Participation in Procurement of Tissue, Serum, Plasma, Cell Bank, DNA and RNA Samples, and Urine for Biological Studies Related to Prostate Cancer and Prostate Cancer Treatment Follow Up

January 9, 2013 updated by: Robert Karnes, Mayo Clinic

This research study is being done to collect regular and routine follow-up information related to the outcome of treatment for prostate cancer.

This study is also being done to relate treatment outcome to measurement of substances in the blood such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and other markers. Also environmental and genetic factors that might be responsible for prostate cancer are being investigated.

Active Surveillance. 6. Prostate biopsy patients. The inclusion criterion for group 6 is that the patient is scheduled to undergo a prostate biopsy for the purposes of definitive prostate cancer diagnosis. There are no exclusion criteria for group 6.

  2. Age ≥18 years
  3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 2 or better, or Karnofsky performance of 60% or better.
  4. Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate within 10 years of study entry.
  5. Willingness to return to Mayo Clinic Rochester for follow-up or participate in mail-in PSA processing.
  6. Must be disease-free from a previous diagnosis of cancer for a period of time = 5 years excluding cutaneous malignancies of squamous cell or basal cell carcinoma.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Life expectancy < 5 years.
  2. Inability to return to Mayo Rochester for follow-up appointments, sera, and urine collection per protocol.
