Comparing the Reliability of Expressed Prostatic Secretion (EPS) and Post Massage Urine (PMU) for the Prediction of Prostate Cancer Biopsy Outcome
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This randomized pilot phase I trial studies the best way, either expressed prostatic secretion (EPS) or post massage urine (PMU) biomarkers, of predicting biopsy results in patients undergoing prostate biopsy. Studying samples of urine in the laboratory may help doctors detect prostate cancer. It is not yet known whether EPS or PMU biomarkers are more effective in predicting prostate biopsy results
