When to test
When to test with Prolaris
Any patient diagnosed with prostate cancer is a good candidate for Prolaris testing. Since all men with prostate cancer have already received a prostate biopsy, there is no need to undergo any additional biopsies in order to get testing with Prolaris.
When to test with MyRisk
Up to 1 in 6 men with prostate cancer have an inherited genetic mutation that may have caused their cancer. Hereditary cancer testing is the only way to identify if you have an inherited mutation, which could dramatically impact your cancer treatment.
