Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a review of previously published data from a large prostate cancer prevention study known as REDUCE. It is the investigators intention to review whether prostate specific antigen (PSA) velocity (change over time) will predict the presence of prostate cancer and its grade and stage (severity).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a review of previously published data from a large prostate cancer prevention study known as REDUCE that utilized a 5 ARI, dutasteride. It is the investigators intention to review whether PSA velocity (change over time) will predict the presence of prostate cancer and its grade and stage (severity) by two year biopsy. The investigator will review and compare data to a previously published study of similar design with finasteride.
