A Genetics Perspective On Prostate Cancer
... To date, the most definitive risk factors for prostate cancer are age, race/ethnicity, and family history. The disease affects primarily older men, with men over the age of 65 at highest risk (Zwang et al., 2003). Approximately 32% of all patients are diagnosed before the age of 65 (Ostrander, Marki ...
