Genomic Testing


The testing of a person's entire genome (all of their genes), including interactions of those genes with each other and with the person's environment. Genomic testing may identify changes in chromosomes, genes, or proteins and can be performed on both biopsy tissue and on tissue from an entire prostate following a prostatectomy.

Adjuvant


Treatment given after the primary treatment to increase the chance of a cure. Usually involves chemotherapy or radiation.

Genetic Testing


The testing of genes and heredity and how certain traits and qualities are passed to offspring from parents as a result of changes in DNA sequence. The results of a genetic test can confirm or rule out a suspected genetic condition, help determine a person's chance of developing or passing on a genetic disorder, and provide information on how the cancer might behave. Genetic testing is useful in many areas of medicine and can change the medical care you or your family member receives.

Biochemical recurrence


Biochemical recurrence is a rise of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels in the blood of a prostate cancer patient after treatment with surgery or radiation. Biochemical recurrence may occur in patients who do not have symptoms. It may mean that the cancer has come back.

Immunotherapy


Uses the power of the body's own immune system to treat cancer. Can be used for many types of cancer, either alone or in combination with other treatments.

Metastatic


Cancer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the bones, lymph nodes, lungs or liver.

nmCRPC


Non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. nmCRPC is prostate cancer that does not respond to hormone treatment but is still contained within the prostate and has not spread to other parts of the body.

Neoadjuvant


Treatment given before the primary treatment. Usually involves chemotherapy or radiation.

mCRPC


Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. mCRPC is a form of advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone treatments, shows signs of growth, and has spread to other parts of the body.
