Proportion of Gleason Score ≥8 Prostate Cancer on Biopsy and Tumor Aggressiveness in Matched Cohorts of East Asian and Non-East Asian Men

This contemporary study demonstrates that East Asian men are equally as likely to harbor aggressive PCa on biopsy as non-East Asian men at PSA levels observed in screening programs, with no difference in disease aggressiveness after RP. The assumption that unfavorable PCa at diagnosis is more common but less aggressive in East Asians should be revisited and viewed in the context of the expected increase in the PCa burden worldwide.

Abstract

This contemporary study demonstrates that East Asian men are equally as likely to harbor aggressive PCa on biopsy as non-East Asian men at PSA levels observed in screening programs, with no difference in disease aggressiveness after RP. The assumption that unfavorable PCa at diagnosis is more common but less aggressive in East Asians should be revisited and viewed in the context of the expected increase in the PCa burden worldwide.
