Discovery of primary prostate cancer biomarkers using cross cancer learning

Abstract Prostate cancer (PCa), the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, is a relatively slow-growing malignancy with multiple early treatment options. Yet, a significant number of low-risk PCa patients are over-diagnosed and over-treated with significant and long-term quality of li...

Our validation results have further shown that the discovered biomarkers can predict the disease state better than any randomly selected subset of differentially expressed prostate cancer genes.Kaiyue ZhouSuzan ArslanturkDouglas B.
