NCI “Director’s Challenge” Program

for the Molecular Characterization
of Early Stage Prostate Cancer

A MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH STUDY
SPONSORED BY THE NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE

cDNA array methods and laser capture microscopy are used to determine expression profiles. This information is correlated with clinical profiles from patients specifically recruited into this study. We need YOUR help. Please see how you can participate by exploring the menu below.
