    摘要: Described herein are methods and kits for prognosis of prostate cancer in a subject. The methods comprises: (a) determining the ratio of PCA3 and PSA expression in a urine sample and (b) correlating the value of the PCA3/PSA ratio with the aggressiveness and mortality risk of prostate cancer in the subject. Kits for prognosing prostate cancer are also described. More particularly, the present invention features a method for prognosing prostate cancer in a biological sample of a patient comprising: assessing the amount of a prostate cancer specific PCA3 mRNA and the amount of PSA in the biological sample; determining a ratio value of this amount of prostate cancer specific PCA3 mRNA over the amount of PSA; comparing the ratio value to at least one predetermined cut-off value, wherein a ratio value above the predetermined cut-off value is indicative of a higher risk of mortality of prostate cancer as compared to a ratio value below the predetermined cut-off value.

    摘要: The present invention relates, in general, to prostate cancer. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method to diagnose prostate cancer in a patient by detecting a PCA3 sequence, and more particularly a PCA3 RNA, the PCA3 sequence detected in a sample from the patient being specifically associated with prostate cancer. In a particular embodiment the method and kit enables an amplification of a PCA3 RNA through an exon-exon junction of a spliced PCA3 mRNA. The invention also relates to methods and kits to detect such an amplified PCA3 RNA, using a probe which spans the amplified exon-exon junction. In particular the methods and kits are designed to detect a PCA3 RNA which lacks one intron or more, and in particular case is intron-less. The invention further relates to a method of detecting PCA3 RNA expressed in non-prostate tissue or cells of the urinary tract, that comprises PCA3 intron 3.
