Summary

The investigators hypothesize that this single-cell analysis can be used to evaluate prostate needle-core biopsies prospectively even in non-homogenous samples by providing profiles of proteomic and phenotypic signatures. These profiles will in turn enable better predictions of the malignant progression of prostate cancers in the settings of current clinical practice.

PROCEDURE

Prostate Fusion Biopsy

For subjects with scheduled fusion biopsies, we propose a research plan to acquire additional biopsy cores for research purposes without impacting clinical protocol. After acquiring clinically-necessary biopsies, we propose taking an additional research biopsy to establish a matched-pair of clinical and research samples.
