This study aims to find normal PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels for trans and non-binary people who have a prostate and are on hormone therapy or have had certain surgeries. Your participation could help improve future cancer screening guidelines for your community.
This trial tests a program to help doctors use PSA tests based on evidence. It looks at whether a cluster meeting can improve how PSA tests are used in general practice.
This trial tests whether an alert in your electronic health record helps more people get PSA screening for prostate cancer. If you are a man at average or high risk, this study may help ensure you are screened appropriately.
This study looks at ways to predict whether prostate cancer is present in men age 70 and older who have concerning PSA blood test results. If you qualify, you may have standard exams and a biopsy, and your information may help improve prediction for future patients.
This study looks for new urine markers (signals) that could help screen for prostate cancer. If you have a higher PSA blood test and are scheduled for a prostate biopsy, your urine sample may be studied to see if it can improve screening.
This study allows people with prostate cancer to get a special PET scan that finds cancer cells. The scan helps doctors plan the best treatment. You may qualify if your PSA is rising or you have high-risk prostate cancer.
