Abstract

See full text

In particular, disclosed is a method for treating a patient with prostate cancer that involves genotyping a nucleic acid sample from the subject for one or more single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) alleles in one or more genes angiogenesis, comparing the one or more SNP alleles to control allele frequencies to produce a SNP signature, and analyzing the SNP signature to generate a risk score. The risk score can represent the likelihood that the patient's prostate cancer will recur following radical prostatectomy. In particular embodiments, a high risk score in a patient with positive margins is an indication of a high risk of prostate cancer recurrence.
