Prostate cancer age-standardised incidence increase between 2006 and 2016 in Gauteng Province, South Africa: A laboratory data-based analysis

Black African men were significantly more likely to present with PCa with a GS ≥8 (GG4 and GG5) compared with the other racial groups in Gauteng. The ASIR increased dramatically during the study period, perhaps as a result of increased screening and awareness. There is a need for additional research to better understand why black African men present with higher-grade disease.
