Evaluation of Molecular Forms of PSA and Human Kallikrein 2 in a Cohort of Patients With Locally Resected Prostate Cancer But Biochemical Recurrence

The purpose of this study is to investigate if a new blood test looking at PSA and a group of PSA related proteins in a patient's blood can indicate which men after surgery with a rising PSA could benefit from treatment, and/or indicate which men are at higher risk for recurrence before initial treatment is given.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • All patients treated with radical prostatectomy that develop a rising serum PSA ≥ 0.05ng/ml and have not received any kind of additional therapy.
  • Patients who have had additional therapy post radical prostatectomy are eligible for this study if ≥1 year has passed since treatment and the patient develops a rising serum PSA ≥0.05ng/ml.

Exclusion criteria

  • No evidence of rising PSA
  • Patients unwilling to undergo venesection

Treatment and study plan

Blood Draw

Other

Venous blood will be collected in an EDTA Vacutainer tubeup to 10 mL and will be immediately put on ice. This sample may be drawn as a stand-alone blood draw. Samples will be centrifuged at 1900g (3000-3200 RPM) for 15 Minutes and the serum aliquoted into freezer vials and stored at -80°C until analysis. In addition patients who have not received treatment for biochemical recurrence after their first draw are eligible for subsequent draws to determine the reproducibility of the test over time.

Primary outcomes

  1. profile of a panel of kallikrein related serine proteases in the blood

    Time frame: 2 years

    of patients that present with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy.
