Prostate Cancer Genetics Project

Why is this study important?

  • Data have shown that prostate cancer may cluster in some families.

  • Men with a family history of prostate cancer are at an increased risk for developing the disease.

  • Prostate cancer risk increases as the total number of affected family members increases.

  • The only way to conquer prostate cancer is through an increased understanding of the disease.

  • Scientific research is the key to learning more about how to detect and treat prostate cancer.
