Brief Summary
Can tumor cells and tumor DNA be sampled from blood samples from prostate cancer patients? Is it possible to understand the causal relationship between the occurrence of the tumor cells and the tumor DNA in the blood by reviewing the patient's medical records, including information about investigations, analytical reports or diagnoses? Can gene defects that may be useful in predicting the best treatment be detected by sequencing individual tumor cells or plasma from blood samples?

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Single cell DNA sampling
Can tumor cells and tumor DNA be sampled from blood samples from prostate cancer patients with various advanced disease?
September 2019 to December 31st, 2020
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Comparison of novel sampling results to established biomarkers
September 2019 to December 31st, 2020
Single cell DNA sequencing
September 2019 to December 31st, 2020
Study Arms (4)
Localised prostate cancer
Patients diagnosed with prostate cancer of moderate estimated risk suitable for and scheduled for prostatectomy with gland evacuation
Stage 3 prostate cancer
Patients with diagnosed stage 3 prostate cancer
Stage 4 prostate cancer
Patients with diagnosed stage 4 prostate cancer
Healthy controls
Age-matched healthy individuals free from diagnosed cancer, but with benign inflammatory prostatitis or other benign urological condition
Interventions
Biomimetic circulating epithelial cell enrichment followed by epithelial cell detection and single cell DNA sampling and sequencing
Eligibility Criteria
Patients referred to the urology clinic for investigation of a suspected urologic condition
You may qualify if:
- patients diagnosed with prostate cancer of moderate risk planned for prostatectomy with lymph node removal, or
- patients diagnosed with prostate cancer stage 3, or
- patients with diagnosed prostate cancer stage 4, or
- patients with diagnosed benign inflammatory prostatitis or other benign urological condition constituting age-matched, cancer free, controls
You may not qualify if:
- Patients undergoing prostate cancer treatment (no prostate cancer treatment should be given to the patient before blood collection)
- Patients with previous malignancy
