Abstract
Objective criteria are required for prostate cancer (PCa) risk assessment, treatment decisions, evaluation of therapy, and initial indications of recurrence. Circulating microRNAs were utilized as biomarkers to distinguish PCa patients from cancer-free subjects or those encountering benign prostate hyperplasia. A panel of 60 microRNAs was developed with established roles in PCa initiation, progression, metastasis, and recurrence. Utilizing the FirePlex® platform for microRNA analysis, we demonstrated the efficacy and reproducibility of a rapid, high-throughput, serum-based assay for PCa biomarkers that circumvents the requirement for extraction and fractionation of patient specimens supporting feasibility for expanded clinical research and diagnostic applications.
