cancer were selected for analysis if they initially responded to hormone treatment (response was defined by prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels decreasing by at least 50%), but subsequently relapsed (two consecutive increases in PSA of >10%) and had a...
