Impact of CCP test on personalizing treatment decisions: Results from a prospective registry of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients.

2015 
63 Background: The cell cycle progression (CCP) test is a validated molecular assay that assesses risk of prostate cancer−specific disease progression and mortality when combined with standard clinicopathologic parameters. PROCEDE−1000 is the largest prospective registry to evaluate CCP test impact on personalizing prostate cancer treatment. Results of an interim analysis are presented. Methods: Untreated patients with newly diagnosed (≤6 months), clinically localized prostate adenocarcinoma were enrolled (n=816). The physician’s initial therapy recommendation (pre−CCP) was recorded on the first questionnaire. The CCP test was then conducted on prostate biopsy tissue. Three post−CCP questionnaires recorded the physician’s revised treatment recommendation, physician/patient treatment decision, and actual treatment administered. Changes in treatments between the pre-CCP and post−CCP questionnaires demonstrated the impact of CCP testing on treatment decisions at each stage. Results: Visual analog scale measu...
