Accounting for genetic factors may improve PSA testing
By LabPulse.com staff writers
Presenter Linda Kachuri, PhD, of the University of California, San Francisco, and colleagues investigated whether particular genetic factors could cause variations in PSA levels that are not due to cancer, and whether accounting for these could improve PSA testing. They conducted a study that included 95,000 men with diagnosed prostate cancer from cohorts in the U.S., the U.K., and Sweden and identified 128 PSA-associated variants they used to "build a polygenic score for PSA levels."
