Purpose: New biomarkers for prostate cancer are needed. We determined whether a novel serum marker, total PSP94 can be used to accomplish these goals.Materials and Methods: We conducted a case-control study of 1,212 men with no previous history of pr

Purpose: We examined a panel of 13 polymorphisms in 13 different genes to determine whether specific genotypes can help predict prostate cancer at the time of biopsy among men prescreened with prostate-specific antigen and digital rectal exam. Experi

Serum insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) levels at the higher end of the reference range have been associated with increased risk for the future development of prostate cancer. We determined whether high serum IGF-I levels are associated with preca

Purpose: We examined the relationship between a mutant (T) for wild-type (C) allele substitution of the human kallikrein-2 gene (KLK2), circulating human kallikrein-2 (hK2) levels and prostate cancer risk. Patients and Methods: We studied 1,287 conse

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality in North America. In addition to tobacco smoking, inherited genetic factors can also influence the development of lung cancer. These genetic factors may lead to biologically distinct subsets

There is a large amount of confusion in interpreting prostate specific antigen (PSA) values for prostate cancer. More precise risk assessments for prostate cancer detection are needed for men faced with an abnormal PSA.We studied a sample of 2,637 me

The clinical usefulness of PSA for prostate cancer screening is unclear, although the test remains in common use. New methods to interpret PSA are needed.We examined a cohort of 2,637 men who underwent prostate biopsies for abnormal DRE or PSA betwee

11057 Background: BRM, a key catalytic subunit of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex, is a putative tumor susceptibility gene in NSCLC. Loss of BRM expression occurs in 15% of NSCLC, and has been linked to adverse outcome. Recently, our group h
