Prolaris Prostate Cancer Prognostic Test

Gain clarity in your prostate cancer treatment management

Prolaris® helps you understand your unique prostate cancer with a simple result that can guide the best treatment for you

Deeper insights

Clearer results

Confident choices

Understanding your prostate cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming

Determining the cancer’s behaviour influences the treatment plan. Over-treatment can lead to unnecessary side effects, while under-treatment can allow the cancer to progress.

Prolaris® has the answers you need

Prolaris® is the most comprehensive and accurate genomic test1,2 that empowers you and your doctor to make informed treatment decisions.

Deeper insights

Discover your long-term prognosis with Prolaris®, a genomic test that adds an extra layer of predictive power compared to PSA and Gleason score.1

Clearer results

Combines all the information about your tumour into one, easy-to-understand result that shows the best treatment approach for you.

Confident choices

Gain peace of mind and confidence in your chosen treatment, knowing that Prolaris® is shown to accurately predict long-term outcomes.1-13

For confidence now and in the future

PSA and Gleason scores used as prognostic factors are not accurate enough to tell you how your cancer will progress. Prolaris® measures the activity of cell cycle progression (CCP) genes to determine the behaviour of your prostate cancer now and in the future. Combined with PSA and Gleason score, Prolaris® provides a more comprehensive view of your prostate cancer.1,2

1

Your doctor sends a sample from your biopsy tissue to measure the activity of CCP genes in your cancer.

2

The lab uses Prolaris®, which includes your individual cancer genetic profile to show the risk of your cancer returning within 10 years.

3

Once results are available in around 2 weeks, they are sent securely to your doctor’s office. Your doctor will help you understand the results and make an informed treatment decision together.

Take control of your prostate cancer

Prolaris® is proven to be accurate and safe in trials involving over 11,000 patients.1-19 It’s also proven to work for patients across all risk groups.

Deeper insights

Prolaris® is a breakthrough in prostate cancer genomic testing. It goes further than traditional tests by looking at the specific genes in your cancer.1,2,20 This provides a more comprehensive view of your prostate cancer, allowing for a truly personalized treatment plan.

Clearer results

Understanding the nature of your prostate cancer is crucial in deciding the right treatment path. Prolaris® provides this clarity by determining your cancer’s behavior. The test result shows the risk of your prostate cancer getting worse within 10 years, giving you and your doctor the confidence to choose the right treatment.

Confident choices

Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to your health.

Prolaris® empowers you with detailed insights about your prostate cancer, enabling you to take an active role in your treatment decisions.

Your doctor can help answer your questions on Prolaris® and guide you through the testing process. You can also browse informative articles, research papers, and guides to help you understand more about prostate cancer and the Prolaris® test.
