This paper develops a germline polygenic score (PRSagg) to predict prostate cancer aggressiveness and validates it across multiple datasets.

The paper improves prostate cancer risk stratification across multiple ancestries using a new polygenic hazard score with additional SNPs, showing higher hazard ratios and positive predictive value for clinically significant prostate cancer.

This study evaluates a polygenic hazard score in multi-ethnic populations and finds it is associated with age at prostate cancer diagnosis, aggressive diagnosis, and death across European, Asian, and African ancestries.

This study improves a polygenic hazard score for prostate cancer by adding 120 SNPs, enhancing hazard ratios but not positive predictive value of PSA testing.

This paper evaluates how sample size affects polygenic hazard score models for prostate cancer, finding that 20-30k samples are needed for discovery models, but 10k suffice if SNPs are pre-established.

The paper evaluates a polygenic hazard score for prostate cancer screening, showing it improves positive predictive value by adjusting screening age based on genetic risk.

This study integrates a large prostate cancer GWAS with gene expression data to identify 235 genes associated with risk, prioritizing causal genes through Bayesian credible sets.

This paper develops a genetic risk score to personalize prostate cancer screening age based on polygenic hazard scores and validates its predictive power in a separate dataset.
