Study Summary

This prospective, non-therapeutic translational biomarker study will collect blood in patients with high risk localized prostate cancer prior to prostatectomy.

Primary Outcome

Detection of ctDNA by assay in blood collected prior to radical prostatectomy using the Vogelstein lab assay. This assay is a highly sensitive, tumor-informed method of detecting circulating free DNA (cfDNA) shed by solid tumors that has shown prognostic value for recurrence and predictive for benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy.
