Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in the United States. African American men, particularly those with a family history of prostate cancer, have the highest incidence and the highest death rate of all men nationwide. A study was recently conducted which showed that men whose brothers or fathers had prostate cancer are at a 2-3 fold increased risk of getting prostate cancer. In this study, some families were identified that had multiple family members affected with prostate cancer. Our goal is to provide information and data to researchers who are studying genetic make up of these families in order to better understand how this disease may be inherited. You have been asked to participate in this project because you are a physician with prostate cancer patients or your family has several members affected with prostate cancer.
