Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to further elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying prostate cancer disparities. In previous work the investigators have identified a set of differentially deregulated genes in African American versus Caucasian American prostate cancer. Based on these findings, they hypothesize that they will be able to validate these targets, originally identified in the previous work conducted at The George Washington University Medical Center, in an independent Duke University Medical Center cohort of prostate cancer specimens. In addition, the investigators hypothesize that they will be able to discover novel targets in the Duke University Medical Center cohort of prostate cancer specimens because of regional differences.
